And now all the normies who were threatening to boycott Disney will sign back up for their slop chutes
Nature is healing
The same day that the new mandolorian and grogu trailer dropped! Wow! What a coincidence!
Remember baby Yoda?
Of course you do, buy some more shit you dum-dums!
I LOVE GROGU MORE THAN MY NEWBORN SON 
DiSSney should hire me, I just came up with Grogurt, a go-gurt type snack themed on grogu. I'll take my $250000 cheque please.
Edit: it's a thing already??? I'm sad and disappointed
It looks like shit. Sure as hell wont be worth movie prices, not that I would have gone either wy
i don't pay for slop so ill watch it and not worry i helped their money or algorithm.
oh its a movie. well, it will be on streaming after like 2 weeks anyways.
Finally, after several long days my snout can descend into the rat feces! 
I only pirate now, I am a festering blight eating away at black heart of modern media.

trump rolls worst fascist cultural purge ever, asked to leave
It's both hilarious and depressing to witness all the libs and self-proclaimed leftists celebrate and pat themselves on the back on Mastodon right now. Some are even posting how Disney will still not get them back, because they have now seen their true colours. I mean, interesting red line. I sure thought that would have come sooner.
Wow, amazing activism. Activism that achieved to get the status quo back. Great.
Voting with the wallet, got Jimmy Kimmel. Great success.
Amazing how the focus is on a wealthy media personality who, even if he were fired, would still be able to lead a life of luxury unimaginable to the vast majority of people, and not on the scores of minimum wage workers who have had their livelihoods destroyed for not sieg-heiling
American treatlerites continue their holy war for treats, instead of solidarity
Libs: Genocide happening, I sleep, but when their treats are threatened, that's when the gloves come off!
They did it by cancelling their Disney+ subscriptions but can bother with BDS.
50% believe pisrael perpetrating genocide, but somehow that intersection with disney viewership (or any other bds target) is 0%. Very cool, solidarity from seppos as stellar as ever

Thank goodness, now I can go back to being upset that this unfunny joker has a job
and now every lib renews their harry potter subscription.
Democracy has won.
We can go back to brunch!
Stuff like this is why I’m not entirely convinced “last elections ever” and “gas chambers in alligator Alcatraz” are likely to happen. They can’t even fully commit to shutting down media opposition, although owning all major media both old and new is a concerning start.
I'd like to be optimistic, but it's also still year one and the shit that is happening is still laying the groundwork for far more horrific shit. They don't need gas chambers for people to be killed. And apparently theres a big chunk of people missing from the Florida concentration camp, for example. Not to mention the folks in camps that get sick and fucked up when Covid makes its way through them.
I think maybe what will save the USA from getting to gas chambers and roving death squads (if that's how it plays out) is that all of this flooding the zone and accelerationism that they are doing to overwhelm the opposition and the media is also overwhelming their own ability to respond.
He wants to force the South Koreans into an unequal treaty but the deportation ramp up and lack of interagency coordination handed them a perfect reason to stall. He wants to ramp up weapon production but the trade war has choked off the defense industry's access to rare earths and other manufacturing inputs. He wants to ethnically cleanse Gaza and turn a profit on it but he keeps getting distracted by NATO very obviously losing the war in Ukraine. He wants a strong dollar and low interest rates, which are well known to be economic opposites. They barely even got any juice out of Charlie Kirk, and we all saw how hard they tried to wring it from his still-warm corpse
barely even got any juice out of Charlie Kirk
well yeah, most of it had already gushed out of him within seconds
This assassination really had the best memes
Kirked up white boy throated with the sauce.
Idk, I think you may be mistaken if you think that what Trump is doing in the moment is ultimately what he wants. It's like that old adage, about it not being about the destination but the journey. Him and his allies are ripping the copper out of the walls with every chaotic event that takes place. Like with the Tariff shit; a couple months ago he was openly talking about someone making money in the market off his announcements. Just the other day he was talking about how much profit was made from selling US weapons to Ukraine. They're not turning the US isolationist, but they are isolating USians while knocking their feet out from under them. The goal is not to make america strong, it's to make the the US working class weak and vulnerable while him and his class re-establish themselves as whatever they envision modern day slaveholders to be, whether it be warlords or feudal type shit. Him and his ilk have no allegiance to the country itself, it's just another global market to be shoved back under the boot of global capitalism.
I understand the argument about Trump and all of his class allies using this period to loot what is left and consolidate control but I don't buy that they are deliberately destroying the imperial institutions that took centuries and oceans of blood to build and maintain.
I don't think they want to forfeit the US dollar's "exorbitant privilege" yet it is rapidly slipping away. I know for an absolute fact that they are howling with rage at the rapprochement between India and China. Do you think as I do that the empire is hurtling towards hyperinflation and a sovereign debt crisis? If so, how would that give the imperial elites more power?
I don't think hyperinflation is going to play out for us the same way it will for them. They own the means of production, the assets, the private property. Inflation has always been coming out of our pocket while they benefit. I don't see that changing anytime soon. They are in a position that allows for much more flexibility and agility on the global stage than the rest of us have.
As for the imperial institutions, again I don't think they're going to be isolationists, but they will follow the money. And if the wheels fall off in the process, I can't really say that's much of a change than the US has been doing for decades. Look at the F-35. Or from my own personal experience, half the navy fleet has always been on fire. Seriously. I was on a ship 20 years ago that had a fire every other day. The US military has never been a well oiled machine, they've just had good PR.
Edit: lol, do you remember when we first invaded Iraq post-911 and people were donating body armor to soldiers?

People love minimizing the antiimmigration violence happening in this country when it’s the chuds in power. They increased the ICE budget by, like, 300%. Iiirc it has a higher budget than the FBI, NSA, and CIA.
That money is not going to just sit there. If they don’t use it now, in the next 4 years, don’t worry, it’ll be the dems using and that’s when we’ll really start talking about it I guess
Anti immigration violence is pretty normalised in western countries though
higher budget than the FBI, NSA, and CIA
If my googling is right, it's a higher budget than the FBI and CIA's budget combined.
ICE is going to start doing coups in Chicago

Yeah fwiw Trump is still the incompetent fascist.
Damn this sucks, nothing ever happens
Rustled as they may be, the twin Jimmies stand tall for another day
FUCK THIS DEAD FASCIST PODCASTER. HOLY FUCK.
They sure do talk about how great he was, but they never play any of his videos or any audio. Weird huh?
Trump can't even do a proper purge.
Time for Jimmy to become the Avenging Son
This is repubs testing to see how far they can go. Colbert is still out. They'll keep poking and proding locally. Around the globe? Impunity and genocide
OK, but artists pulling out of Lilith Fair in protest of Disney suspending the former co-host of The Man Show is a top-tier bit that was not on my hellworld bingo card
Tangential, but what is the consensus around here about Jimmy Kimmel? Is he just the typical vapid liberal host or is he more insidious than that? I know nothing about him other than that he was on that misogynist The Man Show a long time ago and that the few times I tried to watch him, he was not even a little bit amusing, just dull and totally lacking charisma. But my lib dad who also never watched him before now thinks he's this great comedian who speaks truth to power. 🙄
