Although I’m generally tired of podcasts and streaming platforms.
I feel like the late show hosts need to band together and bring back the “Strike Force Five” podcast they had during the strike or create their own streaming platform. We need more alternatives to legacy media that are quick to bend.

So this is authoritarianism 🙃
If rich white men, the most privileged and protected class in America, aren’t safe to freely express their opinions then everyone else is beyond fucked. I worry for the safety of every marginalized person in that country

that kanye west on lady gaga quote sprung to mind: i like some of lady gagas songs but what the fuck does she know about cameras?
as in, what the fuck does trump know about comedy and late night tv?
but then i thought: but i don’t like trumps politics. so my whole analogy fell apart

Well, this is how I found out…
While I do think that there were public figures that should’ve spoken more carefully, so far not a single person I’ve seen get fired for talking about that man has said anything even in the same vicinity of what fox news, alex jones, any other maga grifter say on a daily basis about any minority. The DC artist was probably the ‘worst’ one and cmon alex jones saying half a sentance about sandy hook is far worse
I will say, Kimmel seems to have a ton of industry friends, wonder if anyone says anything, and if anyone calls out the mouse specifically

Yet Fox News hosts are allowed to suggest lethal injections to homeless people are have full blown tantrums when they don’t get their way in a discussion.
I’m so tired.

As a Canadian whose parents fled a communist regime, I’m very scared for my fellow Americans neighbours.
Your country is on a fast track to totalitarianism.

Nuclear codes in the hands of child raping, free speech destroying fascist criminals. How delightful.

What a sensitive bitch. When will people wake up to the fact that he’s pulling a McCarthy on everyone that hurts his feewings? If Gutfeld! is the only talkshow left on TV, were cooked.

When I say it’s 9 months in and I’m so tired of these people, tired isn’t even a strong enough word.
I enjoy the late night shows and my irritation is not even about being entertained rn, but why is the President of the United States worried about a tv show? Why did he run for president of a country whose people and values and traditions you don’t respect?
Also how many more people have to lose their jobs for him to feel good about himself? He thinks he’s punishing Jimmy (and Stephen Colbert) but a lot of staff end up out of work and I find that thin skinned disgustingly irresponsible

The canaries in the coal mine are dying one by one, and there’s practically nothing anyone can do but watch. It’s terrible. Fascism isn’t on the horizon anymore, it has already arrived and started rearing its ugly head.

As if the horrific human rights violations weren’t bad enough, now this mf’er is going to have to make me advocate for the most milquetoast libbed up media figures and worst of all for FALLON as conduits of free speech. I’m tired.
Maybe now we know who sends that same blind every week about the “late night host having an affair with a much younger woman” to DeuxMoi. It’s Trump! lol I am only half kidding, he used to do this exact same thing in the 80s and 90s sending in fake gossip about his ops to Page Six et al

While we #boycottabc and Disney and cancel our Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN accounts, just a plug for shunning everyone who supports this regime — if they’re still on board now, they’re unreachable imho. Can confirm that as our country has cratered around us, it’s at least been a small consolation to know that I don’t ever have to hear my MAGA relatives gloat about it again. (Obviously some people can’t do this for a variety of reasons but if you’ve been considering it, the water’s warm.)

These guys should band together. Nothing more dangerous than comedians with vengeance in mind.
And y’all should cut these services and sail the 🏴☠️ seas with the rest of us…

I loathe these fascista leanings. If, however the tired broadcast media want to put themselves put pf viewership they can.
Firing up a streaming profile on any number of existing platforms or deploying a new one would instantly shift the viewership.

We ride at dawn for Conan if this happens to him
