Conservative columnist Matt Lewis harshly objected to MAGA fans raising the temperature in the culture wars.  “The impulse to cancel some voices this past week is understandable,” Lewis cautioned, “now, in an amazing turn of events, conservatives are now aping the progressive scolds and speech cops, only with red hats.”

 

The conservative columnist singled out Vice President JD Vance, embattled Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and publicity-hungry Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) as the biggest offenders.

Pointing to Vance telling Americans, “When you see someone celebrating Charlie’s murder, call them out. And hell, call their employer,” Lewis asked, “Which raises the question, what if their employer is the government? That would be awkward. But no problem!

 

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is reportedly telling staff to track down soldiers guilty of wrong speak. Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) is trying to get teachers terminated, tweeting: ‘We don’t fund hate. We fire it‘ — which feels like the sort of slogan Mao might have had printed on a T-shirt.”

 

'Their version is worse': Conservative mocks 'woke right' culture crusade

 

“Let’s be clear — opposition to cancel culture is merely the latest principle that Trump-era Republicans have conveniently abandoned. Indeed, almost every tenet that conservatives held dear a decade ago has been reversed,” Lewis wrote, “They’ve finally realized that this is their cancel culture now.”

 

Gotta give the MAGAverse credit for one thing; they have always been incredibly consistent in their hypocrisy!👍
