Trump could walk over to the National Archives, open the case, take off his diaper and wipe his blotchy, bloated ass with the Constitution and braindead MAGAs would cheer him for it.

It all depends on how many coloring books & comfort puppies we can acquire to soothe their nerves.


So many smarmy, condescending douchebags on the right like this poster, yet they want to call the left "elitist"

It blows my mind how self-unaware they are.

The whole idea of a strike seems to completely elude you. You've apparently never had to fight for a single thing in your life.

This is not a freedom of speech violation. Your employer, and in his case ABC, can fire you for misconduct.


Not how the 1st amendment works.


Tell me how it works then.


A company can absolutely fire someone for cause, but they can also get their asses sued for wrongful termination. Notice how Kimmel has yet to release a statement? He is about to go nuclear and Disney is about to lose a crap ton of subscribers simply because they kissed the dictator’s ring.

And if you think this is going to silence the “radical left”, this latest lunacy is going to do the opposite. Ladies and Gentlemen, things are about to get real. I’m legitimately getting nervous that the proverbial powder keg is about to explode. Big.


This will go to court and it will not end well for Trump's FCC goons, or for ABC and anyone else who went along with it.


I’m sure there’s a contract too beyond normal at-will employment. I think Disney made a mistake bending the knee to this administration.

Yes! And all the plumbers and electricians and oncologists and pediatricians should just stay home. Stick it to Trump! He’ll suffer greatly.

Or how about when when trump was banned from social media?

Megan kelly was fired by nbc....

And tucker carlson was fired from fox news.

How about when jk rowling was blacklisted?

You all have what’s called ‘selective memory’!


None of that is the government. Try again.


Remember COVID? And all the censorship Biden admin did on social media, etc.? Oh yeah, you don't remember that do you? And don't give me this BS about OMG PANDEMIC!!! SAVING LIVES!!

That's free speech too, you know.


Lies and misinformation are not protected speech. But I too wish they'd just allowed you all to continue drinking bleach.


The US Government is not the ultimate arbiter of truth. You can say or post a lie about something. It's not free from consequences, but the government isn't going to toss you in the slammer for it.

NO discerning opinion on COVID was allowed, all of that got censored per the Biden admin's doing, but you don't remember that do you???


The fun thing about fact is that something either is factual or it is not. Not allowing you to spread verifiably false information is not censorship and it is not protected speech.


Unfortunately “science” isn’t as clearly true or false as you & most other idiots think it is.


Why did you put science in quotes like you question whether it's real? But we're idiots? 😆

We have been in lockdown mode before, and we can do it again. Delete meta and X accounts. Cancel Disney+ and Hulu. Stop watching ABC and CBS.

But also, peacefully protest in large numbers everywhere these politicians can be found. Don’t let them go a single day without being surrounded by protesters wherever they go. It needs to be relentless but peaceful.

The mega-wealthy need to step up, including celebrities. They need to stop spending and stop showing up for work too. They are the ones who won’t starve if they stop going to work. They are the ones who would have a stronger impact if they stop spending.

We keep wringing our hands about how horrifying this is, but we aren’t doing anything about it collectively. The No Kings protests are great but not enough.

We don’t have to live like this.


Honestly, a partnership with Hollywood is what we need to get people mobilized. Not because celebrities should speak for us, but because we need to marketing campaign along with organization. Even then, I think it's a really high bar now to get people in the streets.


Do you even hear yourself?

Probably all of the things worth doing. Look, we know that the maga cucks are going to work to try to stick it to the libs, but you can’t of there are no adults around.

Delusional. You are delusional.
