Leftists have been raging on social media in response to comedian Dave Chappelle receiving an Emmy nomination for his Netflix stand-up special The Closer.
On Tuesday, despite months of intimidation from far-left LGBTQ activists, the Emmys gave Dave Chappelle’s The Closer not one but two nominations in the categories of outstanding pre-recorded variety special and direction of a variety special.
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.
The lynch mobs of the new Woke KKK.
The Atlanta Journal Constitution reported that a sign designating a building as the Clarence Thomas Center for Historic Preservation had been removed. The Savannah College of Art and Design has issued no official statement, but the paper cited a petition started by Griffin Hansen, a Bernie Sanders supporter who had once attended the school.
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).
Crosby, Stills & Nash have ended the protest they began against Spotify five months ago over the streaming service’s deal with podcast king Joe Rogan.

‘Shame on those responsible’: Float in Sundre, Alta. rodeo parade called out as racist
I see representations of Trudeau and Singh on a manure spreader labeled The Liberal. That’s not racist. That’s an accurate depiction of the LPC.
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.
‘New Day’? Renaming of Canada Day events in Winnipeg sparks controversy
“We are reimagining a Canada Day, a new day, that includes a reflective, inclusive and fun day for everyone to come together,” says an events notice on The Forks’ website.
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.
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.’

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.
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.
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.
A UK art professor whose livelihood was thrust into doubt after she lost her accreditation following innocent remarks about Meghan Markle is fighting back, taking legal action claiming a breach of contract by a national arts organization.
Dr. Anne Anderson who is an honorary professor at the esteemed Exeter University was thrust into a living hell after she made comments about the Duchess of Sussex prior to a Zoom lecture on IKEA furniture last year during small-talk about Markle and her emasculated husband Prince Harry’s interview with Oprah Winfrey, words that would be used to smear her as a racist and cut off a major source of her income.
