Part of the reason Stephen Colbert’s show is getting cancelled is over the Trump Administration approving a merger between Paramount and NBC?
And then they decided to offer South Park Studios a $1.5bn deal…
I’m guessing the Charlie Kirk assassination isn’t the only reason South Park is getting delayed.
As disgusted as I am with the people that have been openly celebrating Charlie Kirk’s assassination, I don’t think death should automatically make somebody immune from criticism. All Kimmel did was point out that the MAGA crowd are desperately trying to characterize Tyler Robinson as a dangerous leftist, despite evidence so far pointing to him being a Gropyer (alt-right white nationalist faction that has openly feuded with Charlie Kirk.)
Kimmel deserves better than to be cancelled because Trump is a twiggered wittle snowflake who can take about as much criticism as a Reddit or Discord moderator.
Thinking of canceling Disney+? You’re not alone
I already cancelled mine over a year ago because Disney tried to dismiss a wrongful death lawsuit on the grounds that the family had agreed to a forced arbitration clause, all because their daughter signed up for a Disney+ trial. Do I even need to explain how much of a cunt you need to be in order to wave a forced arbitration agreement at a grieving family whose loved one was killed by the gross negligence of a staff member?
(also, the fact that I can type this comment on Lemmy and not Reddit says it all.)
Fucking wild that a right-wing YouTuber/social media influencer was assassinated on my birthday.
I’m genuinely sickened by how many people have been openly celebrating Charlie Kirk’s death, like having conservative views or supporting the right to bear arms literally makes you Hitler in their eyes. His two young childen have been robbed of their father, and people are still cheering like they’d genuinely use his grave as a gender neutral toilet.
Also, I worry this is going to be America’s Reichstag Fire or Kristallnacht moment. This could very well lead to pogroms against leftists and ethnic minorities.
I think the only reason there hasn’t yet been a full-blown pogrom against the LGBTQ community is that the shooter they apprehended was a far-right groyper and not the far-left antifa terrorist they assumed would target someone like Kirk.
But with the sheer number of people on the left openly celebrating Kirk’s death, I don’t think they’ll really need evidence to start going after the left.
