Progressive’s Cancel Culture Is Guilty Of Corrupting Minds

The purpose of the Society’s Building Blocks blog is “Critically Thinking About Things That Change Society” and it’s been a rather depressing task in the 21st century to witness all the absurdities coming to the forefront of our society that are destroying our culture and the core foundations of our country.

As many of you know, I’ve been outspoken about my the 21st century version of cancel culture and how it is destroying our society. If you’re not familiar with what I’ve written on Society’s Building Blocks about this you can get caught up by clicking on THIS LINK. If you don’t have time, here’s my opinion in a nutshell…

Cancel culture is a malignant cancer infecting our society, it takes otherwise moderately minded people and turns them into anti-American cancel culture fools that will do anything to destroy what they oppose.

Over on Ethics Alarms, a regular commenter named Humble Talent, who has his own blog called Humble Musings, (both blogs are interesting reads) posted the following profoundly accurate statement about cancel culture…

“…at the end of the day, they’ll be able to sit proudly on their throne of ash, having “dismantled” yet another institution without a plan going forward, one of the better tools in our arsenal will just be gone, and they’ll move on to the next project with a tragic lack of self awareness.”

Which inspired me to expand that into a more generic and more complete statement…

“At the end of the day, progressive cancel culture activists (better known as regressive totalitarians) requiring their usual hive-minded complete subservience, will sit proudly on their throne of ash having destroyed their impure target, and anyone or anything that supported the target, for not having the correct ideologically approved opinion(s) and then, without using a shred of common sense, critical thinking or logic, they move on to their next impure target with a tragic lack of self awareness.”

Can you imagine the horror of being confronted with someone in the United States of America, the land of free speech, that has a different opinion than you do, THE HORROR!

The new 21^st century’s progressive psychological snowflakes seem to be under some kind of self-entitled delusion that any opinion that differs from their own is EVIL and must be destroyed, this is the core of the 21^st century’s cancel culture & woke brigade of absurdly snowflaking imbeciles. I was involved in the justice system’s legal aftermath of a perfect example that shows me that this kind of progressive cancel culture is guilty of corrupting minds.

Recently I was on a jury in a criminal trial. As the details of this alleged crime were revealed in court it could easily be turned into a Cancel Culture For Dummies guide book. I don’t want people using my blog as a guide book for such morally bankrupt activities so I’ll limit the details I share.

Here’s what happened from my point of view.

This was the first time I have been called for jury duty and therefore it was my first time to ever serve on a jury in a criminal trial. On top of the job of being a juror, it was an educational experience. The whole process is much like what you see on TV and in the movies with subtle differences, one being how dreadfully boring it is.

After the the jury was chosen, the jury was given all the appropriate instructions before the trial began so we had a reasonable idea of how the court proceedings would take place and what our responsibility were. A couple of key instructions were that we should always keep in mind that the defendant in this case is considered innocent until proven guilty, we were not to have any discussions about the trial outside of the courtroom, and we were forbidden to do any research on our own regarding anything related to the trial.

Going into this I knew very little about criminal trials except that I fully expected the following method of instruction that I learned as an Army Instructor to be followed by both the prosecution and the defense…

1. Tell them what you’re going to tell them.
2. Tell them.
3. Tell them what you told them.

The alleged crime in this trial was the Class I felony of Stalking under 940.32 of the Wisconsin State statute.

The first part is where you “tell them what you’re going to tell them”
a.k.a. the opening statements from the prosecution and defense

Prosecution Opening Arguments: We got a pretty detailed but relatively brief description of what we would see and hear from the prosecution. He told us that he would present evidence that proved beyond any doubt that the defendant engaged in stalking as defined by Wisconsin law. The prosecutor also mentioned that this was not the first time that the defendant had engaged in this kind of behavior.

Defense Opening Arguments: We got what sounded like the core of the defense’s argument which appeared not to deny that the stalking took place but that there was plausible deniability that the defendant was the one that did the stalking. So the core argument was, the prosecution is going to present you with evidence but none of that can be directly attributed to the defendant. Then the defense went on to imply that there might be something else that explains the behavior of the defendant other than felony stalking. From the things he said and the way he said them, I got the impression that some kind of medical or psychological defense was going to be presented. I thought it was interesting how other things that the defense attorney said were very much inline with the questions he had posed in the pretrial jury selection, which had very strong implications that “it’s understandable behavior from an x” because x’s get emotionally upset and that can be exacerbated when they are under stress because of a “condition” and then there was a direct implication that “everyone gets upset when relationships fail” which really rang my unethical Golden Rationalization bell loud and clear.

