Yes, and Bud Light got ostracized by a large portion of their customer base for providing a six pack to a transgender woman.



You can't "ostracize" a product. You can simply choose not to use it.
So I guess Roseanne losing her show wasn't Cancel Culture either.



Rosanne was fired. That's a lot different than her show being canceled because people chose not to watch.

Public pressure forced ABC bosses to get rid of Roseanne. Public pressure forced Bud Light bosses to get rid of Mulvaney. Both products now exist without those people. It's the same thing.

I first saw this when fallowing Dan Bernstein who had retweeted the article before the Bears game.

I feel like Bill Maher, I am an old school lib who think so much progress has been made, but the far left is just embarrassing. I havent changed....these freaks on the far left have(plenty of far righties as well).

Kids parents should sue Deadspin for defamation...it is a kid dressing up in gear for the team. They made sure to show only one side of his face and the deadpsin writer tried to make a dumb moral argument.

What is the proper length of time to leave Bernsie unplanted such that he returns rejuvenated and better than ever with a bountiful treasure of sports thoughts that keep us tuned into the Score?

And a six pack of beer. That's the important part, because you can't downplay "hey, all they did was send her a check for 185K.

How do we know the kid isn't just a Chiefs fan but also a fan of the comedy stylings of Pigmeat Markham?

Relax, Chief.

It’s just a discussion. Nobody is overly angsty.

We're discussing thing because a righteous Democrat thought or wanted to make this kid out to be racist. You say what you want that it's a non story so you think you can be a good person.

Bernstien is a great follow for Bears games. Now reported this kid is Native American. Even Bernstein deleted his retweet.

The far right does the exact same thing. This is hilarious how stupid people can be to get clicks/narratives on both sides.

The original tweet has more than 4 million views. I'd say that indicates it's a story of some significance, wouldn't you?

It's amazing that otherwise intelligent people seem to have no clue about how important Twitter is to American and world culture and politics. They don't seem to realize that they sound just like someone in 1903 screaming, "Get a horse!" at a guy driving a Model A.

Twitter is important but in mostly terrible ways for the country and mental health of people who consume the accounts designed to find things to be angry about every single day.

This is actually a good example. The kids parents are wrong for dressing him like this. Someone takes it and links it to racism against black people. People, who would normally just accept "Don't dress up like a Native American" are now mad at some liberal that doesn't matter on twitter and they then decide "Actually, it's great to dress up like a Native American" and people slowly continue on the path of choosing the extreme woke/anti-woke battle lines that have no impact on anyone's lives.

I did make that qualifier earlier about you shouldn't do it unless you are a Native American.

But, I also would like to see a link to the kid or his parents saying that they are.

Like any othe technology, there are positives and negatives. (With AI coming fast, the people whining about Twitter better get used to that.) Twitter has changed the world. If you want to poo-poo that, you sound like an old guy with a flip phone asking his grandson if he's "on email."

I could make a good argument against the internal combustion engine too. But I'd be ridiculed and probably rightly so. And people who say shit like, "Oh, it's Twitter" should be ridiculed in a similar fashion.

Why do people think Musk taking control of Twitter was such a big deal? It's important technology that has been used to spur revolutions and elect presidents.
