I love how these fucks have rebranded the word "accountability" into "cancel culture".

[–] zeppo 3 points 2 years ago

I hate how they are super stoked to boycott businesses and brands over politics while at the same time decrying “cancel culture”.

What era does he want to go back to specifically?

Before what "bullshit" exactly?

[–] FlyingSquid 11 points 2 years ago

I always like to ask them what year. Because if they do give a year, it seems to be strangely before civil rights...

Dude, you put a lynching reference in your video. Everyone knows it.

It's not cancel culture to beat a liberal death, as he suggests in his song, though?

"Before all this bullshit"

You mean the civil rights movement? Go fuck yourself, you dumb fucking wannabe hillbilly.

What is he talking about? He wasn't even alive in the 1860s.

Fuck this shit kicker

[–] zeppo 3 points 2 years ago

So when conservatives boycott businesses over politics or things like having a diversity director, saying “go woke go broke!”, he’s opposed to that?
