    Yeah, there was a time in the past when these threats were 99% bluffs, but now they seem to be real legitimate threats, when they say they want to cancel you they absolutely mean it and they will if they can, anyone they hate they will try to cancel, they will go after anyone who questions their Authority who questions the narrative who questions anything that makes them look bad, these people are terrible people, there's no better way of saying it, gone are the days when people could just say things on the internet, problem is these days are so many Psychopaths out there that really will devout their life on a stupid ass ideology, and they are willing to die for which is incredibly sad, like if someone told me this was going to happen 20 years ago, I would laugh at their face because people aren't usually like this, unless they're a knife-wielding Maniac or they were in prison for a while, then I would believe it right away, but these people on the internet we'll have this communist subversive thought process, these people absolutely mean what they say and they do and follow suit with what they say.
