At their convention five years ago, President Donald Trump and his Republican Party rallied their supporters fervently against an idea they characterized as a rot on society: cancel culture.
Too many people, they argued one by one in prime-time speeches, were being publicly ostracized — in some cases losing their jobs — for exercising their constitutional right to free speech.
But the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, who was among the speakers at that 2020 convention, seems to have rapidly shifted how Trump and other Republicans see the boundaries of free speech and the rules of engagement for a once-loathed cancel culture.
Previously a voice for the canceled, they are now the ones canceling.
Um, what the FUCK? The “cancel culture” was not even a thing. It was just shit the cons made up. Who on the right was really “cancelled”?
As usual, it’s projection. Jesus fucking Christ, even this headline cedes the framing to these dickheads and their incessant whining.
