Why does everyone always assume it's millennials or younger people at fault for all this stuff being talked about? As if there are better generations out there...
I'm guessing many things similar to Bammer's post were written in the 1960s by middle-aged people, then again in the 90s.

The fact that critical race theory and cancel culture are treated as equivalent terms is a real testament to the high level of intellectual nuance going on in here

Are you about to post “real socialism has never been tried”?
"The fatal flaw of all revolutionaries is that they know how to tear things down but don't have a f**king clue about how to build anything."

The good news is that the constant bludgeoning might cause a few to rebel eventually, or just deaden them to caring too much about it. Or maybe that's just the opiods.
I just hope they get past the “government is always the problem” mindset that has drained the GOP of their ability to come up with new ideas. We all see instances where cancel culture goes too far, but it’s not just on the left, and it’s not going to bring the country down. I assume most here are old enough to remember when we didn’t have access to anything not in print or on tv. No point of view is banned from the internet. No one goes to jail for believing something.
It turns out they "listened" to the comments and criticisms and changed the graphic to just multicolor hearts with "love is love". No people depicted in the new one. Then did the standard "missed the mark"
Then people complaining the apology wasn't quick enough, and/or it wasn't even a real apology.
I need to cancel my Netflix and just read Twitter.
