Maybe somebody will post a link "over there", although I'm
not sure which thread is most appropriate. I don't see one
titled "Epic Stupidity". There was one for Cancel Culture,
but it's closed.

Too much potential volatility for The Lounge.

And, yeah... replying to myself.

Here's a HINT:

“This really bothered me, that it had two narratives,” says Hamill, who
has lived in Medford since earning a PhD in theatre history from Tufts.
“I started digging.”

And do you know what "digging" does? It results in mind-numbing idiocy,
that's what it does. Mind-numbing idiocy, jaw-dropping lunacy, and
face-palming disgust. And it comes home to roost right here in Monroe
County. How PROUD we must feel! I know I just want to go outside to
strut and preen.

Hi Bear

‘I can’t pretend to know what you’re talking about.

 

[FranC]

Hi, Bear

 

[SilverBear]

Hi Bear

‘I can’t pretend to know what you’re talking about.

I find it hard to believe that (apparently) NONE of the major
national news outlets has latched onto it overnight. MAYBE
they do not even DARE to.

OK, I found the reference.

So it's got you upset that this barely-do-well manged to get a local-legend status, albeit controversial? Or is it bothering you that she bothered digging and "ruined" the local legend?

Did you find out what happened locally (for me) yesterday as
a result? Include "Brighton" in your search.

All I found so far was this:
Jingle Bells: The Untold History

But OK, I'll bite. Sleuthing, please stand by. One moment please.

 

[AttyPops]

Oh! I found it!

The overly-politically-correct BANNING of the song, due to <obvious reasons> of author's historical character.
This is why discussion is controversial and why it belongs "out there".

I get it.

Does seem to be an over-reaction. BUT...give it time and it will settle down.

 

[SilverBear]

... it will settle down.

And there's the problem. It will "settle down" as an ACCEPTABLE
response and decision.

No. No, it is not.

At some point, "enough" becomes "ENOUGH".

Everything can be bested. It makes me cringe at what comes along
next to out-do this.

 

[AttyPops]

Seen the "explanation"?
