I recently heard a comedian say that getting "canceled" by the Right is like getting fired, while being canceled by the "Left" is like getting a promotion. Why is that? Think Bud Light vs American Eagle.

Does, by any chance even if just a small fraction of a chance, this comedian lean ever so slightly just barely right of center?

It’s all culture war bullshit. Conservatives are quick to support anyone/anything that gets canceled by liberals for reasons they deem to be woke. So yeah, u do get a promotion so to speak, but only among a very specific and undesirable crowd lol. Russell Brand is a prime example of a guy who’s gone full conservative dirtbag just because it was the only audience that would still accept him after all his SA allegations

Remove comedians from it.

“Left” politicians are expected to be perfect, while the “right” has chosen to elevate a thieving pedophile to King of America.

Hmmm good point, but I feel it's the opposite.

Agree

What comedian was this?

Financially, it’s often the complete opposite and that’s the delusion of someone who spent years in open mics honing their craft vs an office surrounded by spreadsheets seeing market impact. Bud light was technically double canceled, by the right first then by the left because of the panic pull back.

American Eagle is currently taking the hit.

think of Target, or all the companies that proudly canceled DEI. All sharp drops, but Costco skyrocketed for staying the course and doing nothing.

I’d like an example of a company doing better after the left canceled them vs a company that went under because the right canceled them. Unless is a firmly predominantly conservative market/product, universally the city markets drive consumer spending benchmarks and are more heavily left-sided.

I had the weirdest dream. Criminals were put in a gated community under observation and they had to successfully fake their own death to get out. They were given too many drugs and alcohol. But they end up killing each other or suiciding and no one is left. Once everyone kills themselves they bring in new inmates. It was insane.

My brain needs a rehab now. 🥺