Next came second part where you “Tell them”
a.k.a. witness testimony and cross-examination

The prosecution presented witness after witness for a day and a half that provided details of observed behaviors and statements that were directly attributed to the defendant. Before the cancel culture stalking started, the defendant actually stated in front of police and security guards (who personally testified) that she was going to ruin her x-boyfriend’s life as she was trying to physically break the victims truck windows with the x-boyfriend inside. There were piles and piles of documents entered into evidence that proved beyond any doubt that cyber stalking had in fact taken place. Within those piles of evidence, there were documents clearly showing that the defendant was a direct part of this cyber stalking scheme to destroy the x-boyfriend, in fact the defendant initiated the scheme and actively took part in the scheme.

It was revealed with testimony and documents entered into evidence that the defendant had been issued a very stern stalking “Cease and Desist” warning letter from a local police department (the defendant lived in a different community) but it didn’t change her behavior, in fact it escalated, the defendant was contacting the police department with hundreds and hundreds of emails and phone calls harassing them, it was so bad that the police department blocked her email address, her I.P. Address, and her phone number; remember, she lived in a different community outside their jurisdiction. The stalking continued unabated so the x-boyfriend requested and got a legal “Do Not Contact” restraining order from the court and that restraining order included no contact with him, members of his family, his attorney, his children’s schools & teachers, his children’s after school daycare, and the his local police department. After the restraining order was issued all the stalking that was directly attributable to the defendant and her mobile phone stopped and the dirty work of cyber stalking, including the defendants previous pattern of spoofing phone numbers, was supposedly taken up immediately by the defendants fifteen year old teenage son using multiple mobile phones some of which appeared to be burner phones. The number of cyber stalking messages rapidly increased and touched every part of the x-boyfriend’s life. The content of the messages started to slide down a morally bankrupt slippery slope into a hole of very intentional defamation, transparent lies, and very explicit language detailing sexual abuse of children, white supremacy, and racism. Everything in the messages were unsupportable lies and the messages were being sent to every corner of the x-boyfriend’s life. The very intentional defamation attacks, unsupportable false accusations, branched out to other people and the cyber stalker began to cyber stalk the x-boyfriend’s sister, her business, the x-boyfriend’s attorney and his attorney’s business trying to destroy them too. The x-boyfriend’s life, and some around him, was starting to slowly unravel. The x-boyfriend was losing business, his x-wife took him back to family court to get the previous 50/50 visitation with his children drastically reduced due to the unresolved child sexual abuse accusations, he was in constant fear of being arrested and thrown in jail because of all the constant messages accusing him of child sexual abuse to everyone around him including the local police department, who did interviewed him, his reputation was actively being destroyed from every angle and there was nothing he could do to stop it, the train was roaring down the tracks and the light at the end of the tunnel was an oncoming train! Everything in his world was being ripped apart, he was having a really hard time sleeping, he had lost a lot of weight, his business was suffering, and his sister’s business was suffering as a direct result of the false accusations against her; there was lots of fear.

It was very clear to me from testimony and the screen shots of messages that there were details included in the messages that the defendants son wouldn’t have known but his mother, the defendant, would certainly have known. It was very clear to me that if the defendant wasn’t doing this herself, she was actively directing and coaching her son what to do. There were even spoofed phone number stalking messages that were traced back to a phone that the son never had access to, in fact the phone belonged to a home bound client that the defendant, a Registered Nurse, was providing in-home nursing care to. The direct evidence and circumstantial evidence that was presented in court was over whelming. There could be absolutely no doubt in anyone’s mind that stalking had taken place and the defense never once challenge that the stalking had actually taken place.

You’d think that was enough, but there’s more. The defendant had a previous husband and when she got pissed off at him about money problems she did the exact same thing to that husband and cyber stalked him with false accusations and tried to destroy his life. Unfortunately in that case she was marginally successful before the court got involved. The false accusations launched in the cyber stalking in that case included accusations of sexual abuse of her son. All the turmoil in the husband’s life made him a soldier that was deemed an unsuitable candidate for the elite unit he wanted to join, yes the Army does have standards and some elite units don’t want to have to deal with a soldier that has a belligerent and accusatory x-wife that could possibly interfere with the soldier being successful in their mission. In that case, the x-husband also had to resort to a legal restraining order to get his soon-to-be x-wife to stop contacting his commander, Non-Commissioned Officer In Charge (NCOIC) and even his very sick father at all hours of the day and night with false accusation filled messages. His asperations for his chosen military career was destroyed, he’s now out of the military and drives an Uber. The x-husband and his father both testified in court and the details showed a very similar pattern of spoofed phone numbers and very disturbing graphic detailed messages filled with false accusations of child sexual abuse. That marriage lasted a whole six months, it was years ago, and that x-husband is still paying the price from all the cyber stalking.

