It's not "cancel culture", it's terrorism. When you threaten a person's job, family, friends, life it ain't free speech anymore.

Actions have consequences and life isn't fair...I figured people would have learned this by now...lawd.

No, it's disproportionate. This is a Jacobin revolution going on right now.

Meh, both sides are blowing this out of proportion. I mean this has affected how many people? 50? 100? Seems like there's some underlying thoughts that are being covered by this faux outrage.

it's affecting half the population and soon, will be affecting the other half as well. If you personally refuse to consider having sex with a biological male person with full intact genitalia who's never had any kind of hormone treatment and has never don't anything at all to look like a real woman-- if you won't date someone like that then you are a BIGOT (according to the trans activists) and deserve all the abuse they throw at you. including getting you fired from your job and unable to find new employment in your field.

That is their attitude, not mine.

Like I said, your argument holds no water. You cherry pick one crazy opinion and paint a whole swathe of the population and parade around claiming it as facts now, kinda like the media does with their bias. It wasn't true when you said it, and it won't be true in the future.

You're so right, ACTIONS have consequences. But words are not actions, although the line has been thoroughly blurred between the two. "Saying _____ is literal violence!!" screeched the mob.

Speaking is an action, go to your boss and tell him to go fuck himself and see what happens. If you don't run around spewing hate, you won't get cancelled.

your opinion might change when you realize that one of your own views that you define as benign, neutral, sane..even important...has been declared "hate speech."

Can you give me an example?
