The CANCEL CULTURE



I know we have lots of threads about what is happening in our world  ... what has been going on for a while now, but currently (and likely forever)  has ramped up to breakneck speed



I wanted to do one specifically for "CANCELLED"



"CANCELLED" for thinking what you think ...



"CANCELLED" for writing what you think ...



"CANCELLED" simply for being "you" and what you believe ..



and / or conversely, CANCELLED because  it's counter to what those in power (political, media, internet etc.) want they want you to be ..   and want you to think .. and want you to say .. and want you to do



(or put the other way .. CANCELLED for what they do not want you to be who you are, think, say, and do)





"you to be" above was underlined by spellchecker as I typed and offered up  .. yup ... you guessed it .. "youtube"






Plaggared .. but I'm putting this one  here

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Well, here's a youtube ..  till it gets CANCELLED .. cancelled because he does not say what they want him to be, say and think



Ariel, not even a direct T supporter,  walked to see T's White House, then went back to his hotel room  ... that's it



CANCELLED

'Revoke their Degrees' targets Kayleigh McEnany, Sen. Cruz and Rep. Crenshaw



The petition is entitled, "Revoke their Degrees," and was circulated by four students who attend Harvard's Kennedy School of Government, FOX Business has confirmed. It calls on the university to be "Prepared to take a stand for representative democracy and against violent white supremacy," by specifically revoking degrees of three Harvard graduates who are supporters of the president: White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany, Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX), and Representative Dan Crenshaw (R-TX).



All were described as "violent actors" who need to be held accountable for their alleged actions, the petition said.

Accurate weather observations are just about cancelled... Constant rain and hail today in my region but when I google for weather, it's almost entirely about how dry and record hot it is on 2020 and before links.



It's currently 7 degrees in what is supposed to be the middle of our summer...
Blahhhhhh...

I read a headline that a senior media relations spokesperson with the Edmonton Police Services is facing discipline for tweeting against lockdowns, and the Democrats hypocrisy over the Capitol illegal occupation.

[To further illustrate  the case that Canada is every bit as bad as the US on "cancel"]



https://torontosun.com/opinion/columnists/goldstein-trudeau-wants-to-turn-back-clock-on-free-speech">GOLDSTEIN: Trudeau wants to turn back clock on free speech - Appears feds really want to target speech that offends Liberals



Federal Heritage Minister Steven Guilbeault plans to introduce legislation and regulations this year to "protect Canadians online" when using social media.



Be very afraid.



"We intend a comprehensive approach with the tabling of a bill in early 2021 that will apply to the various platforms (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, etc.)," according to a briefing note from his department on "Regulation of Social Media Platforms" to "promote a safer and more inclusive online environment."



"Social media platforms," it continues, "can ... be used to threaten, intimidate, bully and harass people, or used to promote racist, anti-Semitic, Islamophobic, misogynistic and homophobic views that target communities, put people's safety at risk and undermine Canada's social cohesion or democracy." Other government documents cite child pornography



But as Blacklock's Reporter noted in reporting on the issue, we already have criminal laws against hate speech — and for that matter against child pornography, harassment, uttering threats and civil laws against libel and slander.





Because of that, it said, "we will move forward with new regulations for social media platforms, starting with a requirement that all platforms remove illegal content, including hate speech, within 24 hours or face significant financial penalties."



Given that we already have criminal and civil laws to deal with these issues, it appears what the Liberals really want to target is speech they think "undermines Canada's long-standing commitment to diversity."



That is, speech that offends Liberals.

Media, Democrats Quickly Abandoned Joe Biden's Push For 'Unity'

https://dailycaller.com/2021/01/14/media-democrats-abandoned-joe-biden-push-unity/?utm_source=piano&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=2360&pnespid=juNiu.4DCxCNtH11kzOVdcu4TCZNSpiXCOGc4v3z">https://dailycaller.com/2021/01/14/medi ... iXCOGc4v3z">https://dailycaller.com/2021/01/14/media-democrats-abandoned-joe-biden-push-unity/?utm_source=piano&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=2360&pnespid=juNiu.4DCxCNtH11kzOVdcu4TCZNSpiXCOGc4v3z



Journalist Megyn Kelly was quick to condemn those who were "sanctimoniously demanding 'civility'" after spending years attacking Trump's supporters – and it seems this call for civility has not lasted long, with renewed calls for justice and cancellations after some of Trump's supporters rioted at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6.



