Tim ChambersThis is the most impactful thing one can do to protest corporate caving to autocracy. Canceling Disney and Hulu subscriptions. I suggest you do the same. Now. And boost messaging like this to friends. Push back hard.
The Sleight Doctor ๐๐@tchambers What's Disney done this time...dare I even ask?
Gepke@ApostateEnglishman @tchambers cancel Jimmy Kimmel Live, because he said things Trump and his cult members don't like.
@geppiegep @tchambers I didn't even know ABC was owned by Disney! ๐ฅด
@ApostateEnglishman @tchambers apparently there's a big merger coming and they want to please Trump. Just like with Stephen Colbert.
How people still deny the US is pretty authoritarian right now is beyond me.

Isn't Disney the parent company of ABC? Google what they have been up to lately...

@BluesHarp I get it now, yes. I wasn't consciously aware that ABC was controlled by Disney.

Fan of Shared Truth & Empathy@tchambers The wealthy are banking on Americans โon both sidesโ not giving up their bread and circuses.
They purposefully bundle sports broadcasting contracts with all other programming socializing the expense to maximize profits.
Hopefully the censorship and abandonment of the of the constitution results in content access alternatives to Citizens United oligarch owned monopolies beholden to authoritarian weaponization in politicized regulation of mergers and licensing.
This Account Kills Fascists@tchambers I love hockey, but won't pay for ESPN for a multitude of reasons. This is another on the pile.
AlgoCompSynth by znmeb ๐บ๐ฆ@tchambers Yeah ... I still have Sling until the WNBA playoffs are done, then it's back to zero TV.
RiaResists@tchambers I cancelled Hulu about a year & ago half ago for promoting #FauxSpews
Boycott is an effective act of #resistance
Iโm watching Colbert.
Really bummed about Kimmel.

How are we going to watch the end of the #rugby world cup #RWC2025 if we do that now?
Mastodon Migration
DP0@mastodonmigration @tchambers ... did so already in April after I realised how much U.S. companies fall in line behind the #OrangeImbecile .
@tchambers
Even though I have neither of those, I do support this. Because these morons who cave in like that should pay for being spineless. I watched the clip of Kimmel when he was making fun of the Tangerine Twatwaffle. He was not going after Kirk at all. Yet somehow that became "vile" according to the right wing pundits. And then they keep spinning it to "the left is celebrating" when the opposite is true. The left is speaking out about all political violence...

VulcanTouristI've never given them a dime in the first place, so my "contribution" doesn't add to the statistic, no one will notice.
LillyLyle/Count Melancholia@tchambers The problem is that most people's worldview is that they are just one tiny person and nothing they do or don't do matters. They don't have any collective consciousness as this has been discouraged under capitalism.
And then there's FOMO involved as well. I can't even get our local politicians to stop their intense use of Meta platforms.
@tchambers It would be more effective if advertisers pulled their buys from ABC. That will never happen.
Evan Prodromou@icanbob @tchambers so, let's do the less effective thing that will happen.
@tchambers @evan Yes we all should be debillionairing. The problem is that we like the billionaires product/service more than we dislike their behaviour. I failed totally to convince any of my friends to switch from Metaโs Instagram to Pixelfed. Same psychology at play.
