The Left talks about debate and bipartisanship and working together while actively destroying anyone who disagrees. The goal is to scare people into silence. No challenge, no contest, no other side.
ICYMI: Actors in Hollywood are no longer allowed to play “other” people?
But it has gotten extreme. When Goya Foods CEO Robert Unanue praised Mr. Trump the cancel-culture decided to try and ruin him for it.
Unanue, a high-profile guy, dared to say something nice about the President. This President. He’s also done things to help the Obama Administration. According to Biz-Pac Review, “in 2012 he was contacted by then-first lady Michelle Obama about an initiative of hers to help black and Hispanic communities adopt healthier eating lifestyles.”
He went, helped, and mutual praise was shared. That was fine; this was not.
The Cancel-Culture smear-machine went into high gear. The goal, destroy him, get him fired, make a statement. But not so fast. Robert Unanue isn’t some flaky Hollywood actor or image sensitive sports figure. He made it clear he was not apologizing, and he called it our for what it was—speech suppression.
The response from the right? A lot of free earned media as an army of folks tweeted about buying Goya Foods, starting with the President.

Food pantries across the nation have already or will experience an influx of canned and dry Goya goods as folks buy it up and donate it to feed the hungry.
Over the past few days, there has been an effort to Boycott Goya, so let’s turn this into something good:
1. BUY Goya Products.
2. DONATE them to Homeless Shelters, Food banks, Senior Homes, etc.
3. POST Pictures and encourage others to do the same!#GoyaChallenge pic.twitter.com/OeE69Dgliu

One Go Fund Me effort raised over 80,000 dollars to buy Goya to feed the hungry.
In other words, the Cancel-Culture not only back-fired, Goya, and Unanue are fine, it also amped up the brand with consumers who are also making it a staple at local food banks.
All that’s left is for some ass-hat Dem to claim that was the plan all along. To make selfish one-percenters pry a few bucks from the piles of money they sleep on to feed the folks on whose backs they became wealthy.
That’s not the plan. The plan remains the same. Claim some territory (language, culture, policy) and destroy anyone who dares to challenge them there. But as a party, they’ve got more skeletons than a cemetery. So, double-down. Fight back for your right to have a different opinion. To support different ideas.
If they silence us, that will be the end of America.
You don’t want to be the generation that lost free speech, do you?
