63. Only solution! Total boycott on all ABC/Disney etc products
Wed Sep 17, 2025, 08:38 PM
Wednesday

Hit 'em where it hurts. We're already paying illegal tariffs with the money going to billionaires and select families. Now the Autocratic Bullshit Company along with the Conservative Batshit Socialists is telling us what we can say and to whom. Ok, we don't need to say or support ABC, CBS or their sponsors any longer.
We need names of Corporate Big Wigs and a list of all sponsors to complain to AND about. They need publicly embarrassed!

When Cracker Barrel righties complained, corporation listened because the right actually did something. WIll the left pull a Merrick Garland? I'd put money on it.
