One word “Fascism”

Title should call out "Disney-ABC", not just ABC. It's important to connect the dots how few outlets there are and how they are aligned. Christofacist will not be any stretch for Disney, and they have a king background in war propaganda films.

USA corporations always roll over for the feds. Stop thinking you can shame a corporation.

Stop thinking you can shame a corporation.

The most that individuals can do is to kick them in the bank account.

If enough individuals do that at the same time, the corporations might get the message. Though,admittedly, there is a good chance that they will misinterpret that message.

I wasn't advocating shaming, but thanks for the advice. My hope would be people boycott companies--which will be most--that follow the Dear leader.

If we're changing the title it should also just say over MAGA comments. What he said had very little to do with Kirk, and was just slamming MAGAts

“[This] appears to be an action by Jimmy Kimmel to play into the narrative that this was somehow a MAGA or Republican-motivated person,” Carr said.

So what? It sounds like Carr would have been totally fine if Kimmel suggested that the shooter was a far-left Democrat. In that sense, fuck this double-standard.

This kind of fascism needs to end now. Also, Trump ~~fucked~~ raped kids. Release the Epstein files!

When speaking truth to power is punished, we are in some kind of fascist state.

Kimmel didn't even comment on Kirk's Zionazi Christofascist "having babies is an act of war on Republican fascist rule". He just made jokes about Trump's weaving on opportunities to express sympathy for his dearest friend with "White house is finally getting a ballroom" deflection.

The zionazi fox hosts were smirking "that is not the right answer dude", and so they should be blamed/cancelled for asking the question.
