Congrats Democrats! You did it. You cured racism. You cancelled Aunt Jemima. How very proud you must all be.

An accurate headline would be:

Wrongheaded policies by liberals result in rise in black unemployment

Who's mad? I'm in awe at the stupidity of your buddies on the left. If anything, the left is mad at "a cheap label" and therefore wants it cancelled.

Is this the thread where you pretend that cancel culture doesn't exist, and this is a one off?

Oh don't kid yourself, all kinds of people get mad about changes to things that are meaningless.

I never said it didn't exist, but I'll let you know when something I give a shite about gets cancelled. Bec cheap syrup labels aint it.

It's truly sad and pathetic when a company's brand of a person is considered "racist" by the weakest minds of society, and said company then MUST change said brand or face protests. These "protests" often turn into riots by your fellow leftists.

I'm sure you have no problem with companies or individuals being forced to change their brands, logos, opinions due to threat of protest/riot/force.

When conservatives start demanding and forcing VICE network/HBO/CNN to cancel their programming and begin airing small government, personal responsibility centric shows, and begin showing the statistics of centuries of Democrat control and what it has done to a certain segment of our population then i guess you can come here and state how ridiculous cancel culture is.

But both you and I know, that will never happen. Conservatives seem to be more open to others opinions/ideas and have a more live and let live way of thinking.

For as long as I can remember, the Aunt Jemima image had a positive connotation.

This is an interesting one because I could give two shits about "Aunt Jemima" but I also think it is absurd to suggest that a smiling black woman on a syrup bottle (presumably designed to promote a sense of comfort) is now "RACIST!"

Let's put a white gal on it and call it "Aunt Karen"
