Huh. The only possible reason to conflate cancel culture with erasure is if you're such a shit person with truly deplorable views that being forced to just fucking be polite feels like an attack on your person.
Everyone knows the dog whistle involved here, buddy.
I don't think I follow that train of thought. What do you think cancel culture was except the systematic erasure of people with "undesirable" viewpoints?
Duh. Not being allowed to do offensive shit without consequence is obviously upsetting to you. So, yeah, of course you didn't follow a train of thought that includes common decency.
I think actions have consequences. I think a person who has any actual courage will accept that fact. What, do you think bigotry and prejudice shouldn't be "undesirable"? What, you afraid of just...not being an ass???
Okay, so instead of focusing on making solid arguments, you been spending much of your time on name calling and insulting my intelligence instead. Is that what you consider common decency? Or should there be consequences for that?
Seems like a clear violation of rule 1 of this forum: "Don't throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human."
Oh go cry yourself a river to drown in.
Yeah, no shit I'm not "debating in good faith". Duh. Why the fuck would I bother?? Like, seriously, there's nothing clever in that "asking questions" approach.
And, if you're gonna cry about 'solid arguments', fund one yourself. Facts don't care about your feelings, remember???
