The only logic I can come up with as to why cancel culture is so prevalent today and why so many progs are advocates of the various SJW causes. It's simply a way to cover for their own short comings and defects. They're generally the worst offenders, and frankly the way so many progs describe black people is more offensive than your typical everyday American does.

Quote:The Asbury Park Press appears to have fired Gustavo Martínez Contreras, the longtime photographer who used a misogynistic and offensive caption in a photo that appeared in their online edition on Sunday.

“The reporter in question is no longer with the company,” executive editor Paul D’Ambrosio said this morning.

The Gannett-owned newspaper declined to name Martínez Contreras in an editor’s note that appeared online this morning, but explained how the caption referring to an Orthodox Jewish nurse preparing to administer a COVID-19 vaccination a “a ******* hot nurse, a total JAP” found its way onto their website.

D’Ambrosio said that the reporter was able to upload images directly into their content management system and that as a safeguard, another set of eyes is supposed read the story and captions before it is published. Instead, Martinez Contreras self-published his photos and captions.

Quote:In June 2020, Martínez Contreras won national headlines after Asbury Park police arrested him during a rally for George Floyd that he was covering. Charges were dropped at the direction of Attorney General Gurbir Grewal, and Martínez Contreras has filed a lawsuit claiming his civil rights were violated.

Quote:D’Ambrosio said that he found out about the incident around 7:30 PM – that was approximately 11 minutes after the New Jersey Globe first reported the caption – and said that “we immediately issued an apology.” In reality, [b]that apology came 15 ½ hours after D’Ambrosio was notified.[/b]

Typical hypocrisy as usual from the progressive SJW's.

I thought Jap was a derisive term for a Japanese person........

I guess it's been updated to include "Jewish American Princess" as well as Japanese. Progs don't discriminate when they want to categorize, label and passive aggressively show their disdain for "lesser people".

I've thought the same for a long time. They're trying to correct their past sins & think if they're SJW about it, it makes their own struggles w/ that area go away.
