It's funny how that argument would've been passable in 1987, but in 2024 they would immediately be cancelled.

[-] Dkarma@lemmy.world 12 points 4 months ago

As it should be. Deplorable things deserve to be cancelled. That's why we have laws.

[-] abbadon420@lemm.ee 3 points 4 months ago

Yes but laws don't matter much if the public opinion isn't there as well. Public opinion is there now, but aparantly it used to be different in 1987

[-] Please_Do_Not@lemm.ee 5 points 4 months ago

Yes, exactly. I think that's what the post is highlighting...

[-] NeptuneOrbit@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Is it funny?

[-] abbadon420@lemm.ee 5 points 4 months ago

Yes, I'm not wordsmith so "funny" will have to suffice.

Depends on the definition intended, but other adjectives could probably describe it better.
