No, it's been known to be racist for a long time, but widespread awareness of that fact is relatively recent.

I guess fratboy didn't get the memo.  He does love costumes...

I don't think that's it.

I think that there's something else at play.

It's halarious that the people least likely to be offended by blackface are the ones who will never shut up about it.

It's just a seemingly obvious example where this phenomena where Social Media posts from years back are used to re-rail people's future employment prospects didn't have any consequences, electorally.

JT seems to be teflon regarding these. To be fair, so does Doug Ford.

oh I am the exception

Our PM makes morality into his personal badge to the detriment of the country

He politicitizes being human and of course the anti-humans among us react as expected

That seems a little harsh.  I have an electric fly-swatter for the mosquitos we get hereabouts but I'm not out to exterminate them.  Hornets on the other hand. Completely useless creatures as far as I've been concerned ever since I got stung about 40 times once.  And no I wasn't asking for it but...well, I'll have to tell you about it sometime.

Yellowjackets have been particularly bad around here the last few years.   I’ve invested in electric swatters to fight them off.

In another example of cancel culture getting out of control, Fatty Arbuckle was tried and ACQUITTED of killing a woman by allegedly puncturing her bladder with a bottle, but they still made it literally ILLEGAL to show his movies.

Miami fires firefighter after disparaging messages about police, slain detective




Wild that cops can shoot a bunch of innocent people while trying to kill an unarmed suspect or beat the everloving sh*t out of a suspect and get like paid desk duty, but talking smack about the cops in a private chat gets this guy fired. Where are all the free speech warriors on this?

Jim Ladd, basically the best rock DJ on Sirius XM, has been let go as I understand.

His not so subtle references to the Republican cloud covering the culture currently May be why.

One of the funnier "cancel culture" stories I've seen in a while: rich white couple accused of hosting a racist-themed party, denies that they're racist and complain about cancel culture and then admit, well yes, the wife actually runs a virulently racist anonymous Twitter account.

Quote
The wealthy upstate woman accused of throwing a racist Juneteenth party attempted to defend herself at a bizarre press conference Tuesday, insisting the event was meant to mock liberals — not black people — but admitting to being racist on Twitter.

Mary Nicosia, who is white, set off a firestorm in Rochester, NY after reportedly decorating her lawn with buckets of Kentucky Fried Chicken for a Juneteenth party where she served Hennessy.

A defiant Nicosia called the press conference Tuesday to address the suit, saying “I’m here to defend myself from false claims of racism.”

She then stunned the room with her subsequent comment.

“But before I do that, in full disclosure, I do have a Twitter parody account that operates under a veil of a persona — and I have made blatantly racist comments under that persona,” she confessed.
...
Nicosia’s lawyer, Corey Hogan, displayed the invitation for the party at the presser in an effort to absolve his client of racism, saying it was called the “1st annual Liberal Smashin Splish Splash Pool Party.”

Hogan insisted it was intended to mock liberals, and was about politics, not race, and claimed the KFC buckets were not intended to hold meaning. Most of the decorations, he said, were meant to be “liberal bashing.”

He did, however, say her online presence was prejudiced.

“No question, you look at her Twitter account — yup, that’s racist,” the lawyer told reporters, adding, “there’s no justification for it.”

Yet, Hogan contradicted himself during the presser, saying, “I challenge you, the press — look into their background, find anything in their lives, their 50-plus-year lives, that’s racist.”
