GOP should look in the mirror as to its own 'cancel culture' rather than project it onto others

You're misusing the term cancel culture and have what the vote was over wrong, but let's not let facts get in the way of a good hating.

Nope, I know exactly what so called 'cancel culture' is. What I find remarkable is that Republicans constantly insist its only the Dems that ever do it, yet fail to recognize when they themselves are guilty of such. Gerrymandering - intended to suppress blacks and/or hispanics from voting - is one form of cancel culture. So too are any laws Republicans put forth in any given state that makes it harder for blacks and/or hispanice to vote because they know most of them favor Democratic principles.

Nor should it be forgotten that the Republican party is currently not only centuring those within their party that stood up for honest and ethical principles that went against Trump's cult but further, seek to primary them in the next election and/or destroy them personally and professionally for having done so.

Sorry, you're repeated attempts to change the meaning of the term doesn't make others wrong or hypocrites, nor does your TDS mean that impeaching someone foe calling for a peaceful protest by lying about the incident right.

While 'memes' are a modern day invention due to the internet, 'cancel culture' is something that's actually existed for hundreds of years, though defined by different terminologies historically. FYI... global history existed long before you were born and will continue long after you're deceased.

You're still ignoring what cancel culture means and trying to apply your own definition to what other people mean rather than how the word is actually used, A.K.A. fallacy of equivocation. But nice try to dodge.

No, I'm not. I'm telling you that 'cancel culture' is not some new phenomenum. It's merely a modern day buzz word and manipulative tactic utlized by political individuals to try to create what is known as 'buy-in' with highly uninformed and trusting individuals to vote for them in the future.

Nope, that is something that is completely different as per the definition you've been given and every single definition that I've looked up. Your changing the meaning of the word and ignoring the facts that you've been given that show you're wrong.

A "buy-in" is active support. "cancel Culture" is actively trying to remove someone from a platform or public position.

I know the definition of each. Politicians operate by using rhetoric to stoke up their base with claims intended to create outrage in order to gain greater buy-in and support for their policies and practices. It's disingenuous to assert that the GOP are not using cancel culture with respect to those officials within their party that did not go along with Trump's attempts to steal the election.

Every individual that did the right thing by upholding their oath of office has been censured, threatened with bodily harm or death, intimidated and pressured to step down, told they'd get primaried in next election and/or had movements within their communities trying to force them out of office. All of that because they refused to be corrupted or complicit in Trump's illegal attempts to retain power.

You're still ignoring the definitions and switching them, despite the evidence given not agreeing with you.

Your also pretending your opinion on what the right thing is is a fact and misusing the term illegal for constitutionally protected actions.

As such it seems you support cancel culture based off of blood libel and are trying to cover for it by conflating behaviors, applying equivocation, and making a whataboutism out of your strawman.

Says the person that completely ignores all facts and evidence that Trump blatantly lied about the election being stolen from him in order to retain power.

Probably thinks a snowflake is someone who cries.

That's some major league projection. Also learn what cancel culture means. It's all on leftists.

Care to explain how you think Assad has anything to do with this discussion whatsoever and why you believe cancel culture is strictly a leftist position.

Care to explain why you think you have some say on what I meme as a reaction meme and why you feel it needs to have any connection to the discussion?

Thinking that gerrymandering or ID laws is anything close to cancel culture renders the conversation moot as you don't have the slightest clue what it means and are hopeless if you claim to know what it 'exactly' means.

Quit trying to deflect the question I asked. I'll answer your question once you answer mine.

Cancel culture is a culture where people online doxx and/or band together online to get anyone accused of wrong think fired from their jobs or kicked out of school and socially shamed to attempt to lose friends and family and possibly the ability to work again. Or to work online to try and ban 'problematic' works, like books, movies and the likes.

In other words, canceled.

See the difference now? See why everyone has called you out about it?

Do you have any idea how long that type of shit has gone on? Your own grandparents - if they're still alive - could tell you many stories about such events occuring in their own lifetime. FYI... every 20 years, fashionable items from the past are resurrected and renamed to appeal to the youths of today, as too political propaganda strategies. The only real difference between then and now is the 'catch phrases' used to describe such and and the current technological means by how it spreads.

True but never like now with the internet connecting people worldwide with nowhere to hide

I'll give you that. The internet's been a double edged sword, providing both benign uplift for those seriously interested in learning about other cultures and their perspectives to gain a better understanding of the world and alternatively, those that tend to use it for more nefarious means.

I think the real problem is social media and the dopamine hits people get. I think they get worked up into an electronic version of a crowd frenzy and get pulled along on a lesser scale.

I think it's also responsible for decreased social skills in real life among adolescents.

I agree with both your points.

Peace

it's not a real cancellation. it's more of a kiaser sousa thing. useful idiots revived as needed.

That is tribalism. They can still get a job and have a voice.

Tribalism is exactly what is it and it's completely ludicrous to me that anyone would continue to support and/or condone the corrupt and/or destructive actions of their leaders simply because they had always previously supported that party.

Leftists always wind up accusing others of what they themselves do

I'm thinking you have yet to learn many unsavory lessons about the true reality of the political system within in the US and why you're statement can broadly be seen by those more informed than yourself to be delivered by a 'partisan hack'.

A good argument for doing the vote by secret ballot.

Yep, the vote on Liz Cheney is a perfect example on how people actually feel versus their public positions.
