PERSECUTED LOL, COMAPRED TO WHAT THE JEWS HAVE ENDURED ???
Are you really willing to die on this hill ? phreaking snowflake

I’ll throw in my input before this thread gets 404’d by the mods.

I don’t agree with anything the actress said. Its obviously offensive and just way off-basis to make such a comparison. But by firing her they pretty much enable her point of view. It also highlights a double standard in Hollywood.

Nick Cannon can say far more offensive things like “white jews stole Israel from Africans” and that “European people are savages”. But still keep his job on Fox and get re-hired by MTV.

You can’t really blame people who are tired of cancel culture.

Tax money flows from blue states to red states - blue states produce and red states consume. The majority of GDP comes from blue states.

Now you can try to twist and contort yourself in all sort of ways to try to explain these away, and we can go deeper and deeper into the rabbit hole… or you can simply acknowledge that global multinational billion dollar corporations have already collectively sunk millions into market research and come to the conclusion that yes, the left does have market power and votes with their wallet.

This is General Discussion, so I don’t realistically expect you to use common sense here, but maybe if I point this out, just MAYBE, you can think about it for more than two seconds and consider that greedy soulless corporations are unlikely to act against their own financial best interests and therefore there’s almost certainly some level of merit to their decision-making.

Most anything Disney is an instant pass. ESPN, ABC, Netflix stuff whatever. Helps maintain a healthy diet with as little soy intake possible.

I’m reasonably sure that the Minneapolis PD 3rd Precinct wasn’t burned down by the cops.

How am I being a snowflake for seeing the fundamental argument?

There are a whole lot of parallels. Sure no one is being killed ‘yet’.

Btw - I have a universary degree and two other certificates in higher learning. So nice try. And I am retired after working for the government for 40 years with a nice pension, no debt and a healthy bank account so nice try troll.

Let’s all remember that Blizzard banned Blitzchung even though they later reversed their decision. How many of us quit playing WoW because of the original ban? I know I didn’t. I am a big believer in Free Speech, but Free Speech is not absolute and companies (like Blizzard and Disney) have the right to protect their own interests.

I wouldn’t exactly put One Million Moms on the right. They fight constantly against gun control. They’re about as right as Tipper Gore pearl clutching and wanting to censor everything back in the 80s.

lol

This Galeri person is a troll right? Nobody would actually compare facing the consequences of your actions to the extermination of millions of people for no reason other than bigotry and superstition, right?

Like many things, there are degrees, levels of persecution. The fact that there are people driving Itallian supercars flat out doesn’t mean that it is inappropriate to characterize me doing 5 over the limit as ‘speeding’.

Dont think they know covid is a sars virus they also seem to parrot off fox news/click bait title talking points.

No one ? Did you not pay attention to the subject of this thread?

You know many people would see ‘consequences of your actions’ to be the same thing as ‘bigotry and superstition’ depending on which side you are on.

I think someone being killed during the commission of a crime or accidently being killed when they were resisting arrest as being a consequence of an action but others see that as bigotry.

My uncle was a sheriff and he always said it isnt speeding unless you hit someone. Gotta love small towns sometimes lol.

But the left spent 4 years saying Trump was Hitler and supporters were the N word (for his followers that they wont let me type). I don’t condone either comparison as they both diminish the incredible suffering of millions of people, but why is one ok and the other is making people freak out?

the original quote which people are getting upset about, wasn’t in reference to the extermination of millions of people for no reason.

it referenced how people were being asked to dob in their neighbors, to save themselves.

context is everything.

I myself am a transgender queer multiracial obese woman and I find it highly offensive whenever I see bigotry come into my atmosphere. The world is better without hate and violence.

It’s pretty bad they got rid of her, but it’s Disney.

I don’t know what this world would be if we canceled everyone’s professional careers based off past or personal transgressions.

Good thing only the people on one side of the political scale gets this treatment though, otherwise everyone would be out of a job!

I also disagree with the Hitler comparison atleast knew how to govern by the time he seized power and tried to do some good things for public health even it it was warped by his drug addiction. Trump was more like a wannabe stalin with out the infrastructure planning.
