REP. JAMIE RASKIN (D-MD): Mr. Chairman, some of our colleagues have been railing about what they call "cancel culture." I've just made a quick list off the top of my head of some people that right-wing conservatives have tried to censure or cancel, privately or publicly, or defund or boycott. Here's some of them. Congresswoman Liz Cheney, who they tried to kick off of her chairmanship of the House Republican Conference. Sen. Bill Cassidy from Louisiana. Sen. Richard Burr -- any of the 17 Republican members of Congress who voted to impeach and convict Donald Trump for inciting violent insurrection against the union.

ABC, ACORN, TV host Samantha Bee, Campbell's Soup, The Dixie Chicks, New York Times reporter Sopan Deb, comedian Kathy Griffin, Guinness, Hallmark, CNN commentator Marc Lamont Hill, Nike, Pepsi, The New York Times, the words "climate change" and "science-based" in numerous government agencies and documents, Starbucks, Target, and on and on and on.

So, do you find that the cancel culture is limited to one side of the political spectrum, or do you think there's a lot of right-wing cancel culture out there which really got this whole -- all the engines of censorship revved up?
yea its very much a right wing thing too

This is the nonsense that occupies the minds of too many people especially republicans. warning labels are put on entertainment in America all the time. We put warning labels on movies to say if there is nudity or violence or bad language, porn is labeled explicit and can't be shown on regular tv or even regular cable channels, explicit lyric warnings are put on albums. Is that stuff cancel culture? these types of discussions are bizarre because they are taking place free of context in America. I just don't understand how one can grow up with movies warning about nudity or violence or albums warning about explicit lyrics and be upset about other warnings placed on entertainment as if its some new and dangerous thing.

I care little what Morgan has to say but she got slapped by the SJW's just for defending his right to speak.

And Morgan is called racist for daring to call out Megan Markle for her whining.
Y’all are pretending that these rich a holes are you. They aren’t. You all are going to bat to make sure rich d heads can say stupid shyt on tv based on identifying with phony cancel culture nonsense, none of it benefits you at all.

Social justice warrior (SJW) is a pejorative term for an individual who promotes socially progressive views, including feminism, civil rights, and multiculturalism. The accusation that somebody is an SJW carries implications that they are pursuing personal validation rather than any deep-seated conviction, and engaging in disingenuous arguments ...
