I hope they didnā€™t pay one single dime to a trademark squatter. Those people should be in Guantanamo.

When I worked at a Southern Baptist church, we bought a bunch of video equipment from a brand called Blackmagic Design. Some olds at the church raised holy hell when they found out that our weekly TV broadcast was literally powered by Blackmagic.

I really like the Rockers idea. Oh well.

You clearly donā€™t understand the original cancel culture movement.

The actual movement has to do wlth making people address the wrongs theyā€™ve done/face the shit peiple have created or caused.

I didnā€™t know the ā€œmovementā€ had an origin story. There is so much I donā€™t understand.

Me, too.

From the accompanying articleā€¦

ā€œBauerā€™s career is in jeopardy, and his stay with the Dodgers could be over, the sexual-assault allegations having turned a pitcher in his prime into a pariah in his own clubhouse, where no teammate has spoken publicly about him or come to his defense. Two people with knowledge of Dodgers clubhouse dynamics, who are unauthorized to speak publicly about the situation, said that a majority of players do not want Bauer back under any circumstances.ā€