The last witness that the prosecution called was the defendants son. The son admitted to his direct involvement in the cyber stalking and he dutifully protected his mother claiming that she had nothing to do with it. The son had already been through the court system for his part in the stalking scheme, he had already done his community service, he admitted that he stalked, he admitted that all the child abuse accusations were false, and his record would be wiped clean when he turns eighteen so he had nothing to loose by lying in court to protect his mother. The son was not believable. It was very clear to me that the son was thoroughly coached. It was also clear to me that the son was pressured into taking responsibility for everything that was done to protect his mother from going to prison and this became VERY obvious to me when he took complete responsibility for things that were 100% verifiably done by his mother, the defendant, and there was testimony and physical evidence to prove it was done by his mother. In my opinion, the son openly lied under oath. The son has a very twisted set of morals and terrible parental examples, it’s likely that he doesn’t know right from wrong. His father is a registered sex offender who spent time in prison and his mother used him in an immoral attempt to destroy her x-boyfriend and convinced him to take responsibility for the whole scheme because it will all be wiped off his record when he turns eighteen.

What the prosecution presented was very damning. The trail of stalking abuse was well documented and a historical pattern of stalking was proven.

During all this damning testimony presented by the prosecution the defense only cross examined once in a while to get plausible deniability statements from witnesses into the record. It was very clear that the defense attorney was trying to push for some kind of plausible deniability reasonable doubt.

The defense didn’t call any witnesses.

Next came the jury instructions: The instructions were long winded, very thorough, and very easy to understand.

Next came the third part where you “tell them what you told them”
a.k.a. the closing arguments

The closing arguments were much like the opening arguments with the exception of the strong implications from both the prosecutor and the defense attorney that “I told you so”.

Next came deliberations:
The jury was given a copy of the law to review in our deliberations. We had a reasonably diverse jury that would likely make DEI advocates proud. After choosing a Jury foreman, our first unanimous choice was to start off by completely ignoring any evidence and testimony that could be attributed to the defendant’s son and see if there was enough directly attributable evidence to convict the defendant. We could always look at other evidence later if we needed to. We requested the specific pieces of evidence to review from the court that were 100% attributable to the defendant. After open discussion on the evidence we reviewed we easily found enough evidence based on Wisconsin Law to convict the defendant. We didn’t even need the stacks and stacks of extremely damning circumstantial evidence that was presented. Deliberations went very smooth and everyone was very respectful of others opinions.

Delivering the verdict:
The verdict was guilty. We came to that unanimous decision and delivered it to the court in two hours and nine minutes.

After the trial was over I learned that there were two additional cyber stalking cases where the defendant tried to destroy someone else’s life that were not allowed in court as evidence, these other two cases didn’t include the accusations of sexual abuse to her son so they weren’t allowed. That’s four instances where this woman tried to destroy someone’s life by means of cyber stalking because they angered her in some way.

Rhetorical Question: I wonder where this self entitled individual would get the idea that she could get away with cyber stalking others to destroy their lives and where could she learn such morally bankrupt things?

This cancel culture that we’ve seen and heard about that’s being used across the USA to destroy people, institutions, things, and being used to intimidate others into ideological submission has thoroughly corrupted the minds of people. This case is a great example of how this cancel culture nonsense makes people think they can fabricate immoral lies and get away with cyber stalking others to destroy their lives. This evil, abusive, immoral liar, and poor example of a entitled mother who tried to use her race, use her son, use the digital world that connects us, and used a pile of lies to destroy the lives of everyone in her x-boyfriend’s life. I’m sure you can easily guess what race the defendant and the boyfriend are. I’m going to guess that this convicted felon (not yet sentenced) who has shown a repetitive pattern of similarly abusive illegal behaviors over the years won’t learn anything positive from this.

I’m waiting to see if she tries to appeal the verdict.

In the end; there are at least three lives that have been severely damaged by this immoral woman’s stalking, there are at least ten lives directly and negatively affected by this immoral woman’s stalking and there are dozens of lives that are indirectly affected by this immoral woman’s stalking. Her lies and stalking actions even destroyed her own life. She has earned time behind bars and I hope she is sentenced to many years. It’s really clear to me that there are multiple people involved in this case that could file civil defamation suits against this woman and they’d easily win but it would be almost futile because even if they won their civil suit she doesn’t have anything.

[ADDED: 8/22/2024] Today looked up the defendant in the court system, she has a long history and there’s more to come for this defendant, it appears to me that she has absolutely no respect for the law.

Moral of the story: Progressives 21st century cancel culture tactical sword put into practice can and does have devastating physical, psychological, monetary, and moral consequences to those directly targeted, it also has unintended negative morality effects and very possible legal and physical consequences to the ones wielding the swords.

Life is all about making choices…
