It is crap that both sides at the extremes of the political spectrum have pulled for years.  Thus fake outrage now from those on the right would be funny if it weren’t so stupid.

I guess we’ll just disagree on this one.

Excuse me? We’re not talking about a horse. Go back in your hole. 

 

Oh - my bad. I read the term "horse" and understood it to mean "horse."

Now a horse is cancelled?  Do those who keep pounding away at this cancel culture garbage get how stupid that sounds?  Is this really what you think will get votes?  Come on.

Let me correct it...we’re not talking to YOU! 

 

Maybe you should text him, then.  Or send a private PM.

 

You're posting on a message board where anyone can respond to any post.

We will indeed.  And yes, it is a horse.  The trainer of the Derby winner is now saying that him getting caught cheating in a horse race is cancel culture.  That is patently absurd.

Because, as you said, it’s gotten a lot worse.  Now I want you to be honest. Where is it coming from the most the past few years.  Left or right?

From your cuss laden responses I’m guessing you were commenting on this topic long before a horse’s trainer got involved. No? And regarding the trainer himself, isn’t just as ridiculous as those claiming racism at every turn? (By the way, I have no idea what the political views are of Bob the Trainer....nor do I care.)

A thread about cancel culture

 

An example of one saying cancel culture is cited

 

The thread has lost it's mind.

Define the years.  Several years ago it was the right trying to boycott the NFL and Target and Keurig and Disney and on and on.  Recently, say the last year for sure,   it is more the left.

 

Opposite sides of the same coin.  I’m pretty sure the Federalists and the Democratic-Republicans used what political clout they felt they had to sway public opinion and put pressure on businesses back in the 1700’s.  The fake outrage of those on the right is ridiculous.

 

Cheating on a horse race is cancel culture? Do right wing people honestly believe that is somehow going to gain them votes?  Can you not stand up and shout out how absurd that is?

Who mentioned the horse?

I did.  As an example of the absurdity of this nonsense.

Define the years?  January 12 2018 at 3:46pm until now. 🙄

 

So you agree that it’s mostly from the left. Good!  And it’s not been just the past year.  I would consider the first case of it that got the most media attention was the bake shop that refused to bake a cake for a gay wedding in Colorado.  That was 2012!  So just because you’ve just now become aware does not mean it has just happened.  
 

And I know you mentioned the horse.  I was trying to her 716 to realize he was chastising Deek for no reason.  And yes that is an absurd case that few are calling cancel culture.

I can't tell if you agree or disagree with me.  Yes, the Colorado stuff was yet another example.  As I stated, you can go back throughout US history to find examples of those of a specific political persuasion trying to influence individuals and businesses towards their political viewpoint.  That is why the right crying and moaning about being "woke" or  "cancel culture" is so ridiculous - they do and have done the same thing.

Good Lord. We are NOT talking about going back through US history.  We are talking about it NOW!  And how it's coming mostly from the LEFT.  Do you agree or disagree that it's not only much more prevalent now but it's much more dangerous?  People are afraid to speak their minds for fear of losing their livelihood.  If you don't understand that then I can't help you.  It's not ridiculous.
