"Military Police Officer who recently joined a Civil Affairs Unit. She is now Civil Affairs Qualified" - okay - and? So what?

"She probably has Security Clearance that has been updated. " - What does this even mean? Updated to what? Also having a security clearance doesn't really mean anything. They were handing them out like candy for years which is why they're auditing all of them to see who really needs one and who doesn't.

Now on her comments - quite the stretch. Cancel culture isn't real - not the way people throw it around. All "cancel culture" is now is something that people in power throw out there when they face consequences for their actions or receive any type of criticism. People in power aren't used to having to face any consequences so when they are held accountable for things they say or do, they wanna cry and play the victim.

Since the creation of social media, people who used to be marginalized can express themselves unlike ever before - and that means not allowing bigoted behavior or sexism, racism, etc to not be tolerated like they used to be. People who have been used to having some type of privilege can't handle the culture shift so they cry "CaNcEl CuLtUrE!" This is how they delegitimize the criticism they receive.

Also cancel culture isn't real because you can't "cancel" a person. Have you ever heard anyone in your adult life say "We can't work with that person, I'm afraid they've been officially and formally cancelled." No. That never happens. All "cancelling" someone consists of is boycotting that person or that business or that organization that you disagree with.

There really hasn't been anyone "cancelled" - name one person cancelled recently since the term "cancel culture" became a thing. One person who never worked again, never had a platform again, cut off from all of society, erased from existence.

I really have no clue what Gabbard's point is in this and the article is extremely short and lacking any context. I don't know how she got from people criticizing someone's horrible behavior to ISIS and beheading.

SFC Kelly Fuerhoff - Keep telling yourself that. It so bad that even Bill Maher had to say something about it.

SSG Robert Perrotto When you see progressive talk show host saying cancel culture exists, maybe you should think it's not just conservatives being crazy....

Remember that Nike kissed ass to one blistering idiot over the Nike shoe that they wanted to produce. Nike was so stupid just ask one militant. Nike was even ordering distributors to bring the shoes back for destruction. Cancel culture does exist.

I am including an insult to Hillary Clinton because everybody she disagrees with, she calls a Russian asset. I am including an insult to Hillary Clinton because everybody she disagrees with, she calls a Russian asset She made a fake dossier for president trump which dogged him his whole administration and she can't stand someone like tulsi who disagreed with her because she backed Bernie Sanders. I am just saying that a person who is a Russian asset would not normally last for a long in the American government. The only exception could be the spy who got shaged by the China Chinese Spy and protected by Nancy Pelosi.

CPL Earl Kochis - Individual states have the power to ignore any gun control measures taken by the Federal Government - everyone gets hung up on POTUS like they are some kind of King, as if they have the power to force States to abide by their decrees, not even Congress can enforce legislation on the States, The tenth amendment clearly Gives the states the power to determine their own course, and the preamble of the Constitution clearly defines what the role of the Federal Government is.

too many people have no understanding of how our country works, what the roles of government are, and how Government functions. States are fairly autonomous.
