Iconic music venue First Avenue caved to backlash on Thursday, canceling comedian Dave Chappelle‘s show hours before his performance was slated to start.

But… Dave has the last laugh! Chappelle takes to stage and pokes fun at ‘transgender lunatics’ after Minneapolis venue bowed to woke mob and forced him to move his sold-out show

Paris accused of hiding Voltaire statue to avoid race protests

The head of the French Academy has accused Paris city council of embracing cancel culture by hiding a statue of Voltaire after “meaningless” assertions that the Enlightenment philosopher was a racist.

Hélène Carrère d’Encausse, 93, the perpetual secretary of the academy, which is tasked with safeguarding the French language, believes the council is seeking to appease activists with ill-conceived views of the 18th-century writer, regarded as one of France’s greatest intellectuals.

Prominent Quebecers ‘alarmed’ by CRTC ruling that criticized Radio-Canada segment with ‘n word’

OTTAWA — A host of politicians, former and current Radio-Canada employees and journalism advocates are calling on the public broadcaster to fight back against a new CRTC ruling criticizing a radio segment that featured the “n word” four times.

In a radio segment on Aug. 17, 2020, Radio-Canada commentator Simon Jodoin and host Annie Desrochers spoke about a new petition calling for the firing of a Concordia University professor who created discomfort in class by reciting the title of a well-known political book by Quebecois author Pierre Vallières, “N—–s blancs d’Amérique” (White niggers of America).

VIRGINIA: Jefferson Davis Statue Destroyed by BLM Rioters Now Displayed as Left-Wing Art

Erected in 1907, Richmond’s historic statue of Jefferson Davis was destroyed in 2020 by the Black Lives Matter rioters who besieged the city; burning businesses, museums, and homes, even killing a little girl in the name of left-wing racial justice. Along with other statues and artifacts, what remains of the monument to Jefferson Davis was given by Democrat officials to the far-left Black History Museum and Cultural Center of Virginia, to be shown off as a trophy in the left’s war on White America.

The celebrations, which news reports have said will be called “New Day,” will feature “spaces for healing, with Indigenous-led music, dance, and sacred fires,” food trucks and picnic spots, “family-friendly, multicultural entertainment,” including Indigenous games, a chalk and bubble station and an oral history tour with Indigenous elders.

Stupid students want more restrictions on free speech

Students want more restrictions on free speech and safe spaces on campus compared with six years ago, a survey suggests.

It reveals that far more undergraduates want to be protected from difficult viewpoints and see certain groups or issues banned from discussion.

Universities should set out explanations of “academic norms” to new students in freshers’ week, the report from the Higher Education Policy Institute (Hepi) recommends. It also suggest that institutions should be careful not to invite too many controversial or inflammatory speakers.

While this is a UK survey I feel certain the same would hold true in North America. You have to wonder at the quality of education provided these young geniuses and whether it’s worth society’s continued investment.

Joe Rogan said that Fox News and conservative media outlets were the only ones that supported him when he faced accusations of spreading vaccine misinformation earlier this year.

‘They had my back through it,’ Rogan, 54, said. ‘It was Fox News that had my f*****g back.’

Criticize multiculturalism and become a pariah

Famous author Uwe Telkamp is cancelled for saying that most Muslim migrants are not fleeing persecution but looking for social welfare.

“I have to justify even being German, to dare to refer to Goethe. Suddenly, you are like a pariah.” This is how Uwe Tellkamp speaks at the Süddeutsche Zeitung. His is the cultural case of recent years.

Not only because in 2008 Tellkamp published the great novel “The Tower”, which sold over a million copies and describes the last years of the German Democratic Republic through the educated middle class of Dresden. It has won numerous literary awards and has been celebrated by all feuilletons and literary critics.

Ricky Gervais doesn’t punch down

Gender ideologues are the real bullies

The curse of the literal-minded strikes again. This time it’s Ricky Gervais’s new stand-up special SuperNature which has sent the congenitally humourless into conniptions. Predictably, Pink News led the charge with a report that disapprovingly quotes the most offending lines. The effect is not dissimilar to Mary Whitehouse reading aloud the contents of an erotic novel; few are likely to be aroused.

Ricky Gervais under fire for trans jokes in Netflix special: ‘I am canceling’

Controversial comic Ricky Gervais is in hot water online yet again, this time over a series of perceived anti-trans jokes featured in his just-released Netflix special “Supernature.” The “Office” creator’s name was trending on Twitter Tuesday as the LGBTQ community urges viewers to boycott the special — with some folks vowing to cancel their Netflix subscriptions.

“I love the new women,” Gervais snarks in the special, which has only been on the streaming platform for several hours as of Tuesday morning. “They’re great, aren’t they? The new ones we’ve been seeing lately. The ones with beards and c–ks. They’re as good as gold, I love them.”

My prediction – a mass shooting by an unhinged tranny.
