Another Right-Wing Shibboleth

Like "political correctness" before it, "cancel culture" is almost exclusively a scare-phrase with little to no bearing on the actual problems of society.

Cancel culture is so pervasive that there's barely any evidence it exists, great stuff. https://t.co/ACraqTwKl8

There are some ridiculous people out there writing ridiculous things.

A Grim Milestone

We’re now hitting 2,000 deaths per day and looks like COVID19 will once again become the leading cause of death on a daily basis in America. By Mon Tues this week we’ll likely exceed the number of Americans who died in the 1918-21 flu pandemic (675,000) https://t.co/ujzGGmAca3

Covid has now killed more Americans in 18 months than all the wars of the 20th century combined. And people are out here complaining that requiring unvaxxed workers to get tested once a week is an unreasonable burden. Be serious.
