 @b05df304 @98042630 As hilarious as it is for you to brand this to cancel culture when that isn't real. Businesses have distanced themselves from people saying controversial things since the beginning of hollywood.

Like there's no....this was the left doing it...to this. Ironically enough. The right literally started cancel culture from the start of america to begin with. With the church leading the charge and still doing so now. lol 
 @b05df304 @98042630 Again. They let her go because it was bad for business (something that doesn't get called cancel culture until it LOOKS like the left did it). Republicans/conservatives constantly cancel people for say...not supporting trump...all the time.

But yeah. Crossing picket lines to any degree. Even if it's perceived that way. Is a no no. Even in business.

Yea, sure.. I have no doubt they did this because they thought it would be in their best interests as an org. They did it for popularity, not any sense of morality, agreed.  (something that doesn’t get called cancel culture until it LOOKS like the left did it).

I mean, as myself being on the left, and the fact that I said nothing about left, right, or even politics, this seems nonsensical. It sounds more like your reading from a talking points script than engaging the topic as it is actually presented here.  Republicans/conservatives constantly cancel people for say…not supporting trump…all the time.

They sure do… you realize you arent disagreeing with me. This point just further proves (with yet another example) that we live in a Cancel Culture.  But yeah. Crossing picket lines to any degree. Even if it’s perceived that way. Is a no no. Even in business.

Yea even when crossing picket lines is morally ok, generally its avoided from a business standpoint.

As I already explained in this thread. You clearly dont understand the meaning of "Cancel Culture". It isnt refering to a culture where boycotts happen from time to time. The name implies a culture where boycotting things is a central and dominant theme in the culture.

> Like there's no....this was the left doing it...to this. Ironically enough. The right literally started cancel culture from the start of america to begin with.

Who said anything about left, right, or who started Cancel Culture. Seems like your arguing against something you imagined I said that I never said (or came close to saying)... 

> With the church leading the charge and still doing so now. lol

Sure Cancel Culture is pretty common in church circles too, especially historically... how int he world is that relevant to what i posted though?
