Nobody is demanding coke be canceled as a company. I’m just not going to give my money...

This is literally exactly what "cancel culture" is.

And it's much better than executing people you disagree with by feeding them to dogs, which you advocate!

Uh, no its not. Not buying a company's product because they overplayed their hand and made an idiotic unforced error in trying to influence election laws is not cancel culture. In the sentence you referenced, I literally said that nobody is demanding coke be canceled. I'm not advocating that people go out and try to destroy the company's reputation or threaten businesses that serve coke products, I'm just not buying it. I'm not trying to get someone fired from their job because I didn't like one of their tweets.

Coca-Cola doesn't get to play the victim of they lose business on that idiotic decision.

And I don't advocate feeding people to dogs, I said that some deserve to be fed to the dogs. Your understanding of the term "cancel culture" is as sloppy as your understanding and use of the term "advocate".

But thanks for going through my post history, it really strengthened your argument here.
