JK Rowling, Fareed Zakaria, Wynton Marsalis Decry Rising ‘Intolerance of Opposing Views’ ...

And it shows!

 

That is the real danger. Normal people just disagree. Leftists go after your livelihood, which is sick and twisted.

It’s one thing you can say for people like Joe Rogan or Ben Shapiro. They don’t give a crap what people say anymore because they own their livelihoods. They can be open about what they believe because they can’t be cancelled.

 

I find the whole cancel culture thing as just another extremist action. It used to be figurative, but some people are indeed taking it too literally. If some major corporations get outed for doing something shady, it's still on each individual to decide whether to factor that into buying or doing business with them. Even though the technology has probably been serious steroids to its growth, this culture war has been a back and forth for decades. I still remember the "moral majority" trying to censor free speech over Penthouse, or Tipper Gore and her crusade against the music industry, or how about that crazy-ass a period in the 80's when we had police agencies (at all levels) chasing witches and Satanists in the burbs?

Yeah, after a while, you know you've seen this show before.
