One friend posted a pic of Nancy Pelosi and he said how the hell is this bitch still in office. We say similar things on here. Well that proved he was masochistic, according to the ones offended. Then he said now that the racist mississippi flag is gone we could get rid of the racist ms black caucus. He probably should not have posted that on Facebook.
The other man, private company, said in response to a coworkers black lives matters statement that all lives matter.

Cancel culture is real.

Different stories. 1 day apart.
Mind is blown.

It’s a shame that you’re a pussy and curtail your freedom of speech based on how offended some snowflake gets when saying all lives matter.

But you’re probably busy washing someone else’s feet while apologizing for the skin you were born with. Carry on loser.

As a conservative we are no longer able to dislike ANYONE unless it's a white male. If you dislike a person, even if it's because their personality sucks or they're a bitch, you will be labeled a racist, sexist, homophobe, xenophobe, etc.

The days of disagreeing with someone or just disliking them are over and we have to fake it.

I realized this the other night while laying in bed. I dislike a particular coworker and it just so happens to be a black lady. I dislike her because she's on a power trip, will not listen to anything said to her and she is just rude to everyone. I can't say anything bc it would result in me being turned into HR and that would result in most likely being fired even though I've never had an issue with my company.

When the hell did people start accepting that only one side can say what they want and the other must stay silent in fear? Frick that attitude


Remaking silent does not mean you’re fearful. Quite the contrary.

I didn't say I necessarily agreed with it, but shouldn't and can't are two different things.

To all the people who are saying freedom of speech...do you think the companies who fired those guys shouldn't do what is best for their company.

Not really, if a company singles a person (or in this case two out) for firing not based on substantive reasons a good employment law attorney can get it won.


Not in a red state.

Red states are set up to trust corporations to make rational efficient decisions. Invisible hand of the markets, etc. Corporate America has turned on conservatives and it's somewhat spicy to watch them burn conservatives down.

I would support if I thought it would stop there.

Makes one wonder who the oppressors really are doesn't it?

Yet the call Trump an intolerant tyrant... Those employers are the intolerant tyrants.

You should name the companies so they can be publicly shamed and shunned for their racist and un-American actions.

Cancel culture: If you are “cancelled” but do not wish to be, you must WORK to EARN back people’s respect by owning up to the thing that cancelled you in the first place, LISTENING to others, EDUCATING yourself, and ADVOCATING on behalf of the people that you have offended/harmed

Legality of these matters is not in question. What is in question is whether we want to be a society that okays this shite.

That worked out great for the Jews in Germany. Hey white people, just bend over and take it. What could go wrong?
