Y'all acting like this is anything other than State censorship is hilarious.


State censorship is asking social media companies to shadow ban it outright deplatform individuals that are stating opinions or even facts that the state disagrees with.

State censorship is the state telling actual reporters that a verified laptop belonging to a VP’s son being in the hands of a computer tech is Russian propaganda.

State censorship is directing the IRS to audit and even pull status of non-profits because they come from a different point of view than the state.

It’s not individuals being angry about someone minimizing or outright lying about a gruesome, politically motivated murder, leading to said individual losing his contract.

don’t know a single real human who wasn’t horrified by what happened to Kirk

I had a conversation with someone who I know that said, and I’m paraphrasing a bit here, “I don’t see why this is a big deal, people die every day, why does everyone care so much about this murder?”.

I’m sure you had this same reaction when it was the opposite


Nope. Its been headed down a dark path for a long time. Count me as one of those who can't get behind either of the two main political parties as they don't share what I believe is needed for coexistence. Its going to be this way until something really bad happens. Like reaaally bad.

The state, through the FCC, pressuring a company to silence someone is antithetical to American ideals of liberty.


that must include integrity

He flat out lied to the american people and tried to label the nut job murderer as a right wing conservative. That is diabolical and he did it with grin

Whether you like Kimmel or not, you should not be ok with the direction things are headed.
What’s happening is that a consensus is forming that our country is losing the plot and it needs to get a grip quickly. The suits at Disney and everyone else that embraced all the bullshite for the last 20 years are over it and they have resentment towards people who they feel crashed the party. This isn’t just a conservative movement. This is middle America, corporate America et al.

Kimmel saying that MAGA is desperate to frame Richardson ideologically as anything other than their own is not making a definitive determination on who he is in that area.

The issue here is the FCC putting pressure on stations to shut him down because the President didn’t like what he said. That’s the part a lot of people are uncomfortable with. Does Trump start shutting down news agencies that are critical of him? What happens to Fox News when a Democrat is in the White House?


What the absolute F do you mean "What happens when a Democrat is in the White House"?? We've already lived it several times over.

During Clinton, almost every single conservative media voice magically got a "random" IRS audit.

In the Potato ImPotentate's reign, look at all the BS Banana Republic court actions were taken against DJT, from state all the way to federal level.

No more playing by the rules that only the right has played by. Time to play their game until they quit, go broke, or go to jail.

A psychopath with a gun killed Charlie Kirk. Any other take is pure propaganda.


A psychopath that believed he should because of propaganda fed to him by people like Kimmel.

Any other take is just false.

Biden and Warren weaponized the banking system against various groups that they deemed to be a threat. Obama weaponized the justice department. On and on.
