#CancelColbert was a reactionary hashtag meant to address casual racism (aka micro-aggression) but there was no base of operations outside of Suey Park. There was no real call to actually cancel Colbert Report as the hashtag claims to want to achieve. The base outside of twitter, in this case Suey Park, is called on to educate the general public. I will leave it to you to weigh whether that has been accomplished or not. #Not4Sale was/is meant to be a way for Native Americans to stand up to Dan Snyder. Its a way for Natives to tell him we cant be bought and silenced by his blood money or faux-charity. The base outside of Twitter is EONM and a larger, older 40 year Native movement to end Native-racism. When given the opportunity EONM activists educate the general public about how wrong Native Mascotry is in any medium. The change #Not4Sale is wanting is a real goal of ending the exclusion of Native American voices. Secondly, to end Natives being silenced by billionaires, like Dan Snyder, who are attempting to bribe support-according to Susan Harjo. #Not4Sale is on-going. I can see how someone can compare Twitter activists to Bitcoins, after all, I just did. Mr. Gupta also pointed out Michelle Malkins involvement in #CancelColbert. Her involvement made me notice something I hadnt really considered before as playing a role in anything EONM does. ladyhoneybea.blogspot/2014/04/dan-snyder-has-big-friends-in-low-places.html
