If a person donates to a candidate who, for example, supports the murder of unborn children, that rightfully warrants cancellation.I haven't seen anybody condone harassment or death threats, so please don't act like I have either.
A person has a right to free speech, a right to their beliefs, and a right to donate to political candidates (within the confines of election finance law). However, a person's political contributions are not free from condemnation and consequences.
- If a person donates to a candidate who, for example, forcibly ripped families apart at the border for no reason other than to use fear to deter immigration, that rightfully warrants cancellation.
- If a person donates to a candidate who, for example, did everything in their power to unnecessarily attack LGBT people (including dozens of executive actions and numerous judicial appointments), that rightfully warrants cancellation.
- If a person donates to a candidate who, for example, regularly says racist things and promotes racist policies, that rightfully warrants cancellation.
- If a person donates to a candidate who, for example, starts lying about imaginary election fraud before the election even takes place in order to undermine democracy and do anything else it takes to steal the election, that rightfully warrants cancellation.
Oh darn, that set of axioms leaves me with pretty much no one to vote for, Democrat or Republican. Guess I'd better get started on canceling everyone.
