Yeah it's pretty telling how much of a sacred cow this is for so many people

i dont think the ppl expressing their outrage here realize the screenshot of their content is being amplified and shared on other platforms not because they agree with it but purely for comedy.

so steadfast is their view point as the only possible view that they cant imagine/realize many of us are laughing at them.

coupled with the discoverability of usernames connected to their other real world profiles and the virality of their comic, it probably is unwise to be labelled far-left or 'woke' in professional circles going forward.

You're saying that the heretics will be suppressed?

has anybody suppressed anyone from making a fool of themselves?

You're saying people will face professional consequences for their political opinions. That seems like the kind of thing Graham is complaining about to me.
