Meghan McCain‘s at it again.
This week, John McCain’s daughter published her latest rambling op-ed in The Daily Mail and it’s all about the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine Florida’s “Don’t Say Gay” bill the GOP’s attacks on trans kids across America how perverted the Cuomo brothers are and why they really ought to be canceled.
McCain, who, for years, bemoaned cancel culture on The View, now feels that, for some people, it “remains the appropriate punishment and they deserve the life-sentence.”

How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
“Which is how we come to disgraced pig and ex-Governor of New York, Andrew Cuomo,” she writes after a long lead-up. “His snake-head resurfaced on Sunday in his first public appearance in six months.”
Cuomo met with members of God’s Battalion of Prayer Church, a Black congregation in Brooklyn, New York, which Meghan found so utterly reprehensible that she now feels the need to use her enormous platform to raise awareness to it.
“Governor Grope told the Brooklyn congregation that he is a victim of cancel culture and ‘God isn’t done with me yet’,” she writes. “He even suggested his brother Chis [sic] Cuomo was a victim of the ‘cancel-culture mob’ when he was fired from CNN.”

Now, you might be wondering why an American woman who lives in Washington, D.C. is writing such an impassioned opinion piece for a British tabloid about a former New York politician. We wish we had the answer for you.
“Go back to wherever you came from Andrew, no one wants to see your face anymore,” McCain concludes, “and take your brother Chris with you.”
Meghan shared the op-ed earlier this week on Twitter. Here’s how people responded…

Wait , are you against cancel coulture ?

When are you writing something of substance? Bring the “ activist” you say you are, how about the Don’t Say Gay law in FL? Are you afraid of upsetting Mr DeSantis?

You should do a story about how basically all of “cancel culture” is essentially just personal responsibility against public opinion. I might actually read that one.

I’m no fan of McCain but neither do I think the Cuomo brothers are worthy of our efforts. In this case, the enemy of our enemy is not our friend.

“Cancel culture” hurts when someone get attacked for stating an opinion that goes against the those of the vocal minority. If someone in power is corrupt and then weeded out, it’s not “cancel culture,” it’s just doing the right thing.

“‘Cancel culture’ hurts when someone get attacked for stating an opinion that goes against the those of the vocal minority.”
I see … kind of like how Martin Luther King (vocal minority) hurt George Wallace by attacking him for expressing popular opinion?
SamB
Cowboy: What are you talking about? That doesn’t relate to what I said at all.
Cam
The fact that the rac-ist, anti-LGBTQ troll likes Meghan McCain tells us all we need to know.
SamB
Cam: I don’t care if you troll my comments but you are out of line calling me a rac-ist. That is a disgusting thing to call people but it’s a last resort for someone like you who has nothing logical to add to a conversation.
The Accidental Polemicist
@SamB
Agreed. Unfortunately, he is not the only one.
Eternal.Cowboy
I thought my post was rather clear. The civil rights movement met your definition of “cancel culture” causing harm perfectly. It was a vocal minority that went after people with opinions that differed from theirs. According to your statement that “hurts” but for Black folks and humanity is was a huge step forward.
The reality is the idea of “cancel culture” is a myth. There are people out there that are not used to having their thoughts and opinions challenged and they mistake being questioned or criticism as harm. It’s not harm, it’s losing a place or privilege and moving to accountability.
SamB
Cowboy: Cam’s comment was this: The fact that the rac-ist, anti-LGBTQ troll likes Meghan McCain tells us all we need to know.
Read it again, slowly
Eternal.Cowboy
I read it and I think you making up a reason to through a tantrum. Maybe Cam can clarify.
Also, I can’t help but notice when it has pointed out how ridiculous your comment was that you just ran from the conversation and pretend like it didn’t happen and focus on something else. Sort of your go to move.
Have a good one and we will chat again when you make another one of your insane comments.
SamB
Cowboy: Please READ my entire statement. This is the second part: If someone in power is corrupt and then weeded out, it’s not “cancel culture,” it’s just doing the right thing.
In your MLK scenario it is doing the right thing because he was weeding out a powerful person who was corrupt.
Cam
@SamB LOL!!
Sweetie, multiple times the screename “@The Accidental Polemicist” was exposed as another one of your screenames, and you STILL just can’t resist switching screenames to come on here and try to defend your original comment.
I also love the way you claim not to care about my comments, but switch screenames and respond to me under two different names.
As always, your right wing trolling is boring and sad.
Eternal.Cowboy
“Cam: I don’t care if you troll my comments but you are out of line calling me a rac-ist. That is a disgusting thing to call people but it’s a last resort for someone like you who has nothing logical to add to a conversation”
Unless there was a comment deleted, Cam didn’t call you rac—ist he said Meghan McCain was.

