Cancellations

[john eden]

Lots of “cancellations” after the 2011 riots too.

 

[luka]

lot of lives cancelled post tottenham.

 

[Leo]

yeah, losing speaking gigs sucks but doesn't quite stack up against three years in the Graybar Hotel.

the big bad wolf is still Power and you have to always keep that in mind and prioritse that. i hope everyone here understands that. you can still kick back against thin lipped prigs though. not mutally exclusive.

 

[Leo]

the state largely doesn't get involved with culture war issues, short of outright hate crime. you don't get arrested for speaking against gay marriage. but you can get arrested for supporting riots.

Now they try to cancel the most woke Twitter warrior in the house scene Black Madonna's "problematic" use of her name. Love this.

I might sign this actually

In her new column in The Spectator, actual fascist “replacement theory” fan Lauren Southern announces that she has been “cancelled” more times than you have had hot dinners.

 

[john eden]

Considerably more cancelled than you.

 

[DannyL]

Pretty standard fare, no? Fascists grandstanding over "thin skinned" libs.

 

[john eden]

Depends whether or not you think “cancel culture” is an omnipresent Orwellian menace to free thought or not.

 

[john eden]

First they came for the Nazis and I didn’t speak out because they increased their profile and earnings.

 

[DannyL]

I've managed to ignore the whole round of cancelling rowing pretty much, which feels like it's good for me. I cancelled cancelling.

Just reading about an 18 year old who was jailed for 3 years in 1981 for dishing out photocopies in Nottingham of an anarchist article supporting the Brixton riots.
That’s a bit more aggro than your Milos and Ninas face.

Didn't her friend get beaten by the police to the extent that he was permanently injured though? Seems the same ballpark to me

Seems a little hard on her.

I saw this yesterday, it had zero signatures... probably a glitch cos surely the originators must have signed it but it was funny.

 

[WashYourHands]

The English. The entire country, just for one day.

 

[Mr. Tea]

Seems a little hard on her.

I'm gutted not to have spotted this, but very good.

I guess her anonymous accusers felt they were fighting the Power, speaking truth to Power, etc. etc.

I'd have thought that if you need to get cancelled a second or third time then the previous cancellations weren't proper ones.
