That is not canceled culture- getting the very predictable and commiserate outcome to thine actions.

Conservatives want consequence-free zones for their statements.
They want all the good things they expect with their thoughtless and hurtful words.

Even though they put the negative into the world.

You and I at work-understand filters are relevant in our workplace. So do they!
