Hilarious to those posters (we all know who) speak out against it and try and blame conservatives
Well if that's the way you feel....CANCELLED!

We live in a time where everyone has unprecedented access to publicly state their opinions; and where we all consume ungodly amounts of information (real or fake).
We also live in a time where everyone has a remarkably inflated opinion of themselves.
To survive the 21st Century: don't be a dick, focus on your own life, avoid politics outside the home, and get over the idea your opinions matter at all. As a sidebar: don't assume everyone wants to sleep with you.
The chances you've picked out any meaningful information or formed a coherent opinion based on the deluge of unverified information you've probably read off an image macro or a listicle is approximately zero.
So everyone's best bet is to stop speaking on subjects they don't have first-hand knowledge of. Can't be cancelled then!

Exactly my thought when seeing the Walmart logo on the "list"... What?... Like, how?

Denver, CO, a current hot spot.MLB moved the All Star Game out of Georgia to protest that state's newest regressive voting laws. It's a rare breath of fresh air from a normally conservative, stodgy billionaires' club of baseball owners.
I rewarded MLB by buying a subscription for the season. (I used to watch their free game of the day from time to time).
Denver will host the mid-summer classic.

I think it’s a not hateful enough list. Walmart supports their trans workers. My “extra” child, MtF, works for them. Transitioning publicly.

Walmart was boycotted by the right wing at the behest of Mr Trump:
(WILX) - Walmart will no longer have guns and ammunition on the sales floor of some stores amid civil unrest in several states. ... In 2018, Walmart raised the minimum age to buy firearms and ammunition from 18 to 21. In 2015, Walmart stopped selling assault-style weapons. Copyright 2020 WILX.

Good deal. I'll have an easier time social distancing.

This.
Ive been called a "racist" on here so many times, simply because I don't agree with the logic that this handful of ~8 people present.
Its weird how someone can simply say "Im tired of cancel culture." and immediately, that same small, vocal handful of people rush to defend it without really examining his talking points.
Its like playing a game of "Find the SJW."

Is it cancel culture, or is it holding one accountable for their words and action?

I'm a pretty strict Progressive. Switched from Democrat to Independent right after 45 got in office...
Some are 'tired' of cancel culture. Me? I'm tired of hypocrites. I don't "cancel", I boycott. Flat out. IT IS THE ONLY TOOL WE HAVE. PERIOD. Voting does not work. When Citizens United was rammed down our throats by our 'elected leaders'. Corporations were given the green light to be the government.
When the Tennessee Turtle said "companies should stay out of politics" I almost threw up in my mouth. Of course minutes later he then said donation are still wanted...
Should I make a list of Right Wing boycotts? Naw... you don't care. But here it is anyway:
All the Things You Can No Longer Buy if You’re a True MAGA Trump Fan
its cancel culture.
I’m a white male. I’ve expressed in another thread that I’m mostly attracted to other white people—obviously there are always exceptions, and I’ve dated people of other races, but that’s who I’m just find myself attracted to MOST of the time. And I’ve been called a racist for it.
explain that.
Keep in mind, I’m not saying “other races are ugly” or “I’d never date another race because they’re somehow inferior.” And I certainly treat all my friends fairly outside the bedroom.
do you think I should be “held accountable” for simply dating another person who is white?

TMI... No one asked you or cares about your dating preferences. The topic of this thread is NOT about YOU!
A/B
Im not trying to make it about me. Im giving an obvious example of cancel culture that is prevalent here, and asking: Do you believe I deserve to be labelled as a racist simply for acknowledging that I tend to find white people attractive more often?
If you do, thats cancel culture. Not this "holding one accountable for ones actions" bullshit you guys are peddling.
If you were to do that to someone who used the N-word on a public forum, Id totally agree with you, and demanded that he be held accountable/publicly ostracized for his actions. But to do it to someone simply for what theyre attracted to? Cancel culture is going too far.

Of course not. People are attracted to or not attracted to another, for a combination of multiple preferences. It's none of my business about their choices.
A/B
thank you.
there are people on these forums, and elsewhere that think otherwise. THATS the kind of cancel culture I hate.
when people do/say terrible things, I’m totally with you—name and shame. If you don’t want to deal with the consequences of doing terrible things, don’t do them in the first place.

No one asked if you were a white male. This debate has nothing to do with race. This is referring to not supporting goods or services that don't serve the greater good. My house (wallet), my rules. Start another discussion please.
He takes every chance to inject with the fact that he’s a white man and yet he’ll tell you it’s not about race for him.
