But I thought Cancel Culture was a woke mind virus?

What's that quote, never think they don't understand what they're saying? Can someone fill it in, can't find it.

“Never believe that antisemites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge… They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert.”

-- Jean‑Paul Sartre’s 1946 essay "Réflexions sur la question juive"

That's the one, thank you.

"If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.”

The modern day version of the ending is to scream and teehee the argument is over by commercial break,

Can someone report me to my employer for criticizing this?

How dare you criticize Saint Charlie, by quoting all the times the Bible contradicted his ideology! That's hate speech! /s

What happened to free speech?

What happened to “fuck your feelings”?

What happened to cancel culture?

What happened to your snow flake insult?


I can criticize that jackass all I want. I get being upset about the people celebrating his death, but that is worlds apart from merely criticizing the man.

BlameTheAntifa@lemmy.world · 13 pts · 338d

For the right, everything is about violence. They advocate and perpetuate violence, but they do it because they believe you to be violent, because they have been told so repeatedly. And so they attack you and oppress you and strip you of rights, and this violence against you is justified because they are “good people” and you are “bad people.”

So when you criticize their fallen hero, who died for free speech, then you are no longer engaging in speech or valid criticism, but violence. You see, it proves what they already know to be true, you are violent, depraved, and an enemy of freedom and goodness. And so their escalating violence against you continues to be justified.

And today, because the fascists hold nearly absolute power, any and every employer will cowtow because they are afraid of the campaign of terrorism that will follow if they do not. And so we sink deeper into depraved, inescapable, eternal fascism.

Why is JD Vance suddenly starting to spearhead stupid statements like that? Is Trump too busy being nearly dead?

Archangel1313@lemmy.ca · 20 pts · 338d

Trump "moved on" days ago. He's probably already forgotten who Charlie Kirk even was, by now.

Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 338d

He's definitely fucked up. But also, seeing Trump makes people think of the Epstein Files.

This is literally just cancel culture

BlameTheAntifa@lemmy.world · 29 pts · 338d

But government-sponsored, which means it’s a violation of every American’s First Amendment rights. Save for the part where the US no longer has a Constitution, democracy, or rule of law.

NatakuNox@lemmy.world · 44 pts · 338d (1 reply)

Look at what they actually put effort into. Kids in Mississippi don't get enough food to eat JD. We just canceled funding that was very close to curing cancer, and we threw it all away to elect a pedo. USA is a dead nation.

Tollana1234567@lemmy.today · 1 pts · 337d

cancer cure is quite a stretch(technically and biologically you ant really prevent cancers from occuring so cure is quite a misnomer), i dont think were close. but we develop new treatments overtime from research.

This was Vance's plan all along: become Vice President so he could get the CIA to initiate an entrapment operation to coerce some internet loser to shoot Charlie Kirk so he could take over his podcast.

The mind boggles

Why are you not celebrating his death?

mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca · 3 pts · 337d

there is no need to celebrate his death

it is sufficient to celebrate that he is no longer alive

Kirk is inhaling Satan's goaty farts in Hell right now, while being chopped into tiny pieces, then reassembled, and will continue to be on that loop for eternity.

For him, time was, but time is no more. That is my sincere belief, and if anyone wants to rat me out to my employer, they can drop on by my house and kiss my ass first.

Modern_medicine_isnt@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 338d (1 reply)

I don’t see how this works in thier favor. Maga people make racist comments wothout needing someone to die. So while charlie comments will die down, MAGA one won't. So if both sides report, MAGA loses in the long run. Plus, while cheering someones death can be considered in bad taste. Knowingly employing a racist can expose a company to significant legal ramifications.

Gaja0@lemmy.zip · 2 pts · 338d

They think being racist is normal, but hating Kirk is extreme.