Boring. Not a single one of these conservative right wingers ever has a constructive thing to say, all they know how to do is call everyone names; they’re all just juvenile, ignorant schoolyard bullies. I couldn’t even get through the article, how many times did she mention she’s John McCain’s daughter?
The Accidental Polemicist
Pot, meet kettle.
Cam
@The Accidental Polemicist
Hi @SamB
Puravidamauricio
Cancel Culture was created by Republicans when they tried to cancel Colin Kaepernick, the NFL, and Nike. Idiots.
Cam
I love how the right wingers and troll accounts are still trying that thing they were doing a few years ago, where they pretend being called rac-ist is somehow worse than them BEING rac-ists.
Bonerboy
@SamB I don’t really know what your agenda is here. Obviously most everyone on Queerty is on the liberal spectrum. You are not going to change minds. So…why? Now, you have every right to be here and express your opinion…but why do you feel the need to create separate screen names to back yourself up? (and yes, everyone here believes Cam that you do this). Why not have the courage of your convictions and just say what you want to say, argue if you must, but be honest in your posts instead of getting upset that no one agrees with you so you play this game? It’s tiresome.
Cam
You are welcome to think anybody else on here is me, except, since the majority of people on Queerty are not anti-LGBTQ, there really isn’t any reason for somebody with my opinions to create other screenames now is there?
I can identify many of @SamB’s other screenames. (Openminded, Caddy4J, The Accidental Polemicist, winemaker, GayConservMan, whateverokok, TheREALTruth, Sqwoah, succubus, Rickster62, BJ McFrisy, BarryM, James Hart, okokwhatever, nunya, inbama, BLAKENOW, CatholicXXX, MarcyMayer, TheAbsoluteTRUTH, etc..)
And if you go farther back you’ll see others. It’s been on here doing the same thing, posting the same things, boosting it’s on comments over and over. I first noticed when people could post pictures on here, and several different screenames used the same wording and posted pictures that were supposedly of the huge gay march in DC, claiming it was only a few people. The problem was, I was at the march, and knew the pics were fake. It was obvious, it’s sad, and it’s still boring.
Oh, and one way to spot some of it’s older screenames, is that once in a while, it will create a screename, try to make it seem reasonable, and even pretend to sort of take it’s other screenames to task, it also used a lot of sex reference, like BJMcFrisky….or, you know, Bonerboy.
Chrisk
Cam
I think you misinterpreted what Bonerboy was saying. He’s not saying that you have multiple names.
The BJMcFrisky name goes way back. I remember it being Bill something.
At any rate, maybe it all comes out of frustration from being one of the the very few if not only right wingers on the site. So now he needs to Astroturf.
Astroturfing..
“organized activity that is intended to create a false impression of a widespread, spontaneously arising, grassroots movement in support of or in opposition to something”
Cam
@Chrisk, well it did say “but why do you feel the need to create separate screen names to back yourself up? (and yes, everyone here believes Cam that you do this).”
Bosch
“Shut up, Meg.”
Cam
brilliant.

Looks like it rained out so Cam crawled out from his rock to see how many times he can obsess over the comments of complete strangers and send his usual hateful comments, trying to say “troll” as many times as possible.

Why is it always the same people? Cancel culture like political correctness isn’t real. It has to do with people with unpopular opinions being called out for them. It has to do with our fondness for labels. If you can label something, then you don’t have to deal with it directly. By doing this, one can combine completely unrelated matters into one group. Labels are generally subjective and untrue and just lazy thinking. People for some reason believe that they can say anything and be free from repercussions. This has never been true in this country, and shouldn’t be. Most of what is called “cancel culture” are the actions of private businesses doing what they think is most profitable.

she is obviously reacting to not being paid much attention in the bedroom by her husband. with a mouth like that who wouldn’t want to run the opposite way from her? she sucks and i wish she would just go away and raise her daughter who will by the way grow up to hate her.
