I've said it before and I'll say it again: One of the biggest reasons the right wing couldn't make Charlie Kirk stick as their Reichstag fire is that none of them, including his own widow, actually and sincerely gave a fuck he died

Ring is a wildly dangerous company. Always has been. But it has sort of flown under the radar the last couple years as it tried to soften its image. Make no mistake that this is an extremely dangerous surveillance dragnet:

This reminds me a little of Mel Brooks dealing with studio notes.
![From the New Yorker (2021): You have some wonderful stories of basically getting away with stuff at thestudios.
I’d learned one very simple trick: say yes. Simply say yes. Like Joseph E. Levine, on“The Producers,” said, “The curly-haired guy—he’s funny looking. Fire him.” Hewanted me to fire Gene Wilder. And I said, “Yes, he’s gone. I’m firing him.” Inever did. But he forgot. After the screening of “Blazing Saddles,” the head ofWarner Bros. threw me into the manager’s offi ce, gave me a legal pad and a pencil,and gave me maybe twenty notes. He would have changed “Blazing Saddles” froma daring, funny, crazy picture to a stultified, dull, dusty old Western. He said, “Nofarting.” I said, “It’s out.”
That’s probably the most famous scene in the movie, the
campfire scene
.
I know. He said, “You can’t punch a horse.” I said, “You’ll never see it again.” I keptsaying, “You’re absolutely right. It’s out!” Then, when he left, I crumpled up all hisnotes, and I tossed it in the wastepaper basket. And John Calley, who was running[production at] Warner Bros. at the time, said, “Good filing.” That was the end ofit. You say yes, and you never do it.
