Sure it has. You avoided my question about segregation. You don't think Woolworth's ,e.g., was "bringing politics into it" when they were enforcing segregation at their lunch counters? And then, after the sit in, there was an "SJW" campaign for months to have them change their policy - which they did. I fail to see any difference in that at all - except that that was a righteous cause (although I wonder how many on this board then would have been mad about "SJWs") and the current cancel culture bullshite is not a righteous cause. But politics has always been there.

Are you REALLY comparing the folks who sat in on lunch counters to modern day SJW's/Antifi/BLM?

These folks burn,riot,murder,beat up and cancel
folks who even think about disagreeing with em.

Did you see the guy ice skating in NYC who got beat up for simply wearing a MAGA hat and waving a Trump flag? Did you see the other folks cheering him on?

You don't believe in free speech and now a Democratic/Marxist member of Congress wants to establish "Truth Commissions" but these folks are EXACTLY like the freedom riders in the South?

Do you not understand how absurd you sound?

JC. I have never seen so many companies come forward with major political statements like we have seen in the last couple years. It just didn’t happen. You are just arguing in bad faith and being disingenuous
