What goes around comes around?

Interesting how the very clowns that the disinformation industry (ABC, NBC & CBS) hired to promote their left wing political agendas (Letterman, Kimmel, Colbert, Fallon, Meyers) are now inflicting more pain and suffering on their employers than they are on Republicans.

You're reading this wrong. Disney switched "sides". That's why O'Donnell and others are mad. Disney used to pretend to be woke, and with this last Trump win all the corporations are dumping their old fake woke and going fake conservative now.

MAGA means that the companies are controlled politically by the government and do not get to air opinions that aren't government-approved.

They can make private money, but they have to tow the party line.

So don't worry about the disinformation media, it'll go away soon and eventually everything on TV will agree with you :)

@BorealPedant the difference is, leftists only support companies that are biased to their side; conservatives are just tired of companies trying to be political anything, and thinking they can backpedal their way back into everyone's good graces by being more political or "switching sides" (like budweiser)

@wildbill83 Sure you want them to be political, you just think what you want is "normal" and not politics. Getting rid of DEI is also political.

Disney (and Budweiser) are not "leftist". They're just money-making machines. It was profitable for years for corporations to fly a pride flag or do a pixar about a disabled black trans person or whatever. (Budweiser just forgot who their customer base is) Trump comes in, and makes it clear the government will crush companies who don't share his politics. So Paramount fires Colbert to get their merger, and Disney fires Kimmel to make the boss happy.

The lesson is clear - big mega corporations can still make filthy amounts of money, but they have to kiss the ring. The government is taking over and they have to tow party line.

@BorealPedant wrong, stop projecting

@wildbill83 Okay please tell me why Ted Cruz said this quote on the Friday edition of the Verdict.

“If the government gets in the business of saying, ‘We don’t like what you, the media, have said; we’re going to ban you from the airwaves if you don’t say what we like’ — that will end up bad for conservatives,”

“They will silence us. They will use this power, and they will use it ruthlessly.”

@BorealPedant Ted Cruz doesn't speak for me, nor does Trump or anyone else. I don't buy products based political bias/endorsement of the company selling it...

@wildbill83 We're talking about different things here.

You're talking about personal boycotts. You boycott whatever you want, that's your freedom.

I'm talking about government suppression of free speech, and if Democrats start to lose their rights, you're next. First Amendment bye bye.
