Taylor Swift to Fox News: "Don't get involved in journalism...oh wait"

Meat, 18 years.

Microwave ice cream that was scooped in a bowl for 8 seconds to soften it.

Technically, humans or homo sapiens sapiens are apes.

I have been doing it for decades.

Public cancellation costs people their jobs, livelihoods, and even their lives because a sensitive, loud, and naive sub section of the population felt "triggered" by someone else's right to free speech. This, in turn, makes others wary of the things they say and inhibits their free speech.

People are presumed guilty without due process and are forced to grovel and apologize for otherwise meaningless acts which elevated the anxieties of the super sensitive. This is a witch hunt and has happened before in the US in Salem and during the McCarthy era. Both periods are seen as sore spots in our history.

This is convenient when your opinion is with the majority. It a threat and unsustainable when your opinion is no longer the majority opinion.

"Full stop".

I think you've missed the point or the intent of the first amenmdebt itself if you are asking that question.

As for your second question, that is a straw man argument.

Public cancellation or being cancelled by a sensitive sub section of the population threatens free speech.

With cancel culture being so sensitive, free speech is under attack. I disagree with NewsMax and Nazis, but they have a right to express themselves without being cancelled.

It is the first amendment which allows you to make your statement freely without fear of state-sponsored reprise.

Netflix offers choices for entertainment. I don't like most of the content on Netflix, but I don't think it should be canceled just because I dislike it.

My point exactly. Thanks to the Bill of Rights, the people have certain reserved and protected rights. These rights which we take for granted are not guaranteed in other countries and can lead to charges of blasphemy.

Feel free to explain the opposite. It's a poor premise of masculinity, if that is what you think of it.

That is hardly academic. Rather it is tied to a generation that misunderstands the basis of gender as a whole.

Comedy is the last bastion for free speech. Our constitution's first amendment protects free speech regardless of how sensitive your feelings are or how much it has triggered your fabricated anxiety issue.

You are being toxic.

How is the combination of adjective plus noun going to get you an unbiased study? Toxic anything creates bias before the research on anything has begun.

Agreed. Your down votes and my down votes are toxic celibacy from those who no longer know how to go out and speak to women in person. Their lives are lived mostly on their phones.

If we are going to broadly add buzzword adjectives to one gender, we should add them to all genders, equally: toxic femininity.
