CEO Mike Lindell says annual sales fell $100 million after several big-box retailers cut ties following his election claims.

"It was a massive, massive cancellation," Lindell said in a phone interview Monday. "We lost $100 million from attacks by the box stores, the shopping networks, the shopping channels, all of them did cancel culture on us."

Funny how when people show them the door for being lying antidemocratic assholes, that's "cancel culture." Meanwhile the right seems quite happy to exclude people from public life, refuse services to groups they don't like, make it easy for bosses to fire employees for unionizing or speaking out, and right wing media is quite fond of cutting mics or banning people when they disagree. They are quire happy to perform their own boycotts because they hate trans people and companies that don't. For some reason they don't call any of that 'cancel culture.'

Mike, people just don't want to support you and don't want you around because you're a dangerous, disingenuous, fascism advocate. Our nation would have been better off if he had remained a crackhead and never participated in promoting and amplifying Trump's lies.

And no Democratic/left politician had to write any laws to disrupt the lying bastard. It's the capitalism they love so much.

Typical "conservative" crybabies. Love to block people from doing legal things while simultaneously crying if people exercise their free speech and don't give them money.

Speaking as one of the conservatives I love this lol. Fuck this guy and fuck his company. This isn't being "cancelled" this is just capitalism and I'm here for it.

The phrase "did cancel culture on us" is hilarious to me.

Literally how the free market is supposed to work according to small government advocates. TFW no one wants to do business with you due to making your brand toxic.
