    I want the executives to come out now and say “look this was an honest mistake, we’re terribly sorry we let it appear that we continue to support and bend the knee to a dictator.”

    Then watch as all the people who cancelled Disney+ and Hulu not give a flying fuck.

    The freedom of speech, is arguably the most important right we have. Without it? We have no rights. The second amendment becomes useless. The third becomes useless. There becomes no point in having the fourth. The fifth becomes unusable. The sixth becomes needless effort. The seventh is pointless, as then double jeopardy can just be said it ISNT double jeopardy because the government says so and your arguments against it are illegal speech. 8 and 9 pretty much mean you can’t voice opinions that would affect those two. And 10 can no longer be argued against the executive.

    Trump and ABC, in my mind, crossed a line that they were foolish to cross before they had concrete power. They have too much power now, but they do not have nearly enough to squash the entire country in opposition.

      According to the article it looks like executives are pissed at the CEO and pointing out that the previous CEO’s short tenure was partly due to caving to Florida’s homophobic laws

        Well its currently the leading cause of child deaths in america because less kids are being killed by cars than they used to.

        So less than useless.

          I meant as far as the original purpose goes, certainly it has caused a lot more suffering than prevented tyranny in any way.
