The cancel culture is getting out of control

Mixed feelings on this. On the one hand, there are far bigger things for the military to be worried about than a place name. On the other hand, there is something to be said about culture and tradition I suppose.

I blame the military veterans and current soldiers for allowing this to happen. however. These guys will go halfway around the world to kill people they don't know or have a beef with and bring freedom and democracy to them, yet won't do s#!t right here at home to fight the people here that are ruining this country. Their hate for Russians, Iranians, Syrians or whoever is stronger than their disdain for the people in their homeland that are destroying the country. I just don't understand these military folks and their logic.

"Fort Hood" does sound a tad racist.
 
You thinking having a conversation = triggered just proves my point about you having no idea what those words mean lol. The dictionary is kicking your ass this morning

Since you cited the dictionary, could you explain how you find the terms "say" and "use" to be synonymous?
 
The same "you can't cancel us!!!!!!!" crowd currently bragging about a bad Aldean song shooting up the charts to own the libs
Songs are subjective to the listener. Seems personal preference
Morgan Wallen didn’t get popular because he said the “N” word. He was pretty well known well before that. He most definitely got more exposure after that, but to say that he is as popular with fans because of that is just ignorant. Check the downloads on Apple Music and ITunes and you will see that. All his concerts sell out pretty much immediately also.
No one said these or doubted that he's a popular artist with music people like. I simply said he got more popular immediately after using the N word in a similar "take that, cancel culture" atmosphere, which is what happened, and that it's funny for people to brag about things like this
“more popular” in that someone listened and learned from their mistake…he took accountability, his fans supported him and not letting those on the left pick and choose what they get to cancel. Kind of like Jason Aldean….wasn’t it not too long ago that Xxxtancion produced a video of a white kid public hanging in an auditorium? It was, but somehow not canceled.
 
Biden has always been a gaffe machine ... but Obama didn't read any malice into Biden's remarks, and I doubt there was any.

Of course. No person of any race could possibly take offense at being touted for bein "bright and articulate and good-looking and clean." No racist tropes there.

Well, maybe Shirley and Jesse and Al and others mightly be slightly offended, since Joseph maintained that Barack was the first African-American candidate for the job to possess the qualities he so admires in a good African-American. It's a puzzle to figure out which of those qualities (if not all) were lacking in previous candidates. Maybe Shirley wasn't clean enough to suit Joe.

(In his defense, he did explain that he grew up hearing his grandmother..or mother?...often using the term "clean as a whistle." Yep, that's a term we have all used to describe...people. Makes perfect sense.

He should have just blamed it on his stutter.).

Jesse Jackson did take offense to it .... but he also said that he didn't believe that there was any racist intent behind it. It's just the kind of clumsy and stupid thing that Biden says.
 
Seriously? Jeff Foxworthy made a pretty successful career out of telling redneck jokes ... and his biggest fans are his targets.

Yeah, but using liberal logic, members of the same sociological group/clan get to call each other those terms deemed offensive if anyone else tries to apply those same terms. Or, if we apply the current rules strictly, no one outside that particular group may even say the term in any context...because that is the same as "using" it (?????).

I mean, modern society is nothing if not consistent, right?

Are you serious right now? Ice cube made a successful career by using the n word. So did Katt Williams.
