You think it’s bad now with the ‘cancel culture.’ Wait until they completely corrupt AI, which they are fast about doing, programming in their biases and canceling truth in all the AI platforms. It’s happening right now as we speak. Future AI analysis of data and work product will be tilted ‘subtly’ only one way - - in favor of wokism. That’s why I am so critical of AI.

He did this knowing what the reaction would be. I’m waiting for his next move.

“In 1997, Adams received the National Cartoonists Society Reuben Award, its highest honor.”

Was that award named after Paul Ruebens of Peewee Herman fame? ;-)

“My office invited a black intern from The Bahamas.”

We’ve spent time in the Bahamas and have friends there, many are mixed race, they range from black as night to white in appearance. They are fantastic, sweet and accepting people and I love them. We’re going there next spring for bonefish and permit fishing, we have a fishing guide friend there.

“Newspapers pulled Adams’s ‘Dilbert’ comics ...”

The most ridiculous statement in the article. Multiple publications behaving as though they are a single entity.

Adams has the best daily cast on YouTube and Locals. 10:00AM Eastern. He said he was going to be cancelled, but the explanation in the article leaves out the context (as usual).

Best hour of the day...I can't miss it.

He's an expert in explaining persuasion and logical thinking.

His books are great, too.

People read USAToday?

I don't think the reading public of USAToday can actually read.

If you’re not in lock-step with the Left then you’re not ‘diverse’ enough for them. They exclude you in the interest of inclusiveness.

Adams just got many more of the New Nazis to Self-Identify.

Thanks Scott, Welcome Aboard.

“Based on the current way things are going, the best advice I would give to white people is to get the hell away from black people.”

Based upon what I hear from the wokesters and blacks, day in and day out, WOULDN’T THEY WELCOME THIS? Whites are evil, whites are racist, whites are haters. Sounds like just what they would want at this point…

It’s fine to have individual friends, but if you’re out and about and you see a grouping, get outta there.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I was traveling this week and stayed at a hotel a few nights. The other morning at the breakfast room off to the side of the hotel lobby, a mother waddled in with a boy who looked to be about 3. The boy was quiet and showing some excellent behavior but not good enough for the mom who at one point shouted out loud enough to make my ears hurt...”you get ovah here right now or I’ll beat the sh!t outta ya!”

Talk about heart breaking.... Who talks like that to a 3 year old? What kind of person would remotely consider uttering that kind of language and exhibiting that kind of behavior in a public space let alone in private? What lessons are being learned by that 3 year old and what behavioral patterns are being set into motion and what will he be like by the time he gets to be a teenager? I regret I didn’t say something but the first thought I had was that anything I say would quickly escalate into something that was far worse. What to do, what to do.... pray for that boy and his mom.

Thanks for the reminder on Derbyshire. I was racking my brain trying to remember that. BTW, the Derb was right then & Adams is even more right now.

I use newspapers to start fires in my wood burning stove and no other reason.

I’m sorry, but being white today means shut up, step aside, hand over your stuff and take your ass beating. Now put your meat suit on and walk through bear country.

Probably the newspapers canceling are all owned by the media companies.

Well, that IS a pretty radical thing to say…in public.

But, nonetheless, I’ve long tired of this faux “tolerance” (really celebration) of various groups, and wish people would just be allowed to think or say what they wish. It’s up to us if we like it or not, but most of such statements shouldn’t be means to fire someone, much less jail them.

The commie way in America is to try to use our traditional systems of fairness and justice against itself. We cannot yet jail them, but let’s make them such pariahs they cannot make a living and will actually be forced to be “homeless”…which is kind of funny since that’s another grouping commies love.
