CBS Radio broadcasted this amazing piece by Stephen Vincent Benét titled "They Burned the Books."

Yet now, CBS, under the vile capitulator, collaborator, and stooge Bari Weiss, would dream of putting this on their airwaves.

I did a bit of research on some massive corporations and made a list assigning each of them a few evil corporations from science fiction, yay!

It's like an award, except the award is shame. 🙂

Anyway, check it out. And subscribe if you like. It helps immensely. 🧡
