Is it "cancel culture" or "accountability culture" and is it really a thing?

Yeah. They are real things. Al Franken, a huge supporter of women's rights and a great Senator, was cancelled. By women.

It's not about "accountability." It's about vengeance with no opportunity for apology or growth. And, just as importantly, it seems to be more about the "look at me" virtue signalling that so many seem to get off on these days.

Moreover, from where I'm standing as a Democrat it's just handing votes to the GOP. If people want to yell at each other that's one thing. But when it comes to those in the public eye, or someone who had a brief lapse of judgement only to have their lives destroyed? That shit has to stop.
@Ynotisay That went too far. If Trump could do the things he did and not only hope to [b]remain[/b] president, but run again, someone like Franken, who used his office to [b]support[/b] women’s rights, should’ve received some leeway.

@bijouxbroussard It's amazing when you hold the character, integrity and honesty of those two against each other. I don't get it.
