[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a liberal who has always hated 'cancel culture'. But I dont get how liberals who were fine with it when it impacted predators and conservatives, are suddenly incensed when it is turned around. Like - we invented this monster. and it was always a monster. We should not be shocked that the monster is co opted. [/quote]

Excuse me? Liberals didn’t invent cancel culture. This is a long-established conservative tactic. I mean, what do you think McCarthyism *was?*[/quote]

Amen, PP. The GOP has a looooong history of telling people what to think and do, starting with telling women what they can/can't do with their bodies and what people can do in their bedrooms.

List of things conservatives have cancelled

What the GOP is masterful at--its key advantage--is coming up with buzzwords/phrases that resonate with certain voters by appealing to their fears and which engage them in the political process. "Cancel culture" is just one of them but there are may others: woke/woke left, elites, parental rights, states' rights, weaponization, big government, tax-and-spend liberals, fake news, grooming, and so much more.
