Newcastle fans are the originators of it with the boycott they started.

It's another example of fashionable tails wagging unfashionable dogs .

I'd never heard of it, just had a read up, I'd say bullying or the right not to have an opinion.
Can someone get this thread deleted?

Seems to be two slightly different definitions, or strands to it. One of which is definitely bad, the other is a bit of a grey area.
Literally 'no platforming' or preventing a person from speaking at a particular event/institution, for example. Clearly a bad thing.
The other just seems to be mass online ridicule of someone for something they've said. Which is definitely fine when they're a public individual who has used their platform to say something, but has the potential to become a problem when it leads to people being doxxed.

Sounds like this place. Shop closures, bands not playing, ridicule.... Or at least Spug anyway.

I did. And still don't understand. Hence asking here. If Google is your source of all knowledge that's a problem. For you

Why not embrace culture? people are allowed opinions and we can form our opinions on them from what they say or believe in, good or bad, if you can't handle someone being different from you or being able to debate your side of an opinion the world is truly fucked. Imo.

It's the same as WOKE and Karen's for me I had never heard of it and then all of a sudden both terms were all over the news. Society really is on the fall isn't it.

Seems to be a term applied mainly when its criticism of the right though. When a Labour MP tweets something and there's a Right wing pile on, what do we call that?

and start another slagging the OP off?
Forget about political parties for one minute.
Oh and Twitter for that matter.
