    I don't know what this means. Dixie Chicks are country artists. Most country fans I'm sure supported Bush. They didn't like what the group had to say so they stop listening and more importantly, buying.

    “Maines's remark triggered a backlash in the United States.[42] The Dixie Chicks were blacklisted by thousands of country radio stations,[43] and the band members received death threats.[44]Maines issued an apology, saying her remark had been disrespectful; in 2006 she rescinded the apology, saying she felt Bush deserved no respect.[43]

    Sounds like a cancellation effort to me. That goes beyond fans choosing not to listen to them and buy their records.

    He was forced to play in Europe. Not sure why you are trying to find some technical loophole to "win" here

    youre wrong. it went beyond not being a fan anymore. right wingers cancelled and boycotted the dixie chicks. they literally got them banned from radio stations. they were blacklisted by country music stations across the country. they staged events where they burned their records. they lost sponsors and endorsement deals.

    This is what people don't understand about protests. When you protests you take risks. This applies to Kaepernick as well.

    They protested, people didn't agree, they suffered, they lost

    Why aren't you in all the threads about conservatives crying about being "cancelled?"

    What does that matter? He was suspended and shunned and traded. And no team would sign him for years. he was cancelled. I don't know what you are trying to prove here.

    Anyone can look up and see that he did play 41 games for the Grizz, a CANADIAN team yes. You are just trying to find a way to defend this action against him.
