Sorry but the fact is a government agency (the FCC) pushed for this. This is a completely different thing than Disney deciding to do it on its own. This is a 1st amendment issue.

      No he did not. You keep spreading disinformation.

        Yes he absolutely did. Tyler Robinson was radicalized left. He is not MAGA. You are spreading misinformation. STOP. Dylann Roof is right wing and a racist and evil. I can say that, why can't you say the truth about Tyler. If you tell the truth and tell your side to stop, then things will calm down.

        As usual, simply reading the quote would quickly show that you're wrong: > 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 "My side" is Americans who think political violence is disgusting. What 'side' are you on?

Which is completely different from when leftists go "we're 'cancelling' this through individual boycott" which a lot of people in this comment section seem to be missing or intentionally misrepresenting.

  Calling harassing employers to get someone fired ‘individual boycott’ is blatantly bad faith.

It took 2 seconds after Jimmy and a few others meanwhile the right has been screaming about cancel culture for 10 years and didn't call it a 1st amendment issue. Lol
