Hawley pretends not to understand the First Amendment after losing a book deal:

Again, private businesses are not obliged to publish everything that anyone wants published. Cancel culture is not censorship.

I love Cancel Culture and so should you:

Delta airlines ejected two people for having a private conversation in which they expressed support for Trump.

Well done Delta!

Imagine how good it would be if all Trumpists are not sold food by any food retailer.

Not selling them electricity/fuel would be good too.

At the very least they should not be sold firearms and/or ammunition.

https://deadline.com/2021/01/parler-ceo-says-service-dropped-by-every-vendor-and-could-end-the-company-1234670607/

Quote
Parler CEO John Matze said today that his social media company has been dropped by virtually all of its business alliances after Amazon, Apple and Google ended their agreements with the social media service.

“Every vendor from text message services to email providers to our lawyers all ditched us too on the same day,” Matze said today on Fox News.

Matze conceded that the bans could put the company out of business while raising free speech issues, calling it “an assault on everybody.”

“They all work together to make sure at the same time we would lose access to not only our apps, but they’re actually shutting all of our servers off tonight, off the internet,” Matze said. “They made an attempt to not only kill the app, but to actually destroy the entire company. And it’s not just these three companies. Every vendor from text message services to email providers to our lawyers all ditched us too on the same day.”

The remarks come a day after Amazon dropped Parler from its servers, joining Apple and Google. They all cited the potential of spreading violent content on the site, which is favored by conservatives as an alternative to Twitter and Facebook.

Matze said that the services are unfairly targeting Parler. “They’re trying to falsely claim that we’re somehow responsible for the events that occurred on the 6th,” he said, the date of the Capitol building takeover by protesters.

“It would put anybody out of business,” he said of the tech bans. “This thing could destroy anybody.”

He added: “We’re going to try our best to get back online as quickly as possible. But we’re having a lot of trouble because every vendor we talk to says they won’t work with us. Because if Apple doesn’t approve and Google doesn’t approve, they won’t.”

This isn’t a free speech issue. Private companies like Twitter, Facebook, Comcast, etc. can carry or not carry whomever they want.

(BDS is really just Cancel Culture applied to Israel:

By encouraging leftists to support Cancel Culture generally, we ensure that leftists must support BDS.)

Guess who is against Cancel Culture?

https://www.foxbusiness.com/technology/elon-musk-weighs-in-on-big-tech-censorship

Quote
Tesla CEO Elon Musk weighed in Monday on Big Tech's recent move to censor President Trump in response to the Capitol riot by pro-Trump supporters last week.

"A lot of people are going to be super unhappy with West Coast high tech as the de facto arbiter of free speech," Musk replied

It's always him! Musk is literally the consequence of failing to eliminate all Apartheid South African bloodlines when Apartheid ended. If Musk's existence does not show us how important it is to eliminate all enemy bloodlines, nothing will.

Forbes Warns Companies That Hiring Former Trump Officials Will Destroy Their Reputations
Quote
Forbes Magazine is warning the biggest companies in the country that if they hire former members of the Trump administration, they will destroy their reputations. In fact, Forbes went as far as to tell the companies that if they hire these people, the magazine will assume from that point forward that everything that comes out of the company is a lie.

(Old news but the point is worth it)

Mark Wahlberg Had the Perfect Response to Cancel Culture
Quote
It was just a few days ago when actor Mark Wahlberg looked like the next celebrity to get canceled. The “Transformers” star made the mistake of trying to heal the nation after a police incident left an unarmed, cooperative black man dead.

“The murder of George Floyd is heartbreaking. We must all work together to fix this problem,” he wrote. “I’m praying for all of us. God bless.”

It’s hard to imagine a more positive, harmless message. Think again. That generic virtue signaling caused a kerfuffle. Social media followers recoiled at his kind words, dredging up the star’s ugly past in the process.

In 1986, a then 15-year-old Wahlberg and three friends were charged for chasing three black children and pelting them with rocks while yelling: “Kill the n*****s” until an ambulance driver intervened.

The next day, Wahlberg harrassed another group of mostly black children (around the age of nine or 10) at the beach, gathering other white men to join in racially abusing and throwing rocks at them.

A seemingly unrelated second incident occurred two years later in 1988, when Wahlberg attacked two Vietnamese men while high on the drug PCP.


The Independent reached out to Wahlberg’s representatives for comment after regurgitating his past. It’s likely other news sites did the same, covering some angry social media rants like a major news story.

Hollywood Toto claims to be the "Right Take on Entertainment", or right-wing take on entertainment. Continuing:

Quote
For what it’s worth, the actor previously addressed his actions and fully apologized for the young man he once was.

Wahlberg remains self-conscious about his past and told me during a recent press conference for “Patriot’s Day” that he is trying to make up for it through charitable work with the Boys and Girls Clubs and through his own life example.
https://www.hollywoodintoto.com/mark-wahlberg-cancel-culture/

Good to know Mark is no-longer racist!!! He obviously has stopped chasing "black" kids down the street and threatening them with violence! We should all forgive him for his racist past obviously! Oh, wait....

Mark Wahlberg Is "Optimistic" About Donald Trump
Quote
Why does the "Patriots Day" star have a "positive" outlook on Donald Trump's presidency? Find out what he tells E!'s Marc Malkin.


How do so many imbecilic immoral and amoral subhumans end up in the U.S. entertainment industry? How do so many of them end up on the Police force and as politicians in government?

Why do westerners like to be "entertained" by subhumans? Is that fact partly to blame for the reason why we are now in a swamp filled with subhumans symbolically speaking? I realize everyone needs to find something to do within a society, but should we really be plastering subhumans all over our screens for children to see?

I know we're against CGI here for the most part, but I just watched a CGI video-game intro that looked so real I thought they were real people at first. Rather than being immoral cowards and complain about cancel culture, perhaps most Western entertainers should actually be worried about CGI more than cancel culture, because if that video-game intro is the trend then technology is about to cancel all these entertainers permanently anyway. Not saying that's necessarily a good thing, just a thought.

I'll end by reiterating that cancel culture is not censorship nor is it a freedom of speech issue. Anyone who tries to argue that it is doesn't understand free speech or censorship. These are private companies ran by private individuals and they and their users do not owe you the politician or entertainer jack-****! We don't even owe you a second of our time you entitled dimwits!

fully apologized

This is the minimum required for an apology:



A full apology would involve suicide. So no, Wahlberg has not apologized at all.

Also:

https://us.yahoo.com/sports/olympic-gold-medalist-klete-keller-reportedly-part-of-mob-that-stormed-capitol-205958124.html

Quote
Klete Keller, who won two Olympic gold medals as a swimmer for Team USA, was reportedly part of the angry mob that invaded the U.S. Capitol building last Wednesday.
...
Keller now lives in Colorado Springs and works as a real estate agent for the firm Hoff & Leigh. SwimSwam confirmed his employment with Hoff & Leigh on Monday, and reported that his profile was still active on their website at that time. It has since been taken down and nearly all references to him have been removed from the site.

Will the Olympic Committee remove his medals?

Just for fun:

And no, getting a member of the Press fired from their jobs simply for asking questions is not cancel culture but is actually a First Amendment issue:
