I love how social media users are the scum of the earth until they agree with us, and then they're a shining example of the kind of people we should all strive to be, just because we can't articulate our own opinions

Some background - the reason they received zero viewers was because they were protesting against the channel, because one of it's presenters took the knee during a program.

Boycotting Weatherspoon's news because the Galahads don't like how a presenter used their free speech is known as woke cancel culture if I'm not mistaken.

Hopefully the cognitive dissonance is helping reveal that it's not actually about cancel culture or wokeness at all, it's merely a shield to insulate bigots as they smear human decency.

They didn’t complain - they boycotted the channel, and then the channel panicked and said his actions were “unacceptable”. Cancel culture PC gone merrrrrd.
