In June 2020, when Minneapolis was rattled by the brutal custodial murder
of George Floyd and consequent Black Lives Matter protests, the Wadis
became avid supporters of the movement. They even showed their solidarity
by flaunting BLM banners from their stores as well as donating food
for free to demonstrators. In fact, Lianne herself marched in the BLM
protest rallies. However, Lianne's tweets from 2012, which she had even
deleted long back, mysteriously resurfaced around that time. The highly
offensive tweets portrayed racist sentiments against Black people and
the Jewish community. Some of her tweets were also blatantly homophobic
and body-shaming.
I dunno if it was well-deserved or not (what did the father do that merited the loss of 69 jobs?), but didn't someone famous say "The left always eats its own"?The problem with the woke movement is that it's dominated by the extreme members[1], and the non-extreme members aren't allowed to speak up against the excesses of the movement anyway.
There is no forgiveness, there is no compromise, there is no leeway for nuance of thought. All together, that's a very dangerous movement; it's a movement where thought is forbidden, and we all saw how that turned out multiple times in history.
[1] Probably a very vocal minority, but with large impact when it comes to effects on people.
Then I matured, changed my stance on so many other important matters as well.
According to you everyone who has evolved in the right direction deserves to be cancelled because some time in the past they were wrong.
It's hard to wrap one's mind around such attitude. The far left will eat itself. Maybe that's how it's supposed to be.
The same goes for Donald Trump. After being banned from Twitter, Facebook, and any other platform, there is no chance of him ever being elected again. If he ran in 2024, the total information dominance his opponent would have is simply too strong.
