This is not cancel culture. Its an employer finding out an employee lacks morals and ethics. I would not want someone working for me that believes murder is something to be celebrated.

i really, REALLY don't give a frick who started it... i'm more concerned about someone stepping up, being the adult in the room and STOPPING it, so we can move on to more important issues we face as a society...



The only people who could have stopped it are the people who started it. You don't get to cry foul when the weapon you've created is used against you. The only way to stop it at this point is for the left to find out that the right is also willing to engage in doxxing and ruining people over social media posts.

It's also worth noting that the people being "cancelled" are celebrating someone being murdered because of a difference of political opinion. They're excited about it in the same way they were excited about cancelling people, without ever considering the world they're openly cheering for. Like "cancel culture" they just believe that they will always be on the winning side of these assassinations. Maybe cancelling them is the politest way to inform the left that it won't always be that way.

In the years of the left canceling people for opposing views, having their homes swatted, harassing their families and employers, how many times did you jump into those threads to vehemently condemn it like you're doing in this thread?

You are probably not cognizant enough to understand this, but you are getting absolutely rocked in the thread. You are probably used to it and dont even know, that is why I am helping you understand.

So what weapon should be used when the "enemy" doesn't want to play fair? Start picking off folks from that side? Obviously no, so what do you propose, allow one side to fight with both hands while the others hands are tied?

Its absolutely NOT appropriate with this false equivalency you are trying to make.

You chose the wrong event to make a stand.

why? can the other side really NOT be the bigger, better person in this instance, or is ego and pride too big a thing to get over?

so, the right retaliates and then what? you think the left is just gonna be like, ok, we get it now? what reality do you live in?

why is de-escalation treated as a failure, or weakness? i find nothing wrong with either side, at this point, saying hey WE were wrong, WE will stop, so let's agree to BOTH stop... be alot easier to give a small concession for the greater good, in the long run, for everyone... but that small concession just seems too hard for BOTH parties, as neither one wants to give the other any "win", no matter how small... but as a result the real losers are us... with the back and forth bullshite they do, we, the people, get lost in the fray and everything stalls and nothing gets done to actually solve anything...

Why do you assume it’s the right vs left?

These liberal institutions are the ones terminating employees who mock the murder of a man in cold blood. Are the people doing the terminating all on the right?

and which one was that... for the 3rd time, and please actually read it this time, so i don't have to explain it again, a political assassination is not the same as someone being upset over their "pronouns" (bullshite) getting messed up...

does this suffice for you, Rog? i'm really not sure how much more i can break it down for you to understand my stance on this EXACT issue at hand...

doxxing


to clarify. I am not aware of any of these people being doxxed. They knowingly used their personal public online accounts, often including their names and employer, to post vile nonsense celebrating CK’s assassination. It was reported to their employer, they were fired. That’s different than doxxing.

Which brings us full circle. Read the room, you chose the wrong fricking time to make this stand.

And it seems you may know it, but just cant realize it. Squeeze that subconscious really hard here...

And even then, the EMPLOYER is making the determination whether to terminate. They could choose not to do so if they felt it wasn’t warranted.

which ones, exactly?

as they should... it's crass and disgusting... i absolutely disagree with deification of Kirk, who's basically become a quasi 13th apostle to some people (not here, just an observation from social and main stream media), but i absolutely, whole heartedly denounce the murder of the guy... it's not right, under any circumstance, for ANYONE to be murdered for their political ideology.. we are better than that, or at least i thought we were...

It’s always the Dems that put this shite in motion and then shout “timeout”. Things are getting out of hand when the shoe is on the other foot.
