"The Cancel Culture" meme is just the new "Fake News" right wing smoke and mirrors act.

[Botany]

"They" brought up Cancel Culture after social media platforms decided and with good reasons
to take down the Russian Propaganda, Right Wing Neo Nazi Crap, and Trump and others lies
that election was stolen from Trump and starting in 2015 Trump and the right used "Fake News"
to obscure that Trump, the GOP, and Russia were working to rig the upcoming elections.

The right can not win on facts so they have to muddy the waters with side issues many of
which they just make up. See Hillary's emails, ANTIFA (I don't think it really exists), Benghazi,
Al Gore claimed he invented the internet, voter ID to stop voter fraud (which really doesn't happen),
and anything that Fox, News Max, and so are are complaining about in order to get their base
pissed off @ "the Libs."

Remember if they got rid of the electoral college the Ds would have won every Presidential election
from 1992 to now. I know they have the TV stations, the hate talk radio, the Christian Evangelical
pastors and followers, and the racist mouth breathers but we have more of us then they have of
"them." The use of the term Cancel Culture shows just how weak and scared they really are.

Then again I could be wrong about everything because @ sometime in my life I liked Joe Paterno,
Woody Allen, and Bill Cosby.

8. What interests me is that so many of their complaints

involve private individuals or corporations making changes to proprietary products in order to protect or improve sales.

Aside from entities truly concerned with ethical values, many companies see which way the wind blows and want to protect their bottom line by "canceling" things like the Aunt Jemima label which they can see is going to negatively influence sales now and in the future.

I thought Republicans supported free enterprise and the power of the market.

10. Yep

I can't tell you how many comments I've seen on news articles that contain a variation of "Why are they trying to cancel all of this stuff??" (Usually from old white people - full disclosure, I'm an old white person).

These folks seem to have an image of a panel of old, wise men with long beards who sit up in the clouds and look around and say "OK, let's tackle Dr. Seuss next."

Do they really think there is some amorphous "they," the same group, doing ALL of this? That's similar to the QAnon theory, I think, that there is some shadowy "they" in charge. It's ridiculous.

And of course, they don't talk about Republicans cancelling the Dixie Chicks, or Nike, or French fries, or athletes who knelt in protest.
