Terrorism works…
Edit: I evidentially had a colossal brain fart reading this article. This is what I get for trying to absorb media before my morning coffee. Original comments stands as a testament to how instant emotional responses are never the way:
I dare say they’re not campaigning that hard if they’re just giving in to the racists.
If you care strongly enough, you should always be willing to put your body in the way. Stand for what is right, even if you stand alone.
Did you read the article? To hold an event, you need a place for the event to take place in. The venues were the ones who cancelled, not the campaigner.
The funny part is I did. This was one of the first things I read this morning after a late night last night and my mind got fixated on the idea that they had cancelled it and not the venue.
My brain should have clicked on earlier as I was reading about the other cancellations mentioned in the article and didn’t put two and two together.
My comment was an emotionally driven response without much thought and it’s actually pretty fucking embarrassing.
Thank you for giving me the kick up the arse to read it again after my morning coffee 😂 I usually take more time to sit and absorb things I read before putting my thoughts into words - this one slipped through the cracks it seems.
I won’t delete the comment, as I much prefer when people’s stupidity is laid out for everyone to see, even if it is my own.
Well said, keyboard warrior.
