political

adjective

po·lit·i·cal pə-ˈli-ti-kəl 
 
1
a
: of or relating to government, a government, or the conduct of government
b
: of, relating to, or concerned with the making as distinguished from the administration of governmental policy

By that definition I dont think very many people are "political."  Certainly whether they vote or not has little meaning.

Voting is political by that definition.

Your boss has been telling you repeatedly you’re alienating the majority of the market. We are losing patrons tone it down.  Ok that was the last straw. I’m sure before the last straw there were some choice words to his employers about how much he respected their business decision.

I would disagree but what if the government is one of:

Forms of government are categorized by who holds power and the extent of that power, including  monarchies (a king or queen rules), oligarchies (a small group rules), and dictatorships/authoritarian/totalitarian regimes (one person or a small group holds absolute power). Other systems include theocracies (religious rule) and anarchy (no government).

Ya I saw a report about this.  Even that abc and or Disney (someone in management) wanted him to apologize.   He refused.   They also saw some copy of his next monologue where they thought he was going to double down on it …. Or something like that.

Nothing, and I mean, nothing about what Kimmel said amounted to anything "vile."

Kimmel simply said:

"We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it."

Wake up people, nothing about what he said is vile or terrible in any way. Nothing at all directed at Kirk.

Wasn't attacking Charlie, wasn't celebrating his assassination, wasn't defending the shooter.

He was criticizing the far right maga group for trying to benefit from the political fallout.

Seems he was pretty close to exactly right.

He was clearly try to paint him as a maga guy. It was obvious to most people. He was trying to sell a lie

That's where your education lets you down. Nothing could be further from the truth.

He clearly didn't say that, nor did he imply that in his actual words.

You are twisting reality here.

Figured what out? Seems they figured out nothing, you included.

"We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it."

What everyone needs to figure out is that Kimmel wasn't calling out the kid as being MAGA, he was calling out MAGA for trying to distance themselves from this kid

I think you all need to stop living on twitter and Internet forums that only reinforce the inherent biases we have. Any self respecting person on the left or right doesn't agree with killing those on the opposing side.

Jesus Christ...

I think we might actually be able to fix this company if we did that. I mean, it's loading too slow for me to see, but I'm seeing some crazy people on the first post. "I'm not even from America...."

 

So... cool. Not you're including "leftists," all over the world? "Then I'm throwing in Putin... see how silly this gets?

Also, I KNOW @1032004 has openly condemned this from the start, I don't know who he is, but he's never been a zealot who celebrates most murder.

He was fired because Trump and Pam Bondi gave the Project 2025 Author(the one Trump knew nothing about but hired sooo many people from it) the FCC Chairman threatened all the ABC affiliates. If they carried the show, they could be fined or taken off the air. 

It's that simple.

 

Now the President has told reporters, they cannot report on anything related to the Pentagon without getting APPROVAL from the Pentagon first. Probably because we've had to MASSIVE security breaches by the drunk who runs it already.

 

But imagine Biden saying, "you can't report on anything unless it comes through us first? 


OR... Biden saying, "we're going to go after the people who are unfair to me. I get a lot of hate." 


It's... literally, the first thing fascists regimes do. 

Also, look into the goal of project 2025. Consolidate power under a conservative President by means of removing checks and balances. 

The AUTHOR of that is... the FCC Chairmen(one of the authors). 

 

 

This is proof this is a cult. The Biden administration REQUESTED that Facebook remove or put notes on inaccurate information regarding a PANDEMIC and that was seen as this egregious infringement and overreach by the Govt'. 

 

But THIS... you guys just either try to play dumb... or you're just REALLY-really DUMB.

He was suspended for insubordination, he was given a chance to apologize and tone it down, but he refused. His choice. He still may have a job because no decision has been made, he had total control over this scenario and he made his choice.
