The Destructive Everyday Cancel Culture Of Recorded Interactions | The Daily Wire
"In our increasingly digital world, the likelihood that a difficult moment in someone’s day could be broadcast for all to see is higher than ever.
A heartbreaking video recently circulated on Twitter with the caption, “A white Holiday Inn Express worker has a nervous breakdown after he got scolded by a Black customer because of a mistake in the reservation system.”
The video shows a customer speaking aggressively to an employee about a mistake the hotel chain had reportedly made, with the caption implying the employee was treating the customer different because of his race.
In the heart-wrenching footage, the employee — who it was later revealed suffered from numerous mental disorders — becomes increasingly upset, punching himself repeatedly and slamming his head into a computer, as he’s continually berated by the man filming.
“So this is the type of people they have working here?” the person behind the camera is heard saying. 
The employee leaves the room and starts crying loudly while the customer continues to film, disapprovingly saying, “Wow.”
...While the idea of people receiving consequences for their actions might be enticing, it is not for the masses to decide when someone should be punished. 
There’s no way to tell when the crowd will turn on someone, even its own members. 
No one is safe from the cancellations of a “consequence culture” unless they stay silent or repeat the acceptable sayings of that community. 
Anyone who decries such an unspoken club as a good thing in society should reconsider to whom they are giving the moral scepter...Must read all!

Mark Levin: Here's what you're not being told about Biden's 'tax the rich' plan - TheBlaze

But now, President Joe Biden's "Made in America Tax Plan" seeks to raise taxes on the "super rich" to fund his unprecedented socialist spending spree, while claiming that his plan won't touch you, the average American. On a recent episode of "LevinTV, " BlazeTV host and author of "American Marxism" Mark Levin said Biden's new tax plan is really a "Marxist magic trick," and the target of this trick is you and everything you've worked for.

Portland BLM/Antifa Draw Guns on Drivers to Enforce No-Go Zone in Broad Daylight
"Portland’s revolutionaries from Black Lives Matter and antifa took over a busy street at noon on Wednesday and pulled guns on drivers who dared try to dart past the mob. 
...A driver was reportedly beaten and held against his will, another had his back window destroyed and shots of some sort were fired by the AK-47- and AR-15-wielding terrorists. 
Multiple sharp sounds were heard followed by the sound of whooshing air after the militants flattened the tires of a car the gun-wielding crowd had forced to stop. 
The man was “aided” to the sidewalk, as a live-streamer put it (see the video below).

BECAUSE WE’RE PAYING THEM GENEROUSLY NOT TO WORK

BECAUSE WE’RE PAYING THEM GENEROUSLY NOT TO WORK, AND FOR AN EXTENDED TIME. NEXT QUESTION? The Jobs are There So Why Aren’t People Going Back to Work?

UPDATE (FROM GLENN): Even at the NYT, this is a high-rated comment:

“Maybe paying people more to be unemployed than to work has consequences? I’ve been out to eat with 2 waiters working an entire establishment. No one wants to work now. Same thing with Lyft and gig work. Bring back proof of looking for employment and curtail unemployment benefits when we have this many job openings. Helicopter money is temporary, not permanent.”--Posted by

WATCH: Ron DeSantis bashes CDC over school and cruise policies: 'That's not science, that's politics' - TheBlaze

During a news conference in Satellite Beach, Florida, DeSantis slammed the CDC for carrying water for school unions. "If you look at some of the stuff that they've done on school openings, where they're basically doing the teacher's union's bidding, when they say these kids should be masked in summer camp outdoors," he said, the Daily Wire reported. "I'm sorry, that's not science, that's politics." Earlier this week, a report surfaced claiming that a powerful school union lobbied the CDC to delay the return of in-person learning.
