Absolutely correct. It astounds me when people refuse to recognize that Freedom of Speech is a two-way street. Personally, I even consider Hate Speech free speech. But you can't cry foul if the crowd turns against you and enacts THEIR freedom to choose. I remember way back when the Dixie Chicks talked shit on America on their European tour. They got back home and their fans, more or less, told them to go fuck themselves. The "chicks" are still complaining about it to this day. I don't understand what they didn't get about their Country fans who tend to more Conservative and Patriotic dumping them. And as far as Kimmel goes, there's way more to this than a slap from the FCC. I would hazard a guess that his show has probably been getting shit viewing numbers, but the company was stuck in a contract with him. I will bet good money that this was their way of getting out from under it. And let's face it: his cancellation is going to do nothing to end his career. Chappelle, Gervais, Jimmy Carr, Seinfield, John Cleese and other comedians were all canceled, and they haven't missed a booking yet. Some network will snatch Kimmel up and preen him as the Liberal who fought The Man and won. Entertainment companies are savvy and they watched Gillette, Budweiser, Target and now Cracker Barrel take an ass-pounding when they went Woke. They will do what they always do, ride the wave of fashion and continue broadcasting to the masses. That's not the Libs anymore. Two decades from now we'll have Woke shows and games again and so on and so on when the wheel spins back again.

I am mystified at how the Left who called for Cancel Culture non-stop during their brief reign are now crying Freedom of Speech and Expression. I don't recall this many firings and boycotts during their reign but the backlash from the Kirk assassination is astounding. I don't understand how the freaks do not understand how badly they have lost. They went to war with the Normies and the Normies won. They need to accept and move on. The interesting part is how they keep crying that they have to stop the country going Fascist when it was stopped with the ousting of Biden. When women, Latinas and African-Americans vote for Trump, you know you've lost.

Oh, the Left has Radicalized like nothing I've ever seen in my 59 years. My own brother has even fallen under their spell. He literally hung up on me the other day and he is (virtually) shouting in people's faces on Facebook. It's insane. Our extended family has traditionally been rather apolitical. I don't know what's come over him. Maybe because he joined a Union? Or because he hangs out with a bunch of fucked-up SCA nerds who bang whatever they can get because they're, well, nerds. "I'm a sword fighter who like girls and boys" reenactors or something. All I know is I want to hug him and punch him in the fucking face at the same time.

I think the funniest part about this entire "outrage" is, it's business as usual and the Woke Crowd doesn't get it. Corporations have always had ads featuring attractive people to sell their stuff. I mean, how many companies lost literally hundreds of millions in revenue after going Woke? Budweiser, Gillette, Harley Davidson, Target and that's just off the top of my head. There's no way they're going to keep supporting it because less than ten percent of the country might not buy their shit. This country stood up and shut down that Cultural Shift hard and emphatic in the last election. There are lot of people who probably don't like Trump but voted for him because that was the only way to stop this slide. The corporations see that more than anyone else and know that to keep the money coming in, they better play to the bigger audience.
