    Dumb post, but calling it "anti-Semitic" is bullshit. I'm a Jew and I'm not offended by that at all. Nothing derogatory about Jewish people was stated or implied there.

    So is Disney/ABC/ESPN going to fire everyone who has compared Trump or other Republicans to Hitler or Nazis? Or does this only go one way?

    I think we know the answer.

    Apparently they were looking to fire Carano for months, because she's on the right and outspoken about it. There's also BS claims that she "pushed election fraud conspiracies", when in fact all she did was criticize mail-in voting and said that our election system needs to be closely examined to stamp out fraud. I agree!

    Funny how the left invents "anti-Semitism" where it doesn't exist, in order to go after Republicans. At the same time, they embrace actual anti-Semites like Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib.

    "Follow the Benjamins!"

    Disgusting.
    It's not anti-Semitic, but if you follow her analogy, it is calling the Democrats Nazis.

    I'm not for cancel culture but it's naive to think you can say anything and there won't be consequences.
    Shouldn't the consequences simply be criticism from those who don't appreciate it?

    Firing her for calling Democrats Nazis means that everyone who called Trump or Republicans Nazis should be fired, too. Which is absurd.

    I'm not disagreeing with you but we are back to the problem of it is a private organization and they don't owe anybody freedom of speech. It has its good and bad consequences.

    Check out the podcast "Blocked and Reported" hosted by Jesse Singal and Katie Herzog. It's all about cancel culture from the perspective of reasonable journalists who are left-leaning. They receive an immense amount of hate from folks on the far left (e.g., both have been labelled TERFS).

    https://barpodcast.fireside.fm/

    https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcas...d/id1504298199

    In their most recent episode they had a fascinating interview with a woman who was trans (took testosterone to transition to become a man) but then "detransitioned" back to being a woman.

    A couple of episodes back they reviewed the "recovered memory wars" of the 80s and 90s. Basically, a bunch of people claimed that, through therapy, they had come to recover vivid memories of being sexually abused (often by their relatives). However, recovered memories have little to no scientific support. You do not completely forget about traumatic abuse and recover it perfectly years later. Lots of families were torn apart and legal proceedings followed. A lot of prominent false memory researchers like Elizabeth Loftus testified to debunk claims of recovered memories (based on science!) and were vilified for "denying" people's traumatic experiences even though in hindsight those false memories were bullshit.

    Sounds familiar doesn't it?

    Disney is releasing the 1970s Muppet Show... but they have up a warning, just in case Kermit offends people.

    Mr. Potato Head the latest victim of cancel culture.

    However, after a lot of bad reaction, Hasbro kind of walked it back.

    LOL spineless corporations catering to the woke mob, and then trying to find a middle ground to where nobody is mad at them.

    Long overdue for a non-binary potato head but at least Hasbro is on the right track.

    Thumbs up

    Under Armour is next go woke...

    https://www.breitbart.com/sports/202...tion-programs/

    According to the Outkick, a whistleblower is reporting that the sportswear giant has mandated that employees take a so-called “anti-racism” course entitled “Above the Surface: Dominant White Progressive Narratives” that urges white employees to examine how they might be racist.

    Under Armour “forced its white employees to participate in a training program that asked them to consider ways in which they might be racist.”

    The course’s moderator even reportedly asked white employees how many “virtually all-white” funerals they had attended during their lives, insisting that not going to a minority funeral may prove the employee is racist. After asking that question, the moderator quickly interrupted, saying that she didn’t want to give whites time to think of their answer. She then told white employees that the question “should be something that you are thinking about if you are white for the rest of your life.”

    I mean what's wrong with this though, it's an Athleticwear company diversity I'm sure is very much all around it.

    To extend to your employees, white black whatever color sensitivity training of sorts. Should be expected really. And as a company wholly its defiantly beneficial to your Teams efficiency, effectiveness and probably togetherness. So I see this no matter how you spin it as a beneficial thing for any company, especially one in Athletics like Under Amour is and diversity is a very, very large part of that all entirely.

    You forget that in CRT guidebooks, they literally say it is impossible for black people to be racist.
