^ Kirk’s words ^
Why were universities letting this shit bag talk to their students?
Cause they agree with him?? Cause he paid them to be there? Who the fuck knows.
Washington Post fired its black opinion editor because she quoted Charlie Kirk for saying:
“Black women do not have the brain processing power to be taken seriously. You have to go steal a white person’s slot.”
Let’s stop taking the Washington Post seriously
They are basically natuonal enquirer.
They’re just getting started. Colbert was fired as a demand to allow the sale of CBS’ to Larry Ellison, 2nd richest man, and a vicious MAGA. With Colbert out, the decks were cleared for the sale.
CBS used to have the reputation of being the gold standard of broadcast news. Now it’s just going to be one more mouthpiece in the Conservative Propaganda Machine.
I just cancelled my Hulu account this sucks, my daughter loves volleyball and I’m a football fan
Perhaps sail the seas and look at some IPTV options
Well what are the remarks? What a shit article. It’s barely longer than a sentence.
"We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them, and doing everything they can to score political points from it,”

Also, every headline I’ve seen portrays it as a comment on Kirk or on the shooting. But it’s entirely about the MAGA reaction.
Yeah all the articles are trying to leave out the actual remarks because there isn’t anything bad about what he said. Maga just didn’t like it.
Thank you.
The Republic has fallen. The fascists have won.
Okay, I bet Charlie will be off the air for longer though.
So they’ve now gotten rid of Colbert and Kimmel, 2 of the most brutally honest guys going after trump. Interesting.
Video of monologue: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-j3YdxNSzTk
July 2025 Paramount/CBS agreed to pay $16 million to trump over a 60 Minutes lawsuit, then announced The Late Show with Stephen Colbert is being cancelled.
July 2025 PBS and NPR were federally defunded in a Congressional tribute to trump.
December 2024 Disney/ABC agreed to pay $15 million to trump over a defamation lawsuit, then in September 2025 cancelled Jimmy Kimmel Live.
September 2025 New York Times, Penguin Books, several authors are now being sued by trump for $15 billion because, still, that 60 Minutes segment.
Just a reminder: No Kings
Hey do you mind if we try an alternate timeline for a few days
Sooo… I’m guessing the complaints are coming from people who didn’t watch it? Because I can’t put my finger on anything that was horrible or false or anything.
I’m confident they were just looking for a reason after Colbert. Seth Meyers better use his last few weeks before he gets pinched to come up with a contingency plan, cus this is a fucking crackdown.
My guess is that the right wing propaganda machine to hide the epstein connections, doesn’t want it shown that trump takes kirk lightly and doesn’t give a shit about his death. It’s hard to keep it going if dear leader doesn’t even care.
But the trucks…
Both Taco and his cult are whiny little bitches.
his mocking of Trump’s grieving of that dude’s death was low and distasteful regardless, to say the least
(Believe this may have been sarcasm?)
You mean lack of grieving or you didn’t watch it.
Fuck you.
free speech absolutists
More hate speech absolutists
I’ve been saying that the billionaires and oligarchs — who own the majority of the S&P500 and political class — WANT fascism for the last 2 decades. They are behind it’s political resurgence, globally; most have already publicly stated things that prove they are authoritarian sociopaths (Musk, Thiel, the Koch’s, Ellison, Zuck, etc).
This explains why Trump has never seen the invite or a prison cell, despite 100 clear as day felonies, why the Dem establishment has never done more than performative resistance, etc.
They always do. When capitalism starts to falter and the public opinion starts to turn on the system the ownership class goes right to fascism to crush the population.
Dear USA, fight for your rights. What’s happening now reminds me of what happened to Baseem Youssef in Egypt: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-27671642
No one wants to give up their comforts. We’re all just sitting here letting this happen. No one wants to get violent or have a general strike or stop paying taxes or camp out in front of the white house or stop buying shit… We’re afraid of losing things that are going to be taken away in the future anyway.
It’s getting close.
I knew Trump was coming for Kimmel eventually. How long until American television is all pro-trump propaganda?
Even this framing is dishonest - he didn’t make comments about Charlie Kirk, he was mocking MAGA for rushing to weaponize his death. ABC shut down his show for a valid criticism of MAGA.
Yeah, it’s not looking good for them. Everyone is siding with trump in fear of being targeted.
Fucking bitch ass move by a bitch ass corporation capitulating to a bitch ass administration.
I came here to say exactly this.
ABC confirmed fascist propaganda network. Good to know.
Absolutely! I’ve been an ABC News viewer for many years, but I’ve been concerned lately. This cements it. I’ll be switching my news to NBC for the time being.
This is why the fediverse matters. Kimmel or Colbert, right now they can turn to platforms like YT and will still be able to get the voice out.
But guess what. The same corporatism that control ABC control google. You live on their platforms your message is dependent on their approval.
The future is free; the future is federated.
If the fediverse was a threat then it would also be a target.
As an immediate illustration to your point apparently Reddit politics has apparently been removing this story left and right.
Out of curiosity, I went and checked the front page of r/all. Of the current top 25 posts, these are the ones which pertain to the Kimmel situation followed by their respective subreddit:
/1. news /2. askreddit /3. cringetiktoks /7. technology /9. nofilternews /10. politics /13. fauxmoi /14. facepalm /18. whitepeopletwitter /23. popculturechat
The post on r/politics pertains to before the show was pulled, but it was posted after it was officially pulled. Some subreddits do delete repeat posts that are about the same story to keep the discussion all in one thread, so maybe that has happened with that subreddit?
[Edit: added slashes to prevent auto-formatting from changing the numbers]
Spez got invited to talk to Congress about radicalism on social media. I bet that has something to do with it. Steve “Bugeyes” Huffman will not turn down an opportunity to help Trump out.

EDIT: I misread your comment. Forget I said anything. Carry on.
Hear hear!
Fascism, folks. Time to resist
But… Someone tried actually resisting and now we’re all hand wringing over it…
That’s why we all need to do it. NOW
We just found out when someone does something that all the top supposedly leftist commentators immediately capitulate and actually cry about it like a bunch of bitch-baby neoliberals
