It's easy to give into panic and there IS a ton of things to be afraid of right now and in the future
But what I am holding onto is that the truth of the matter is that the current regime is incredibly unpopular and relying on projecting the image of overwhelming power because they don't have it

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

I don’t know when it’s going to pop for a lot of normies that they are living under an authoritarian regime, but the cancellation of popular TV shows that make fun of the administration might do it www.vulture.com/article/abc-...

It’s not about whether you like Kimmel or not. It’s about free speech.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say.
This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand.
All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

This is fucking insane, and it seems obvious (to me anyway) that this is much less about Kimmel’s comments about CK, and much more about his ongoing, repeated criticism of trump and the government.
ABC announced that it was pulling Jimmy Kimmel’s late night show “indefinitely” after his comments about Charlie Kirk’s death. nyti.ms/46vgZl3

We're 7 months in and Trump and the oligarchs have completely seized control of the media. If you criticize them, your show will be pulled from the air.
This is what dictators do. Fascism isn't coming, it's here.

This week, I’m hosting The Daily Show Tuesday through Thursday.
It’s my first time hosting anything on TV. Ever.
I’ve spent years writing behind the scenes, learning from truly great and talented people. Now, for three nights, I get to sit at the desk and do it myself.

It's not even just that they're banning trans healthcare, they're banning public funding for any therapy at all for trans people where they "affirm social transition", aka they use your name and pronouns and acknowledge the reality of how you move through the world. No support at all.
Ohio just passed it's budget that bans funding for MENTAL HEALTH therapy for all trans people in medicaid.
This is what eradication policies look like.
