"Cancel Culture"

[Corvid]

Perhaps I'm a bit late on this, but I keep seeing it so I'll assume it's still relevant:

"Cancel culture" is an anti-concept. There is nothing intrinsically wrong with shunning people for offensive speech. It is absolutely normal to shut out speech that is inappropriate for your children, or to refuse to listen to that person, or perhaps even to ostracize them from society. Every single moral system, every moral belief, has a corresponding enforcement mechanism of ostracizing offensive individuals so that they stop or are booted out of the network.

What *is* the matter with "cancel culture", is that it is specifically the enforcement mechanism for the system of morality which centers around gays-and-blacks worship. Conservatards do not realize this, and instead think that the issue is a moral enforcement mechanism at all, rather than the content of what is being enforced. Big-brained pundits, in all their glory, make the apt comparison to Puritans, as if the altar of Niggerfaggot and the altar of God are really comparable except in the superficial way that Puritans and Niggerfaggots both take their worldview seriously.

Now, of course it is true that there may be witch hunts, and there is a degree to which free speech is desirable. We should not make a habit of cutting off polite disagreement, or attacking our family members at the dinner table for their views. What we should do is "cancel" every niggerfaggot communist and use state/epistemic power to make them despised, disenfranchised, or otherwise irrelevant.

In a similar vein, Critical Race Theory is another strawman that allows magagroids to oppose the institutional anti-white policy that they object to, but not really oppose it. Without positively identifying the injustice on a racial level, you're literally not doing anything. You're not actually introducing political opposition to the constitutional crime that is being committed. There's no purpose whatsoever to 'banning CRT.' You have to bring to the table the civil-rights proposition that whites are not to be made to feel inferior or abused in public school curricula. It blows my mind how cowardly conservatives are, how they'll skate around the issue every time, and they are so in every era and place. They're constitutionally incapable of doing the right thing, of trying to seize state power and shape society how they want it to be. It's as if 'conservatism' is a peculiar trait of human nature.

Moldbug wrote a good piece on this. These goblins love hiding in the cracks and crevices created by laws and regulations to the point they larp as rebels when they rule the world. They will happily let whitey rethuglican have a seat at the lawmaking surface power table so that they can keep up the subversion counterpunch game they're suited to. If this fight were conceded they'd find themselves spiritually thrown. The last thing they want is their feelings on race to be written in the letter of the law.

CRT is the cape, the matador is either civil rights or the american government, however you prefer to look at it.

Another component to this is that conservatives don't have good explanations for racial differences in outcomes. If we accept as true the premise that there are no genetic differences between the races then it falls entirely on environmental circumstances, and progressives therefore deduce the (non-existent) preferential outcomes for whites and Asians that make up their systemic racism theory. Conservatives will never affirm a biased status quo, but neither will they affirm racial differences, leaving poor explanations like "it's their culture" or "welfare ruined the black family".

It's fascinating to watch these people go around quite openly talking about the "thugs" and never make anything of it. These folks are brainwashed by the "conservative black pastor" archetype that goes on FOX News and rambles about the moral degradation of the negro race. If only the schools were funded, if only they had more money for them programs, if only there were Bible study clubs... when Trump says "blacks built this country" I realize that the best is yet to come.
