The 2020s are not the 2010s…the cancel-power has shifted to the right. https://t.co/Etw34GeI9Q

This is a much more accurate take than the left/liberal asininely assclownish assertion a few years go that “cancel culture does not exist.” Of course it does and did! They were just happy because they were able to cancel people who they feel deserved it while experiencing no consequences themselves. So to them, it didn’t feel like a cancellation when they nuked somebody from orbit but rather, justice.

Now the pendulum has swung the other way as it always does, so it’s seen as a grave affront to truth and righteousness when even a minor cancellation of someone on their team occurs.

People are funny.
