Blazing Saddles

[Foxonwater]

The Guardian newspaper was founded by a cotton trader...

It’s classic nonsense from the right wing snowflakes . A few people on twitter get offended about something and they claim everyone is “furious” about “ cancel culture “
It’s confected BS for the hard of thinking .
No one would find Blazing Saddles offensive and no one has tried to ban it .

Just done a search and can't find anyone actually making a claim that it's offensive.
Whoopi Goldberg got involved so presumably someone must dislike the film but again it seems people are failing to see the difference between 'comment' and 'campaign'.

It's a funny film, just because one person doesn't think it is doesn't mean there's a crusade to get it banned.
Lack of research.

That's the whole point. Gone With The Wind was pulled by HBO because of a single op-ed in The Los Angeles Times, not a campaign. Blazing Saddles was slated for the same because of a few comments on social media - not a campaign. And that was avoided by pushback.

I'll expect a little more passion from you when they ban vodka before breakfast.