"Let it be known to the business world: Hire any of Trump's fellow fabulists above, and Forbes will assume that everything your company or firm talks about is a lie," Lane declared. "We're going to scrutinize, double-check, investigate with the same skepticism we'd approach a Trump tweet. Want to ensure the world's biggest business media brand approaches you as a potential funnel of disinformation? Then hire away."



The op-ed prompted Forbes Media's chairman and CEO Steve Forbes to come out and defend it. Forbes said the company believes "in diversity of opinion" and said he, personally, does not agree with Lane's push to blacklist certain Trump supporters, Fox News reported.



Similarly, some media pundits have raised rallying cries against Republicans and the president's supporters. MSNBC host Joy Reid and Nicolle Wallace pondered how the Republican Party can go about a "de-Baathification" process on Wednesday night.



"During de-Baathification in 2003, the Coalition Provisional Authority of Iraq ordered that all public-sector workers associated with the party were to be stripped of their jobs and banned from future public-sector employment. That transition government also offered rewards for information leading to 'the capture of senior members of the Baath party and individuals complicit in the crimes of the former regime,'" an article from The Federalist pointed out.



CNN's Don Lemon took a more direct approach and declared that anyone who voted for Trump is part of the Klu Klux Klan (KKK) and the Capitol rioters, as host Chris Cuomo played along.



"You're in the crowd who voted for Trump," Lemon said after Cuomo played the role of a Republican protesting to his commentary. "If you voted for Trump you voted for the person who the Klan supported. You voted for the person who Nazis support. You voted for the person who the alt-right supports. That's the crowd that you are in. You voted for the person who incited a crowd to go into the Capitol and potentially take the lives of lawmakers. Took the lives of police officers. Took the lives of innocent lives who were there on the Capitol that day.



New York Times' opinion columnist Paul Krugman also pushed blame on the entire Republican Party, declaring that the Capitol riot "was decades in the making." Krugman wrote that "G.O.P. cynics have been coddling crazies for a long time" and asserted that the "putsch" is because "one of our major political parties has become willing to tolerate and, indeed, feed right-wing political paranoia."



Conservative commentator and podcast host Ben Shapiro pointed out the double standards in Thursday's Politico Playbook newsletter. He wrote that "unity looks a lot like 'sign onto our agenda, or be lumped in with the Capitol rioters.'"



"Conservatives see the game," Shapiro added. "It doesn't matter whether you held your nose when voting for Trump; it doesn't matter if you denounced his prevarications about a 'stolen election' ... If you supported Trump in any way, you were at least partially culpable, the argument goes. It's not just Trump who deserves vitriol — it's all 74 million people who voted for him."



Shapiro pointed out some Democrats who have made comments that might go against Biden's push for a "united nation." Democratic New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, for one, suggested that Southern states are "oppressed" and must be "liberated."

Penn State professor blasts conservative student group for 'racism,' 'sexism', suggests they bear 'responsibility' for Capitol riot

https://www.theblaze.com/news/penn-professor-conservative-group-capitol-riot?utm_source=theblaze-breaking&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=20210115Trending-DOJAssasinations&utm_term=ACTIVE%20LIST%20-%20TheBlaze%20Breaking%20News">https://www.theblaze.com/news/penn-prof ... ing%20News">https://www.theblaze.com/news/penn-professor-conservative-group-capitol-riot?utm_source=theblaze-breaking&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=20210115Trending-DOJAssasinations&utm_term=ACTIVE%20LIST%20-%20TheBlaze%20Breaking%20News



A self-described "distinguished" professor at Penn State University recently rebuffed a conservative student group's request that he serve as an adviser, slamming the group for supporting "racism" and "sexism" and suggesting that they bear "some responsibility" for the riots in the U.S. Capitol last week.



Pete Hatemi, a political science professor at the university, told the Young America's Foundation group that "in order to be an unbiased instructor" he does not take part in an political movement or organization, but that even if he did, he would never align himself with a conservative group.



"But in your case, under no condition, would I support any group that has an implied or explicit support for [President] Trump, racism, sexism, or indifference to democratic values, including peace, liberty, freedom, and justice for all peoples," he wrote in an email obtained by the organization.



He then went on to bizarrely blame the organization for inciting a pro-Trump mob to breach security perimeters and storm the Capitol on Jan. 6, an incident that has resulted in the deaths of at least five people and injuries to many more.
