Is anyone making a list of companies that have fired people for quoting Charlie Kirk’s views?

Seems like a list of companies that support fascism and free speech only when it’s in support of fascism should be well known to all.

god I hate Phillips Hue shit so much

NPR Talking to some NewsMax twat, I missed his name, about Charlie Kirk and homeboy wanted nothing but to lionize Kirk and blame democrats while ignoring the murders in Minnisota and got so flustered at being called out on his nonsense he hung up, LOL.

These people aren't looking for serious discourse.
They hate.
They spread hate.
They profit (Mightily) from hate.
They're not serious people with serious issues.

Oh no. Arkansas voters getting exactly what they voted for. "But the leopard was supposed to eat someone else's face, not mine!”

Elections have repercussions, Arkansas. Hope this is a learning experience, but I doubt it.

Good on ya, Charlie Kirk. Taking one for the team.

Started looking at pet rescues around town. One has 3 adorable littles; Wanda (15), Ty and Cal (2).

Not sure I can do another senior. I still get a bit (Ok a lot) teary when I look at pics of Muppet, but Wanda is an adorable little cutie of an old lady.

There’s an adoption event for this rescue tomorrow so we may go pop in.

@mathowie Right?! Like what really was in the way was corporate owned, wealthy ‘centrists’ that just didn't care.

Look, if you get added to a gov't signal chat. As tempting as it is to dunk on the idiots..... Shut your trap and take notes, leak information to those who can use it.

Be useful.

@TonyStark @bruce I support the @coloradosun as my local source of news but am also open to non-shit outlets for wider news.

I love how the 'Final Destination' movies taught an entire generation to not follow lumber trucks.

Even more I love that they're leaning into this hard.

when will Democrats learn that "It's complicated" isn't the answer (while being true) to any of their problems.

Capitulating to authoritarianism because fighting is complicated, isn't ok.

Not having a clear plan or message right now, because it's complicated, isn't ok.

It's like the only thing they are on the same page on is sending texts begging for money to "Fight"

Reading that pathetic letter from the Kentucky alcohol company…

HA HA Kentucky. You fucked around and guess what?

Not surprised. This is the final step in enshitification.

Lure people in with low prices/easy tech, etc. Slowly strangle with DRM. then make it so you can't leave Amazon and take your books with you.

Medical care is the leading cause of bankruptcy
Let's fix that!
Yes! How?
Make it easier to file for bankruptcy

I get it, and when we looked at it after 360 closed, we decided eating the debt was less burdensome.

But also, I kinda would rather live in a society where bankruptcy was less common, not easier.
