White hegemonic power.
KatInTheCorner
Their religion sends people to hell for eternity for not believing. Their God apparently invented cancel culture.
Orcus424
It's not cancel culture it's consequence culture.
TheBigBoldLlama
Cancel culture was originally started by them anyway... Deflection is what they do!
Higure
Even some republicans are calling it cancel culture. Such as senator Joni Ernst. Some of them still have a semblance of sanity.

talk about BS!. do as the orange man says or else.. thought this was a democratic country.
UnattendedDeviant
The phrase "cancel culture" is just another weapon in their culture war agenda. To be used whenever heloful. Btw...how's their Dr. Seuss 1/
....outrage agenda. Did the Repubs get all their use out of it?

I went on Ben Shapiro YouTube channel and asked in the comments about this. They said it wasn't cancel and that she didn't do her job
Trust me you can't win with people like this they refuse basic facts to start with.

well keep watching you won’t believe what happens next...

The real cancel culture is that guy winning the Derby by horse doping and people saying the horse probably shouldn't have the title /s
mrmartini
The Kentucky Derby is Decadent & Depraved

Colbert discribed it as filming a "just say no to drugs" commercial, and then celebrating by doing a line of coke off Nancy Reagan's ass.

Non-American here. Can someone please explain who is Liz Cheney and what happened? Thanking you in advance.
mardukkur
One of the only elected Republicans who has spoken out against Trump's coup attempt and lies about the election is being defenestrated.
americanomuerto
What a stupid question. She was in a position of representation of her party and she doesn’t represent them. They all believe/repeat the lie
FuckmotheringxVampire
I too would love to hear this explanation, or how about they explain how she is less qualified than miss GED Jewish space lasers.
Hey did they ever disprove her *checks notes* crazy, racist conspiracy nov l theory?...
FreebooterFox
Shit, at least Ms. Space Laser has a degree. Boebert just got her GED last year. Had a class debate about whether judges should be elected
or appointed. Folks argued voters would screen out unqualified candidates...But then no one had a rebuttal when I mentioned Boebert, lol.
Alphonsevaher
It's because they didn't elect her to go to Washington DC to 'do the right thing'
TheWombatStrikesAgain
There has been an extensive study on this matter, and people have come up with a theory: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypocrisy
Somethingsneaky
On the other hand, she just got all the reason to make the circuits of the morning talk shows, news shows and every semi-sane political chat
Draiki
The right cancel things all the time, but more on formal levels. Abortion laws for example.
SeasonedCitizen
I asked one, got a lecture on why Biden should be investigated. Way to stay on topic Cleetus.
I did the same on Ben Shapiro YouTube channel. Everyone there told me it wasn't cancel culture and that she was just not doing her job.
wejustdontknow
Whataboutism. A way of changing the subject because you have no answers.
BarryAllensSole
That's interesting. Did you know A duel of three people is called a truel? Anyway...
TrojanGiraffe
I just usually say:so you do agree with my original statement then? Idk why, but it pisses them off a lot
nickelrocket
What I think is more disturbing is she's being persecuted for not toeing the party line and agreeing with "Trump really won" lies.
Kenk25
Rather ridiculous statement as Cheny's removal has nothing to do with canceling but choosing a leader that supports the GOP platform
ItsNotMyGoddamnPlanet
They're absolutely trying to silence her. Also, Clymer is a douche.
softsuit
An Alert Reader noticed Arizona has a large Defense Industry employing lots of Voters who see the Industry being reined in. ->
We're talking retirees and defense. They lost the Presidency because the dude was bat sh÷t ?crazy. Liz is a symptom. Easy target.
nomological
Honestly, I think reducing this to an instance of cancel culture ignores the weight of the moment, a major political party at war w/reality.
In service of a demagogic leader, who incited a violent insurrection attempting to overthrow the United States government.
They're not at war with reality-They're at war with democracy. The "election was stolen" line is just window dressing for the upcoming coup.
DoktorWeasel
And in response they've all decided to become even more devoted to him. And the republican base thinks this is fine...

GrandProtectorDark
"Downvote and move on" should be the reasonable option, because the one that gets chosen is "complain about politics ruining imgur but 1/
2/ onky when it is politics you don't like"
alsoAzrael
My usual choice is to respond, and I never complain about politics ruining imgur. But sometimes you have to just let people be idiots.
It's ironic that you were downvoted but have no replies. :D I agree though, it's tough to decide sometimes.

1) Everyone gets confused about the whole "American right wing claims to hate Cancel Culture but cancels things all the time" thing, but it
2) is actually really simple. The way it works is this: when the Right cancels something, that's called boycotting, and is therefore legit.
3) When the Left boycotts something, that's cancelling and that's the worst thing ever. See? It's easy when you know.
Littleoldladygotmutilatedlatelastnight
We know.
Stanistani
Cap'n Boycott would be proud.
Krycodin
I kinda hope she joins the Dems and takes her voters with her. She probably stays independent though. GOP's loss either way.
She's positioning herself to be the saviour of the party when they try to distance themselves from Trump after he's on trial - planning
Eidodk
She's stilla republican, she's just no longer a leading member.
You guys are right. I'm not American and I mixed her up with someone else, who's name I can't even remember.
TheDayTheBrainStoodStill
If she had a stroke and decided to go Dem she'd lose all her voters. They're not voting for her, they're voting for that R next to her name.
CheesecakePi
She definitely won't go Democrat. She's not going for Trump's lies about the election, but she's still very conservative.
Corrodias
That'd hardly disqualify her. The D party contains a broad spectrum of politicians. They're just mostly united as "not fascist".

ilikepot8os
She voted 100% with trump. They can split the vote all they want but it won't matter because they will always fall in line
The 100 Republicans don't include Cheney, she's making a play to be the face of the party when Trump is so Toxic they finally dump him.
Not her, just a bunch of paleo-cons, and no one in power.
wellthatsjustyouropinion
we need at least 5 parties in the usa. if the republican party has to cannibalize itself this election cycle to get us going there, so be it
JacquesThree
You'd have to completely change the political system to support 5 functional non-trivial parties. If the Republicans split, one faction will

That's the best we can hope for. A split conservative vote. That way neither the Republican party nor these hypothetical former (1)

Support policy to help the country. They just want to go back to fucking things up but with less open racism.
