Cancel culture? More like cancer culture.

I think I saw this meme somewhere on YouTube. But whatever. I love it.

Hahaha never underestimate mans capacity for stupidity

Aunt Jemima was based off of the white daydream that black slaves would happily serve white people. You want this in stores?

Firstly, I think you're overreacting a little. Secondly, even if it is racist, it should still be allowed in stores. The government should not interfere with the free market.

Having Aunt Jemima in stores is like having a brand that is based off of the 9-11 attacks in America or based off of concentration camps in Germany. It's just a reminder of the horrible things that happened in the past.

Indeed, they are horrible. But they should still be allowed. Unlike you, I oppose censorship and support freedom of speech.

freedom of speech isn't freedom to oppress.

How is that oppression?

ThePug seems to think you wanted the government to intervene and pull it from the shelves or something.. is that what you are saying? I didn't get that vibe considering you never mentioned the government but maybe I'm wrong.

Nah, the government shouldn't intervene. It's not their problem.

Wasn't it the company who made the decision to pull it? (free of any government interference)

Correct. Your point?

My point was an attempt to clarify what your point was.

"It should still be allowed in stores. The government should not interfere with the free market."

I'm not sure beez_kneez or anyone else was advocating government interference, so this comment is confusing. The Aunt Jemima parent company may have been trying to avoid "cancel culture"/boycott/loss of customers, so they decided to rebrand it. Seems to me calling out "problematic" products, organizing boycotts and a company deciding to rebrand their product is part of the free market and free speech.

"I'm not sure beez_kneez or anyone else was advocating government interference"

I'm pretty sure he was.

"Seems to me calling out "problematic" products, organizing boycotts and a company deciding to rebrand their product is part of the free market and free speech."

Correct. But it is still cretinous.

I didn't get that vibe idk.

Eh.. seems warranted to me. I actually remember thinking wtf are "Aunt Jemima" and "Uncle Ben" brands doing still on shelves (years ago)... But that didn't necessarily mean I wanted Obama to pull it from the shelves.

nope. The government shouldn't be intervening with this. But I support the groups of people that advocated for removing aunt Jemima.

I support their right to do it, but I still do not support what they did.

No,no your mistaken

How so?

Your the one that’s racist

How am I racist?

You are unable to back up your claim, therefore it is invalid. I am not racist. You are just hurling random insults because you don't know how to debate.
