> That was pre-Trump, afterwards anything seems to go.. none goes to jail and all is for sale, as long as you pay the hand. That's the perception we have as Europeans from live in America.

> I think it's stupid to remove such a successful CEO, the public perception of him is still quite damn positive

If you think being a successful CEO should mean that you can do whatever you want, it seems that you look at Trump's America and...like what you see?

The law is one thing, and shouldn't discriminate on CEO status. but the decline of "cancellations" for various infractions of political correctness is definitely a positive in my book

I'd love statistical evidence that "cancellations" have decreased under Trump. As far as I can tell, the only thing that might have changed is who is being "cancelled."

And people generally seem to be arguing and trying to destroy the lives of the people they disagree with at a higher rate than ever.

Has the right cancelled anyone? Like, a single person?

The biggest thing I can think of was a single episode of Jimmy Kimmel, lol. Which came from an incredibly bald-faced lie, on regulated public TV, about a high-sensitivity murder that had just happened.

Trump literally tried to ban the press from the White House but putting that aside:

I'm sorry but that list HAS to be satire, right?

Amazon and Apple were cancelled?

> tried to

Yeah I think this is the key thing. Sure, some small groups of conservatives would have liked to "cancel" some things. But unlike the left, they have literally never succeeded.

Yeah, they've been too busy grifting, running crypto scams, selling pardons:

"Cancellation" is just how the rich spell "the consequences of my actions".

Being burned by a mob is technically a consequence of the action of appearing like a witch.

That doesn't imply that's a good and healthy way to run a society.

Yes, the consequence-free current administration has been soooo much better for the US.

Ummm yes, I'll take the incredibly bold position that the US in 2026 is superior to the literal Salem Witch Trials
