    Disney wants Kimmel to tone down his rhetoric, as well as provide an apology to Charlie Kirk’s family and donate to his right-wing organization, Turning Point USA

    Ahahaha, fuck Disney!

      Apparently they had a reconciliation meeting with Kimmel this week, asked him to do all this, and Jimmy’s counteroffer was to give the same fuck-off speech he had planned to give anyway. This is how it should be done.

        People seem to forget that the “Cancel” wave of the '10s mostly gave birth to a bunch of big ticket comedy specials titled “Can’t Shut Me Up” and “The Snowflake Melting Tour”.

        Kimmel’s only going to get louder for all of this.

        Seriously, people just need to have a backbone.

        Kimmel already has “fuck you” money and has proven he can write well enough to sit in any writers room in Hollywood. He can ride off into the sunset and fund some production company and do just fine and say whatever he wants.
