feckless cowards, the lot of them.
I hope ABC recognizes that appeasement to this regime only leads to more demands.
Fuck these boot licking Fascist enablers
ABC has ensured they go down in history as villains and enablers.
This is fucking insane.

America has lost its f*cking mind! Are you guys okay over there?
Dude should give a giant middle finger to the administration, donate to Sandy Hook Promise instead, and start his own show or podcast. I’d support it, and I haven’t given a single shit about late night for years.
I thought that this had to be fake. What the actual hell.
What did Kimmel say that is so egregious?
I really want to know the thought process of Republicans claiming to value free speech while going fascist when the speech is targeted at them. What is going on in their brains when this happen? What is it like in their shoes? How do they mentally square the circle?
Fuck that. And fuck ABC. There’s nothing I watch on ABC, so I can’t boycott it. But I’ll never watch anything on it now or in the future, unless they apologize to Jimmy Kimmel and put his show back on.
Wow, that’s next level obnoxious. I’m sure ABC will go into depth on all of the hate speech Kirk spewed.
Da fuq?
Why should anyone be donating to a grifting estate worth over $12 million? Let alone the estate of a person that spent their career spreading hate and inciting violence.
Reminder, Turning Point USA was 1 of 110 conservative organizations that contributed to Project 2025.
Jimmy Kimmel replaced Bill Maher Politically Incorrect after pressure on the network after Maher objected to the 9/11 terrorists being called „cowards“ while we lob missiles from hundred miles away…
Meanwhile Brian Kilmeade, who advocated said the homeless should be killed by “involuntary lethal injection” and “just kill them” still has a show.
Bro. There is no fucking way. This is insanity.
The breaking point is surely close now.
North Korea. I never thought the United States of America would remind me of North Korea. This is crazy town.
> Sinclair, one of the U.S.’s large TV station owners, has long had a reputation for having a politically conservative tilt.
A *tilt*? The picture hanging on my wall has a tilt.
Shouldn’t Trump have to apologize? He’s the one who didn’t care to answer a question about Kirk cause he wanted to talk about his ballroom
Apologize, donate…..or else, what? He already lost his show.
I won’t be watching.
All these companies are bending the knee, hoping to get through the next 3+ years. They are thinking they need to last that long, and then someone else, not so terrible, will come along, and things will be back to normal.
Again, I need the next Dem nominee to run on revenge. Against the republicans. Against the bozo billionaires who seem more concerned with a tax cut. Against the companies that bent the knee.
If you are trying to not watch ABC, don’t forget about ESPN. I’m a sports fan, so this is going to hurt.
How was his comment even offensive? It was a comment about the GOP, barely had anything to do with Kirk… unless I’m seeing an abridged quote or something was taken out of context.
The fuck
If Jimmy Kimmel has to apologize for his comments, what’s next? Will all late night hosts have to get approval from the FCC before making jokes?
CANCEL YOUR HULU and DISNEY+ Subscriptions
Sinclair is ‘Fascism TV’.
Always had been.
So this is the perfect opportunities for some celebrities to step up. They are making massive avengers movie. Tell Bob iger you are pulling out of the movie over this. We need more prominent people standing up.
“And donate to Charlie Kirk’s family”
Oh, so this is money extortion
Charlie Kirk was a Nazi.
@Kimmel Don’t you dare apologize
Silencing comedians is pure putinism.
Charlie Kirk was not a martyr and this is the worst timeline ever.
How long before we can’t access Reddit anymore to communicate about this bullshit? I’m so sad for our country. Fuck Trump. Sooo brave for saying if you even mildly oppose me I will silence you.
I said to my partner when the CK news broke that I hoped it wouldn’t be anyone remotely left leaning or they’d use that to justify shit like this. I didn’t consider that they would just gloss over the fact the shooter was far right to get what they want anyway. This will change nothing, he’ll still wake up tomorrow and say ABC is “on warning” or something. Appeasing him gets you no better treatment.
Sorry, I needed to vent. This sucks.
Charlie Kirk died in the most patriotic way he could ever think. He died swallowing lead just like the kids that were shot the same day. To protect the 2nd amendment. Fuck him
Jimmy Kimmel’s production company just filed a lawsuit against Disney for $1 billion for breach of contract. He’s giving them the middle finger.
America, you had a good run for 240ish years. I mean, it was still a terrible run for Black people and minorities and third world countries, but still.
