Good grief. A celebrity poked the bear repeatedly and then played the victim once it took offense. It’s hardly the downfall of our country.
If it's bothering you that much maybe you should reevaluate the sources of information that are causing the issue. You clearly have been convinced to be upset about something and are modifying behaviors because of it. Removing things that cause negative emotions from your day to day life can be incredibly freeing.
Backlash for controversial statements someone has made goes back forever so the idea that it's a new issue in the last year or "ruining our country" is misguided. Here is an example from 2003 that I remember quite well:

and then played the victim
Comparing anything going on inside the US to the persecution of the Jews in Nazi Germany is a non-starter. It is an intentionally inflammatory comparison and either displays ignorance or complete disregard for what happened in the past. Considering she refused to apologize, we have to put it in the latter.However, the fact remains, that Disney fired Gina Carano because she tweeted an honest statement. With todays's cancel culture, truth is forbidden if it goes against a certain narrative, lies are allowed if it follows the narrative.
Starport, I should not have started this thread. WDWinfo has N/A'd the thread, whatever that means. I am upset about cancel culture, perhaps many of you don't know what it is, perhaps that is the intent of the cancel culture itself. It must be working. However, the fact remains, that Disney fired Gina Carano because she tweeted an honest statement. With todays's cancel culture, truth is forbidden if it goes against a certain narrative, lies are allowed if it follows the narrative. The only thing I remember about the Dixie Chicks, is they offended their core audience, which resulted in the loss of their fans. They were billed as a county act, they tried to go Pop, and they failed. I can't say Disney offended me, (I had never heard of Gina Carano), they disappointed me, they have fallen into the dangerous trend of punishing people for being honest. I'm done here. Good day.
Well of course he could have but where’s the drama in that?!? Omg I have too much money what do I do?? Hmmm I’m just stumped please all help me while i ignore your advice and cry about how hard this if for me and close the thread.I'm sorry, but you could have started this thread and asked your very legitimate question without once mentioning your personal feelings for "cancel culture" and the "downfall of our country."
Since the card is a chase visa, can you see about transferring the points into another chase card and therefore they wouldn't be disney points but regular points available to redeem for statement credits and or cashed out?
