Brendan Carr’s contempt for the First Amendment is going strong.
This is fishy as fuck. Googling this just goes back to the same creator you linked. No other sources or anything
I can’t tell whether this is real or not.
Whether the censorship is by government or by political party it should be unacceptable, seeing as his comment was not actually import taste at all, in fact it was calling out what was important, trying to score political points off of the murder for other reasons.
Running censorship through a private entity does not make it okay.
Reposting because I think the real story is:
The “he was fired for talking about Charlie Kirk” narrative is a lie.
He was talking mostly about the Epstein Files.
Yup, but the Charlie Kirk shooter thing is what they chose as the excuse.
So, EPSTEIN FILES is the real reason. Maybe some brave publication somewhere that isn’t a supplement-selling, do-you-own-research, shaved headapalooza podcast flogging twitch stream could run with that?
I think that had a part in it, but the joke that likely pissed Trump off the most was the “4th stage of grief, construction” line.
Calling out that Trump doesn’t give a shit about Kirk, because it completely undercuts their use of Kirk as a reason to purge the left.
During the Biden years they had dozens of prominent right wing talk shows that are still around that regularly just pump out the nastiest shit to either make light of, diminish or dismiss the deaths of many people. No one ever said a thing about those aholes.
A right winger is killed by another right winger and the government goes and blames an imagined left and use it as an excuse to censor everyone.
What a bunch of whiny idiots.
That’s because the Democratic Party and its leadership were molded by and are part of the same political swamp. They’re not enemies, they’re friends with the fascists.
You’re getting downvoted but the way they coordinated internally to make sure Bernie Sanders would lose the presidential primary in 2016 told me everything I need to know about the Democratic party: they don’t actually want liberal policies implemented. Their apparent dislike of Mamdani is further evidence.
I thought this party was going to “legalize comedy”? I thought they were going to be warriors for “free speech” and against “cancel culture”?
AFAIK, not one Confederate has ever really been cancelled.
Well, one was.
when i heard that “maybe we’ll go after you” my first thought was “which popular personality at ABC gets axed for this”
it was a call to the ceos for blood and blood he got
So was Colbert, don’t forget about him!
Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives
I’m sure that if we illustrate to conservatives how this move was illogical and hypocritical, the tide will turn and the devolution into fascism will stop. All they need is to be shown the right facts and logic to be set straight.
