Boycotts are a form of financial activism that tries to either correct the ideological direction of a company or reduce their power. Cancel culture is a form of lazy Cultural Marxism. It uses shaming and pressure to punish someone, not because they caused or are causing material harm to the aggrieved but because they simply weren’t woke enough (or, in some cases, were too woke).

Cancel culture is bad.

Righteous boycotts are good.

Understanding the difference between the two is key for conservatives in order to end the former while advancing the latter.

But now we come to the dumbest move of all- by the Catholic Church.

This is action by a Catholic church, not the Catholic Church. There are many Americans that despise the Constitution. It doesn't invalidate that document. Similarly, there are many people that call themselves Catholics, even Catholic leaders, that have beliefs contrary to the Catholic faith. It does not mean the the Catholic Church now endorses their views.

Thought that Root was smarter than this. Guess not.
