Cancel culture is alive and well at @C2E2. 5 weeks before the show we have suddenly been removed as exhibitors due to allegations of making non specific “offensive” comments. We are artists, publishers and YouTube entertainers that also talk politics with sometimes edgy humor…can we be offensive? Absolutely. Are we criminals or harassers? No. Conservatives? Yes. Your peers? Yes. C2E2 also alleges that Shane Davis (booth was under his company name) was “subletting” his booth by having others sit in. We have never hidden our intentions from C2E2. We were told to list the booth under a single company by them. Had we known there was an issue for our 20X20 PREMIERE exhibitor booth, we would have divided the 20x20 into 4 10X10 booths and asked for them to be combined. If there was an issue, why weren’t we approached with a chance to find a solution after spending thousands of dollars? They wanted us out. I fully expect our industry to turn another blind eye to this incident and take no stand whatsoever against this monstrous behavior that continues to rot our industry from the inside. We would like C2E2 to reinstate our booth. C2E2 has a chance to be on the right side of history and end this shameful practice of Cancel Culture for comic book conservatives in 2024.
