Anyone on the left would have lost their job in a heartbeat.
It’s time to stop holding those on the left to an entirely different, higher standard. It isn’t working and it only gives the fascists more power. This country is absolutely pathetic right now. Time to start putting some feet down and holding the line.
nO! tHe DeMocRaTs aRe PrO gENoCiDe!
Fox Und Fiends
You fire Dowd because he made a very non-offensive offhand remark, which kind of turned out to be true, sure seems like he was a fan at one point, prior to making well reasoned point that a person who make a living fomenting political violence as a solution would unintentionally be on the receiving end of political violence from someone that shared his sentiment.
But hey, literally advocating for people to be killed due to being homeless and in need of mental health care, is perfectly fine.
SMH. Honestly the “Left” is absolutely pathetic in not pushing back and playing the damn game of Calvinball when the stakes are this freaking high.
But if you or I get caught advocating for or celebrating the death of right-wing influencers then we risk not only losing our jobs but also the weight of the federal government crashing down on us.
The only thing I’m celebrating is that, for the first time in his life, Charlie Kirk finally leaned left. Maybe now he’ll stop peddling that alt-right bullshit. Oh, wait… Too soon?
It was never “too soon”
Can we “just kill” Brian kilmeade?
DespiteBecause of his public call to “just kill” unhoused people, Brian Kilmeade continues to host “Fox & Friends.”You’d think he would get a promotion
Hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which then lead to hateful actions.
Just kill 'em
Nothing wrong here is there?
Is he on the list ?
he’s still on the air because he’s a fascist on a fascist, pro-state news channel
the country is run by fascists
“despite”
the USA is a fascist empire this is normal in a fascist empire because this (a pogrom against the unhoused) is already occurring
for fucks sake outrage is very 2000-late, you’re the fucking VOLK
We’re few steps away from Mad Max.
It used to be that advertiser boycotts sometimes worked. They even worked on Fox News in the past. In 2009 all it took for a boycott against Glenn Beck was for him to say that Obama was racist. That resulted in a huge advertiser boycott, which then resulted in them cancelling his show. In 2017 advertisers pulled out of Bill O’Reilly’s show, but it wasn’t his hateful views that resulted in the boycott, it was the sexual misconduct allegations. Tucker Carlson’s show was cancelled eventually too, there were some advertiser boycotts, but it really seemed like what hurt Fox was that they lost a defamation case that he caused and it cost them nearly $1 billion.
OTOH, often boycotts don’t work. The boycott against Laura Ingraham didn’t seem to work. Her show is still on the air. She was forced to apologize though. Jeanine Pirro was lightly punished with her attacks on Ilhan Omar, but her show was never cancelled. It stayed on the air until she became (and it’s hard to believe this is real) the US Attorney for DC.
It seems like sometimes a loss of money works. But, it seems to work better if it’s a defamation suit vs. an advertiser boycott. Still, an ad boycott might help.
Here are some lists of who advertises on Fox News:
Fox News is able to survive advertisement boycotts more easily than other outlets because they charge a higher rate to cable providers to carry their channel. They know their viewership will sign up with the company that has their channel and not the competitor that doesn’t. So all providers need to have it because their audience is huge. So they collect a larger percentage of their revenue from these companies than other channels do.and because of that, they don’t need as much money from advertisers and can more easily absorb an advertiser boycott.
I think to save the world, we should just kill Fox & Friends.
Someone should make a bot that responds to all of his socials with that clip for eternity.
Challenge accepted
But Kirk or that United Health CEO or a politician or a business leader are all off the table. Calling for the killing of masses of undesirables is fine but don’t dare suggest that for the people who decide to actually kill those masses.
There’s no cancel culture for the piece of shit
We’ve never been the target audience, so boycotting this dumpster doesn’t really cancel anything. Their audience is fine with his rethoric.
As much as I like Michelle Obama, her idea of “when they go low, we go high” is really slitting is in the wrist right now. It really doesn’t work when the low side’s bar is non-existent. Personally, I’ve always been a fan of “when they go low, we curb stomp them out of existence”.
And they’ll happily fall in line when THEY are the target
I think we should really put numbers to this and highlight the severity of his statement. According to numbers reported in The 2024 Annual Homelessness Assessment Report (AHAR) to Congress, he casually suggested killing around 771,480 people. https://www.huduser.gov/portal/sites/default/files/pdf/2024-AHAR-Part-1.pdf
That’s close to the population of Seattle. https://www.seattle.gov/opcd/population-and-demographics
Near the death toll of the American Civil War. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Civil_War
Brian would be perfectly happy killing the entire population of Seattle, as is.
