Hey stupid,  What you are referring to was my own self  censorship, I knew it would be censored m so I put the asterisks  in myself. Besides that's the title of Pryor's third album from 1974. Probably what he wold say.  Also to blow your  mind,  he was  co-screenwriter  of Blazing Saddles with Mel Brooks. Mel wanted him for  Clevon Little's role but the studio heads were  concerned with  Pryor's drug use.

Let me tell y’all something about Paw Patrol. I KNOW Paw Patrol. I’ve watched multiple episodes while babysitting my nephew and niece. I have purchased very awesome Paw Patrol toys for their birthdays. Paw Patrol is about teamwork and service to the community. I also know Chase, the dog in question. He’s no Derek Chauvin. He’s one of the many good ones. He is a natural leader with a strong moral compass.

 

I am a firm believer that vigorous free speech is good and PC cancel culture is bad. Anyone who is given the power to determine what is considered “healthy” speech and “unhealthy” speech for everyone else’s consumption should be met with deep suspicion. And from a left-wing political strategy perspective, I also believe the PC police/cancel culture/SJW’s/super woke crowd are distracting voters from the deeper and more subtle systemic issues that plague our country: crony capitalism, media corruption, neoliberalism, the military-industrial complex, climate change, etc. Taking the serious issues of systemic racism and police brutality to such laughably absurd extremes within the free speech domain only further alienates moderates, Boomers, and the white working class from left-wing politics.

 

I don’t know when (or if?!) the pendulum of public consensus will swing back on these PC cultural issues. All I know is that it’s time we stand up right now in defense of Paw Patrol. I think Nickelodeon’s headquarters are here in Manhattan. Anyone else with me?! Someone may also need to order a pallet of bricks. Updates to come. “Chase is on the case,” indeed. Chase has ALWAYS been on the case. And Chase WILL continue to be on the case if Kay has her say. I, too, stand with Paw Patrol. Do you? #IStandWithPawPatrol

Regarding the pendulum swing. The pendulum of public consensus is not a wild swing.  It is a slight swing from left to right which means it finds itself mostly in the middle.  The extremes are the ones that get all the attention however but they are in the vast minority.  The percentage of the public that thinks a kid cartoon about teamwork is bad because it shows the police dog as a good character has to be VERY low.

“Tom Cotton EVISCERATES Cancel Culture in ‘Obelisk of Wokeness’ Speech”

Irony Overload: Autonomous Zone ‘Warlord’ May Soon Be Canceled after Old Homophobic Tweets Surface

Original Article

 

As we’ve previously reported, the Democrat/media-driven rush to “cancel” anyone who decides to think for themselves instead of participating in left-wing groupthink in the aftermath of the death of George Floyd is at a fever pitch, with professors, media figures, and pro-sports icons among those being tossed into the fire left and right. But in an ironic twist of fate, a cancel notice may soon be coming for Raz Simone, the “warlord” of the radical Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone (CHAZ) in Seattle, Washington as old homophobic tweets from his Twitter account have surfaced that appear to be legit based on various web archive websites (language warning):

Option 1 requires them abandoning all their core liberal ideologies and principles they (think) they're clinging to. 

Option 2 requires them to abandon nothing but the fascist/Marxist habits they picked up during their programming. 

 

Yet most of them would say Option 1 is "freedom". 

 

The brainwashing runs deep.

BRENDAN O’NEILL ON J.K. ROWLING ON FACEBOOK:

 

I disagree with JK Rowling on a lot. I have never read a single word of a Harry Potter book. But seriously, every institution in the UK could learn something from her refusal to capitulate to the fuming mob who have spent weeks abusing and insulting her and trying to get her cancelled simply because she believes there is such a thing as biological reality.

 

In their tens of thousands people have lined up to denounce her, to call her “pure scum”, to tell her to shut the f**k up. Including the three actors who became famous on the back of the Harry Potter stories — the celeb equivalent of children denouncing their parents in Stalinist Russia. She knows there will be protests if she speaks in public again, she knows some millennials are burning her books, she knows she will be defamed and boycotted for years. And yet she is sticking to her guns. That is so unusual in these yellow-bellied times.

 

Imagine if every university, corporation, media channel, streaming service, local council and politician did likewise every time noisy agitators called on them to ban something or apologize for something or to sack people for wrongthink. Britain would be a very different, and far better, place.

 

 

True.

I just wanted to take a time out to say thank you for all the links you provide on the US perspective on the poisonous hypocrisy and lies of the feral left. It is greatly appreciated!

 

You are a one-stop shop for an Aussie conservative (side note: in Australia, NZ and the UK we conservatives are known as...Liberals!!) - the anti-left eBay of TBD if you will.

Now your cereal is racist – Disgraced British ex-politician is accusing Kelloggs of racism due to its mascots

 

At some point the madness regarding racism has to hit a wall. We may be approaching that moment, if this example has not brought us here.

 

Former member of British Parliament Fiona Onasanya is a bit miffed, it appears.  Maybe getting chased out of office for illegal actions has her feeling inconsequential, but we have to question is this is the way to go.

 

Fiona had written a tersely-worded email to the British headquarters of Kelloggs recently and she has not received a satisfactory response to her liking. Since this lack of proper notification still stands Fiona has taken to social media in the do-you-know-who-I-am fashion in order to go Full Karen over what she declares one of the most pressing issues of our time.

 

 

This is where we have arrived as a society; with cities across the globe melting down it is over trivial issues such as this that the emotions remain stoked. That is, for those select few who take this insipid line of thinking seriously. Hope still percolates for mankind as there have been plenty willing to call out the idiocy of this kind of outrage.
