#MeToo and Cancel Culture: Friday is bring your own torches and pitchforks day!

They're eating their own children now (and again)...



For anyone who doesn't know, Teen Cogue Editor-in-Chief Alexi McCammond made news not too long ago as a controversial Axios reporter who was dating a Biden staffer while engaging in her unbiased journalism. Said Biden staffer then threatened a Vanity Fair reporter who was going to report on their intriguing relationship. This story surfaced again a few days ago when she was tapped to become the Editor-in-Chief of the far left popular culture magazine aimed at teenagers known as Teen Vogue.

Conde Nast taps Axios reporter tied to axed Biden aide for Teen Vogue EIC

The Axios political reporter whose relationship with a Biden aide made headlines after he threatened a reporter looking to expose the affair has been tapped to be the next editor-in-chief of Teen V…

Turns out she made some Tweets about a decade ago mocking Asians. How unfortunate.

Oddly these tweets didn't surface (at least on a large scale) when it was revealed her boyfriend was threatening reporters or while she was being a journalist reporting for Axios on politics while dating a Biden staffer, but only now that she got a promotion to another magazine. Sad.

It turns out one of the staffers at Teen Vogue who works as a Senior Social Media Manager at the same magazine celebrated the firing of the new agent Alexi McCammond over those ten year old tweets. However this Teen Vogue staffer, who goes by the name Christine Davitt, had even older tweets of her own suddenly surface where she too uses racist slurs including how much she loves to use the term 'White Niggers.' Sad.

People are saying they will BOYCOTT Jeopardy for the two weeks because Dr. Oz... The famous television Doctor has issued questionable medical advice in the past... Which is true... But still funny.

Past Jeopardy contestants issued an "open letter" about their concerns of the Host and #BoycottJeopardy trended on Twitter of course.

I guess the lack of perfection is greatly disturbing to many perfect Jeopardy fans. Sad.

The whole guest host thing hasn't been great. The executive producer of the show "stepped in" because they couldn't find anybody in Hollywood to host the show, not at all because he seems to be a game show host hopeful and was fine but had that clunky sign off message that would have been fine once or twice but every day just became noise. Katie Couric was Katie Couric. Dr. OZ seems an even worse choice. Some of these hosts seem ill-suited but I'll continue to reserve judgement on the 60 minutes anchor, the GF of Bazinga and the football player. So far I don't want any of them back as regular host.

You and your valid reasons for why the guest hosts should be cancelled! Get out of here! 😛

Voice Actor Jeff Leach was fired from Activision over 'mysogynistic' remarks he apparently made back in December of 2020 when some (his descriptive words) 'fat, gross, toxic, emo troll' entered one of his Twitch streams and he mocked her ruthlessly (but then offered her to suck his girthy cock) for a bit. Now five months later some other tool edited a video with that clip and started a campaign to get him cancelled. Already Activision axed him (he was the voice of CoD character 'Ghost) but there's a plethora of multidyed feminist gamers wanting him fired from his partnerships with FaceBook gaming and anything and everything else.

Man I miss the days when MW2 was out and saying shit like that was nothing more then everyday occurrence.
When 12 year oldd would say they fucked your mother and you laugh as you show them how bad you were.

I loved the day of playing MW2 as an 8 year old.
Dissing people and saying shit.
I learned a full 3 quarters of all the bad language I know from the MW2 chat.

Not defending or criticizing the guy in question, but ten or fifteen years ago, Halo games' online multiplayers would like cause anyone with a thin skin, such as the average feminist, to have their brains dribble out their ears.

You honestly don't want people with thin skins playing with you in multiplayer because they fold under pressure.

Halo, COD, and BF were the games where the voice chat was so bad and toxic. The N word was thrown around. Fuck and every other curse word as well.
Hell, it still sorta is just not on the same level

 

[LordsFire]

You know, it's funny. I've been a gamer since the 90's as well, and even when your temper is running down, if you just exert some basic self-control, your bitching or trash-talking will be much more PG. Then you wouldn't be in this kind of scenario.

Of course, that doesn't change the fact that 'ruining someone's life for being crass' is still incredibly stupid and sets a terrible precedent.

And Counter-Strike. I mean 1.6 and Source.

You'd be surprised how vulgar the French and Russian players can be.

Unless we bring back dueling. Give the person an opportunity to face their accuser on the field of honour. At the very least there needs to be consequences to actions like this, or it will never end.

Or actually restore the other social controls on such things. Didn't they have some interesting ways of dealing with gossips back in the Middle Ages?

Edit: You know what...some ways are too interesting. Maybe just public rebuke and chastisement, and some other minor punishments would be more...appropriate. Brutalizing people isn't a good thing, and punishments should be within measure.

There's no reason we can't have both. Trials by combat are very medieval, and need not even draw blood with edged weapons if you go back to the sources.

Possibly. I might have been going too far in the first place, but traditional dueling was limited and did satisfy honour. And was controlled, it would definitely be an improvement over informal fighting, especially if it someone jumping another person. Though we ended dueling for a reason...but if we properly control it then it might just become a proper social tool. And with dueling, you also have to make sure that it is fair and doesn't incentivize professional duelers.

 

[Urabrask Revealed]

that it is fair

In what sense of the word tho? Because you bet your ass that the Left will try to make it as loopsided as possible so they can continue to get away from consequences. Maybe some shit like "The one initiating the Duel must wear a blindfold to ensure fairness".

The HRE states had provisions for judicial duels between married couples. The man was made to stand in a hole in the ground up to his armpits. He had a wooden club with a hook for grabbing her feet and she had a rock in a sock basically.
