In America, leftists like to say “there is no such thing as cancel culture. It’s just #consequences, baby! :3”, and would gladly let those who fail their standards starve to death.
 
I wonder if they would support things like this and this : these are what some people mention as “cancel culture” or “callout culture”. People like them are why I hate Americans and Twitter, as if they love to harrass people.
 
What do you have to say about things like this and this ? I worry that these youngster mobs might also come after me, and they are why I don’t trust Americans.

20 GOTO 10, with the tl;dr version being that liberals listen to Pod Save America, while leftists listen to Chapo Trap House. As for the Bernie Bro(nie) comparison, Sorkinite liberals hate Bernie Bros, and supported that snake Elizabeth Warren over our boy Bernie because the latter’s fanbase was “rude” and that Bernie himself wasn’t “electable” or “presidential”…which is pretty fucking funny given who the last president was.

Cancel culture was done to the left and they said it dont exist? Literally they couldnt even recognize even when it bit them in the ass?
 
What, you think red-baiting or outing ppl trying to get unionized as commie / commie symptahizer to get their careers ruined werent cancel culture?
 
Get outta here. To quote username Violet Rose:  
Up until recently Cancel Culture was a tool used by the right.
 
So, ppl on the right. If you wanna say Cancel culture to exist then admit you been doing the same shit.
 
Ppl on the left. If yu wanna say it was consequences then it was also consequences back then.

I’m an outsisder looking at you guys practically playing the same game and I’m not realizing that it’s a competitive game, and not a co-op game.
 
I always have had the assumption that the left and the right have the best intention for the entire citizens of USA and are working together to solve something out, like engineers and contractors would when they’ve been assigned a problem and project.
 
I didnt realize this wasn’t it.

People sometimes feared that leftists might hound them for some mistake they’ve made, so that’s why they try to pander to leftists by making their works more “diverse” or implementing poorly-written works to attract their sales. It’s not about locking kids in cages, but about fans harassing people on the Internet: that is what chuds and some artists consider as “cancel culture”.
 
What do you have to say about these fans? Would these be tolerated as “consequences”?

Could you explain what is a “Sorkinite”? Are they like the Bernie Bros?
 
Sorkinites are the people that follow the romantic vision of Washington political policy as put forward by director-writer-producer Aaron Sorkin, the man behind such TV series as The West Wing or the Newsroom. Generally speaking, Sorkinite political philosophy is consistently marked lacking substance and is made up with my style. What substance it does have is purely managerial, but doesn’t hold to itself anything other than the current state of nature being the best of all possible options. It’s a very conservative brand of democratic liberalism at the “End of Histoy” in the Francis Fukuyama sense; that being with the collapse of the Soviet Union liberal capitalism won the battle of history and all that was left was an eternity of simply managing the world, there was no longer a grand battle. However Fukuyama has been proven a hundred times wrong and has been forced to revise his thesis as many times before surrendering and becoming a Dengist, but that’s unrelated.
 
Generally speaking, Aaron Sorkin doesn’t like to acknowledge there are any serious issues in the world that can’t be solved with striking a good deal and sweeping rhetoric. Evidence from his filmography that can be best used to illustrate it this is the opening scene of Newsroom where “Jeff Newsroom” goes on a rant that America isn’t great because of raw statistics proving him objectively correct and are supposedly apolitical.
 
Aaron Sorkin in his writer’s rooms lessons or whatever has said also that he doesn’t write characters, but problems which are solved by people with the perfect skill set and abilities to solve them. So you have a class of middle class or upper middle class Washington greenhorns who believe that they are those people with the perfect skill sets because they went to all the big colleges and took all the right classes and grew up in the right socio-economic class that gives them the perfect placement and power to ride into DC like any one of Aaron Sorkin’s copy-pasted characters and can policy into existence a better America. What you get is a more cloistered class of monkish beaurecrats who work more like Chinese eunuchs than the heroes they believe they are.
 
 
Berniebros on the other hand are a generally on the social-democratic side of things and believe that America is fundamentally broken and can be fixed by structural shifts. They’re made up more by working class families or college-educated professionals who didn’t go into a civil-service profession but all the same came out of college with the sociological and historical mindset one picks up there to vaguely understand that something went wrong in the late 70’s and the 80’s when the New Deal Coalition of the 30’s and 40’s finally died and they want that era back. But they are also a movement without a backing, unlike the Sorkinite Liberals who operate in the normal fabric of assumed politics of America. Though I’d also accuse the Berniebros as sort of operating on the same framework as the Sorkinites but more alert and aware of the fundamental failures of the America state when it comes to their class, since they’ve long lived outside of the endowed class of Americans; they’re still a group who think their perfect candidate can sweep in from the sides and take center stage because their policies are the right policies, and more rightly so than Biden or Hillary in a more purely rationally centered bourgeoise manner

Wasn’t there a big kerfuffle when some picture of kids in cages was being pinned on Trump, and then it turns out the picture predated the Trump administration and it was under Obama that the pic was taken? Now you could argue that Obama isn’t a leftist, that no president has truly been a leftist, so therefore they haven’t done anything bad. That is just sophistry though.

GOTO is bad and you should feel bad. (It’s not your fault. The original BASIC didn’t even have structured IF or WHILE blocks.)
 
@AaronMk  
I always thought there was something a little perverse about the hopes people pinned on Bernie. You look at how little Trump accomplished, and then you consider that the Democratic establishment probably hates Bernie more than the GOP hated Trump. AOC, for all her fiery rhetoric, seems to be “playing the game” better than Sanders ever did.
 
And that’s how you get shit done in this country: by playing the game or flipping the table. Table-flipping isn’t generally an option for the people in Washington, though a foolish few have tried. Instead you learn the rules, and you learn how to break them. It’s like football, or any sport. Figure out how much the refs will let you get away with, then go a little bit further than that, just to keep the other guys on their toes. If no one in your party is going to jail, you’re probably doing something wrong. It’s a much skeevier business than Sorkin would ever admit. (Of course, he also made the Facebook movie, and given what we know about them now…)

Fanatical socialists who support Bernie so much, they might act as if he has done nothing wrong. I might support him because he seems less corrupt than the other candidates, but I don’t defend him as much as they do.
 
Something like Trumpsters but with Bernie instead of Trump. At least they are not racists and they are not as violent as the former.
