    Anyone read that article then see the picture of "Mr. Galligan", and say, "hol up!"?


    The sad thing is that kids don't realize that they're making records of their childhood stupid that will later haunt them (in this case three years later). It sounds like the girl in question used "the N word" is a colloquial manner and not a as a slur, and the boy in question is doing everything he can to destroy anyone else for not being woke.
    No, the sad thing is why is....

    Why are we holding a child responsible for a spoken moment in their teen years.
    I'm betting that on any given day of any week of any year that there are millions of examples far worse. But yet here we are. I consider this almost as bad as "Revenge Porn" where a young woman's life is destroyed in the same way and manner.

    The media's attacks on Trump over the last 5 years have made it culturally acceptable to attack and destroy people. They are just treating this white girl the way the media have treated Trump.

    Well, except she doesn't deserve it.

    Kids are dumb. Kids say stupid **** and can't comprehend consequences. Totally unfair.

    Plus these kids buy into the rap culture thinking it is cool, and then act and speak like those songs and videos they like. They are then cancelled for not being of the proper skin tone to be able to do so.

    Cutting a word out of context like that is ridiculous. Of course those partaking in the cancel culture feel context has no meaning, when in reality it means everything.

    If you believe Trump deserves it, you probably should remove Lincoln's quote.
    There's something totally different between a teenage girl getting her life destroyed for one episode of mindless ignorance of social standards vs. being a voluntary player in world politics.

    Please list all of the Democrats that have been treated that way.

    Maybe tell us about all of the Republicans that have not.
    Is it just me, or does INGO seem really heated today?

    :chillpill:


    Stop trying to pretend I don't know or agree that the left has weaponized the cancel culture.
    And yes, they do occasionally eat their own; just ask Al Franken.



    I just don't agree that this girl's experience relates to DJT's. Apples and Oranges. He's no martyr, and his tweets are done from blissful ignorance.

    Just to address the edit, months ago someone kept insisting that asymptomatic people can't infect other people because the viral load wouldn't be sufficient. I posted a study which demonstrated that the viral load in asymptomatic and presymptomatic people can indeed be enough to infect people. I mean, it's the whole reason everyone has to wear masks. Because infected, but asymptomatic/presymptomatic people, don't know they're spreading it. But, maybe subsequent research has reached a different conclusion.

    I think that, and this is just instinctive, the vaccine will probably reduce the effective R0, who knows to what extent. Maybe to the point where the virus just burns out? Or not. Regardless, I don't it does not sound to me like the experts are as confident as you are that vaccinated people won't spread it. They seem to be standing with their fingers crossed, while you're standing with your arms folded. I hope your confidence is justified. Would be great to just end this.
    Or, it could be they just want to keep people scared, compliant and in a mask forever/for the forseeable future. Measles is a MUCH more transmissible infection (R0 usually given as 12 to 18), but I am not aware of any cautions about a vaccinated person being able to harbor and/or transmit the disease

    Why?

    Pretty much. She’s talking like pop culture talks. I think we need to decide what that word means once and for all. If every instance of white people using it is bad, it’s probably also bad for black people to use the word. Either no one should be able to say it or everyone should.
