Homie, we are still knee deep in damage done by Reagan. This is not getting fixed in our children’s lifetimes.
Edit: Oh damn I should have read the other comments lmao fuck Reagan.

…not to mention the damage done by Reagan, which we’re still paying for.

Here’s a big one:
The 1987 repeal of the fairness doctrine enabled the rise of talk radio that has been described as “unfiltered” divisive and/or vicious: "In 1988, a savvy former ABC Radio executive named Ed McLaughlin signed Rush Limbaugh — then working at a little-known Sacramento station — to a nationwide syndication contract.

Rush Limbaugh
Should say “sentient steamed ham”
The link just goes to a photo of a urinal.
And what’s even crazier is that if Reagan were to show up today with identical policies, those very same relatives would probably call him an evil leftist.
Propaganda works. Period.
Hitler knew it. Reagan knew it. Rupert Murdoch lives it every day. We are doomed to be fucked as long as corporate media rules.

Every time the FDA or another federal agency does something really asinine, I always wonder if it’s Trump holdovers. Biden should have forced a comprehensive audit of all federal agencies and review who was appointed by Trump and who those appointees hired to whatever level of management is appropriate. Trump deliberately appointed people who were against the roles and responsibilities of the agencies they were running, and so the people they hired likewise should have been reviewed. I know there’s some limits to what the president can do for judges and some other positions, but Trump has literally stated he’s going to burn it all down and fire everyone in the government that’s not a full blown Trumpist.
We won’t recover from that.
But didn’t DeSantis explicitly say he was making these changes because Disney spoke out against the law?
Yes, but the judge is right wing hack and doesn’t care.
A Disney spokesperson told CNBC Wednesday, “This is an important case with serious implications for the rule of law, and it will not end here.”
The spokesperson also said that if the ruling were “left unchallenged, this would set a dangerous precedent and give license to states to weaponize their official powers to punish the expression of political viewpoints they disagree with.”
“We are determined to press forward with our case.”
What fucking Bizarro world do we live in where Disney taking an L is bad news?
One in which it means that fascism gets the W.
Yeah. I hate Disney and this is bullshit.
The Florida governor has made this very clear. Florida doesn’t want Disney in their state. Disney should move to a state that would love and appreciate the incredible amount of business they bring.
Disney should move to a state that won’t punish them because they treat LGBTQ folks and other vulnerable groups like human beings. They should move somewhere that won’t be an active, hostile threat to their business and patrons.
Florida doesn’t deserve Disney and Disney should not continue to benefit Florida with their presence. There are many eastern states normal people still feel safe to visit. Florida is not one of them. Do the U.S. a favor, Disney. Move already!
You know how big Disney World is? You can fit Disney Land into one of its parking lots. Walt bought that 27,000 acres for a dime on the dollar. It’ll be there when Ron DeSantis is long gone. Here’s a tip…never bet against the mouse.
That’s great! That makes it even more profitable to sell. They can slowly sell off the land as they launch operations in a normal state.
They can still be major land-holders long after lil Ronny is gone. And the cheaply-bought land can serve as another example of the damage lil Ronny did. They can even have signs on the land saying “lil Ronny Go-Go Boots Did This” until it sells.
But, without Disney the land and everything around it is worthless.
I suspect even with inflation, it’s more valuable now than when it was purchased. Plus, many die-hard Floridians are looking to move a bit more inland, so non-coastal property values may increase over time.
Let’s also not forget the immense arrogance of conservative politicians and investors who may see this as an opportunity to open their own theme parks on that land, filled with bible-based bigotry and unsafe carnival rides.
It’s ridiculous even to think about. The mouse ain’t that stupid.
They can even have signs on the land saying “lil Ronny Go-Go Boots Did This” until it sells.
Nah, those signs staying are part of the contract on the land sale and can only be removed if some obscure never to happen thing happens so it’s legally valid to stay forever.
Hahaha good idea!
Ron’s having an embarrassing 2024 so far
If you read the article you’ll see this isn’t necessarily a loss of DickSantis.
I read it. Disney plans to appeal.
He’s still having an embarrassing 2024.
My favorite was Mr. Go-Go boots being presented with a participation trophy 🏆 just before dropping out of the Presidential election 😂
While I don’t disagree with you there, your comment just reads as an auto-assumption without reading the article even if that wasn’t the case. Him having an embarrassing year so far and this specific issue working for him are two separate things.
He wasn’t presented with anything. A prankster group just walked up to him with a fake award. They were escorted away immediately. You don’t like getting into those pesky details do you?
“He wasn’t presented with anything”
Proceeds to describe him being presenting with something.
The parent clearly was making it seem like there was some kind of official presentation where he got this trophy. C’mon…Don’t pretend like there was any substance to that. It’s not like he accepted it.
It was literally over and done with in less than a minute and the video alone is only 25 seconds: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x40jxIqlfOs
I’m glad they recorded the ceremony! Congratulations to lil Ron for his participation trophy!
Despite the thumbnail, this one is a win for the little dude.
That thumbnail really highlights his beautiful eyes
…more like his disposition.
