Boost, repost, & share: Boycott Disney
Didn’t this come from Sinclair media, the notoriously right wing, massive media conglomerate?
I’m not sure how it works, and not saying Disney isn’t to blame. But, Sinclair is the company/family that pushed for this, Disney-owned ABC just agreed.
…wikipedia.org/…/List_of_stations_owned_or_operat…
Sinclair is the “ABC Affiliate stations”.
From Wikipedia: On September 17, 2025, ABC suspended Jimmy Kimmel Live indefinitely after Kimmel’s remarks regarding the MAGA movement’s reaction to the assassination of Charlie Kirk drew threats from FCC chair Brendan Carr and an announcement from station owner Nexstar that its ABC-affiliated stations were dropping the program “for the foreseeable future”.[5]
The Trump FCC chair started it by threatening ABC’s license as well as licenses of ABC affiliates…Nexstar/Sinclair said they wouldn’t broadcast the show, then ABC bowed to pressure and said the show was cancelled indefinitely.
Disney is worth $200+ billion, and if they fought this in court, the first amendment is clearly on their side. But like Paramount before them, they are complying in advance.

Oh no, now I can’t see go see quatumania 2 on cinemas…
\s
My joke was more or less on that direction really.
After endgame, I don’t recall anything really good. Wandavision might have been the best, but not great. Thunderbolt’s was a decent movie for a flight, but hardly a recommendation.
I have skipped almost everything, so I might have missed something. Fantastic four had OK reaction I guess, might check it out eventually.
Actually, Spiderman homecoming was good, even if it was nostalgic fan service basically. Maybe deadpool 2, but I don’t know it that counts.

Oh, latecomers to the party!
Welcome aboard.
Yeah. Still using Plex since I am old head with a lifetime subscription I got for $50 on sale a decade ago. Though if not I hear jellyfin is the best now.
Use Unraid for my NAS and definitely going to upgrade to lifetime after I’ve used it for over a year now. Makes things super easy but it’s still Linux underneath so I can do whatever advanced thing I want when needed.
Very well said!
And yes, haha, jellyfin is the uh, ‘new hotness’ lately =P
Yay, Disney hate is finally mainstream! I’m basically inline with popular opinion by virtue of maintaining my firmly held beliefs I developed decades ago and held even when it was inconvenient and unpopular!!! It’s my time to shine for the short period of time this transient fad plays out!
Kidding and current events aside, Disney media has given me the creeps since I was a kid. The popular cartoon movies just felt like propaganda. I’m not saying everything Disney hits that note, but so, so much of it does.
Then I started meeting Disney adults and, while I understand that Disney has no control over how these people act and choose to represent them, all I can say is OH MY GOD. Crazy cat lady, bizarre couple who live in Christmas themed home decor and wardrobe year round, homeless person who’s still got money for meth and thinks he’s Jesus vibes all wrapped up into one with sprinkles on top.
Then they took over local news stations and started presenting “Disney” as news – entire segments dedicated to Disney intellectual properties disguised as “breaking news” kind of bullshit.
And finally they wrapped their slimy tendrils around the neck of super heroes and Star Wars and squeezed until blood poured out every pore while the corpse dried out and rotted.
So, thank you, I’ve had enough, and at least now maybe a few more people will see what kind of monster they’ve been supporting all along and decide to sever the ties.
It’s a bit funny and sad that the most innovation I’ve seen from Indiana Jones and Star Wars has been from video games - a cinematic medium they contract with, but don’t have as much twisted control over.
When Cal picks up a “crossguard” in Jedi: Survivor it was at first a moment of sequel cringe, but then they had the idea of having him wield it like a two-handed bastard sword where it has more weight, and it gives it such a cool identity.

Yoho yoho 🏴☠️
Shouldn’t be. Maybe that only works on the app I’m using. Try this:

a non American that your citizens are being vanished into gulags based on their race
Which citizens? Things are bad enough as it is. We don’t need people on the internet discrediting us.
Hold up… Disney owns Vice?
No wonder they are so shit now.
They bought all the free media, stuff that gets broadcast over the air. A lot of local news TV channels are Sinclair.
Hard to boycott when it is basically broadcast to everyone by default, including to things like Roku
Reaching a real person at any of these companies’ call centers will cost the company real money.
(It can also hurt the statistics of the call center employee, so it’s morally wishy-washy)
