She takes out her enemies in increasingly sadistic fashion as bisexual assassin Villanelle in Killing Eve. Now, however, actress Jodie Comer has found herself the victim after hundreds of social media users called for her to be 'cancelled' – the modern equivalent of being chased with burning torches. The Bafta-winner's apparent crime is that she is said to be dating an American supporter of Donald Trump's Republican party – despite playing a bisexual character in the hit BBC drama.

I think we've seen this war between the Bloods and Crips before.

I'm not sure the analogy translates to their political affiliation.....

Surely there is a Rudyard Kipling poem or verse from Proverbs that covers this.

What are these new words and phrases in their twisted applications from the Left, like “cancelling” and “woke”?

If—
By Rudyard Kipling

(‘Brother Square-Toes’—Rewards and Fairies)

If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies,
Or being hated, don’t give way to hating,
And yet don’t look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dream—and not make dreams your master;
If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build ’em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: ‘Hold on!’

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings—nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds’ worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it,
And—which is more—you’ll be a Man, my son!

Can't really tell if the male is the same in both pictures, but I guess it could be. 8>)

Can we just shut Twitter down?

Let’s see what the Left in the Entertainment Biz do, now that the mob is coming for THEM.

It sure would have made trump’s life easier. I know he wants to talk to us directly but I am not sure this was the best way. Any how Twitter isn’t going anywhere soon.

I'm surprised she hadn't been cancelled before for acting in a movie titled The White Princess

[BamaBelle]

She is my favorite actress. I first saw her in “Thirteen” and have watched almost everything of hers since. Loved “Dr. Foster”. She is an awesome actress!
