By conservatives? Not sure what you're talking about but if it happened where a mob of conservatives got together to cancel someone, it was wrong.

The dixie chicks.

Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin and Dolly Parton after the 2017 Emmys. (they really go after the women)

Dr. Fauci
Greta Thunberg
BLM

The Right has literally coined the phrase "own the Libs".

Aren't all those things still around and as popular as ever with the fools who have always supported them?

I think you're getting cancel culture mixed up with critique.

In order for something to be a victim of cancel culture it would have to be...you know...canceled.

Or at least slowed down. Like say, recently Mr. Potato Head, now known, simply as, "Potato Head." The 'Mister' has been canceled.

Or Doctor Seuss. The cancel culture even got the Biden administration to jump through hoops for them on that one. Look it up.

The "Progressive" mindset seems to have a problem with the obvious so I'll try to point it out to you so you can see it.

Let's take the recent one I mentioned where the cancel cretins tried to cancel CPAC. It was a forceful targeted online, phone and letter mob attack of threats and insults directed specifically at the Hyatt Regency chain of Hotels specifically meant to have Hyatt Regency publicly denounce and refuse service to CPAC.

Although, apparently I exaggerated Hyatt's bravery in not responding to the attack.

They didn't break but they did buckle.

Fauci, Thunberg, and BLM are stronger than ever.

Fauci, however is still a 2 faced, and most likely mercenary, hypocrite. Thunberg is still a poor little thing advantaged by partisan adults and BLM is still an organization created by Communists to advantage the easily influenced into creating tribal chaos.

Saying so isn't an organized, targeted attack with a specific intent. It's just me noticing what should be obvious.

[N_Fiddledog]

In fairness though, I should tell you that the popular Website IMDB.com polled its user base and discovered Gina Carano is now the most popular celebrity in America, possibly on earth.

That's more a reaction to the over-reach of cancel culture though. Kind of a Streisand effect.

[raydan]

The only thing you've confirmed is that the Left is better than the Right at this.

Or maybe it's just because Fauci, Thunberg and BLM aren't pussies and can easily survive the pitiful attacks coming from the Right.

It's also because of what they're being "cancelled" for.

Fauci, people tried to cancel him for at best making dumb decisions in a pandemic early on to at worst being butt hurt they have to wear a mask

Thunberg, to try and make sure we don't assfuck our environment and cause widespread damage to the planet and our civilization

BLM, for trying to get cops to stop shooting black people.

Then you look at what righties get cancelled for, they aren't really comparable. Shit like perpetuating literally insane conspiracy theories, making racists statements, making statements that are tone deaf and completely idiotic after being told to shut the fuck up by her employer etc.

But what else would you expect from gas lighting fascists like Fiddle?

This week, one of the web’s most dominant film sites ranked Carano as the most popular actress in Hollywood. IMDB.com’s “Star Rating” feature lets users rank the actors they care about the most at any given time.

Oh no! An easily manipulated online poll! That’ll put us in our place.

[N_Fiddledog]

Yes, IMDB is fickle but the point remains factual. Cancel Culture failed at making Gina Carano a pariah but the attack on her was still Cancel Culture and not simply criticism.

It was a specific mob of a known division of Cancel Creeps that habitually call for the deplatforming of specific people calling for the cancellation of somebody to the wokesters in the Kennedy faction of Disney and getting a result.

It's not a poll, it's based largely on views. So if someone is making national news for something, they're going to shoot to the top of the list because people are going to search their name. It means less than nothing.

How are these ratings calculated?

IMDbPro uses proprietary algorithms that take into account several measures of popularity for people, titles and companies. The primary measure is who and what people are looking at on IMDb.

The rankings are updated on a weekly basis, typically by the end of Monday.

But again in the interest of fairness, and because Prog-bots seem to be having a problem finding specific examples of the other side is adopting the practice of cancel culture there's this:

#CancelDisneyPlus trends after Gina Carano fired from ‘The Mandalorian’

That's more a reaction than an action though and I'm not sure it's just the right doing it.
