NOW I'm for sure going to cancel. Gutless assholes. I get that corporations have only profits as their duty, per court decision, but you can pretend. Or we can assume they don't think we're pulling out of this, and the fascists are going to win. Either way, fuck them
So they get the MAGA thumbs up by bending over for Trump, and then by reinstating the show, get further support by "not really" censoring him, we wouldn't (totally) trample someone first amendment rights like that. And they get the left thumbs up by proving a "loud enough response" was enough to turn the tide. Sounds kinda win win for them, despite everyone being another step closer to his glorious supreme leader's rise to his eternal throne.
They don't have any money. They live off the government while screaming about other people who live off the government (or are billionaires, who don't manage their own anything and so will cancel nothing)
Don't be optimistic, even if Jimmy says what he wants, the network and bigwigs gave already shown who they are and what they're willing to do. This changes nothing
I'm already disgusted at the number of people I see going "they did the thing, now restart your subs" as if the problem was that they pulled Jimmy and not that they capitulated to the illegal demands in the first place.
Bet it would have been cheaper to fight this in the first place, huh, assholes? Maybe the next company they come after will do the math - because that's the actual point of this. We have to make it financially painful to support fascism - because they only speak Money.
Knowing Kimmel, I wouldn't be at all surprised if he slaps orange makeup on Matt Damon and acts like his gimp for a solid minute before letting us all know it was a joke and Matt Damon gets dragged off the stage by actors in "Antifa" shirts.

IKillButerflies
Translation, we lost enough money in the blowback that we had to do a 180.

Always remember, the consumer holds all the power. This is true both for goods and for services.
Noahbalboa82
Good to know that their moral compass is still money
PointlessNips
You should still boycott Disney.

Stay unsubscribed. Fuck these assholes.
EaNasirsExcellentHighGradeCopper
I hope he comes out the gate swinging at both disney and trump.
UncleRat
Disney lost a shitload of money.
invaderjak
Just in time for Taco Tuesday. I'm still cancelling my subscription, and I hope Kimmel still sues
ISayShenanigans
So, what's the catch? The mouse don't give for free.
psstuphere
Keep the boycott going, it must cost them dearly
IAmGORT
I guess that Jimmy turned up with some serious lawyers to the meeting.
DarkZalgo
Nah they were perfectly within their rights to fire him. More likely they looked at their stock valuation and subscriber count dropping like a rock.

Show the full show with "the comments" to a jury of 10 people who haven't seen it before and ask them to point to the inflamatory bits. Good luck.
Ggbambi
Wouldn't matter if its inflammatory anyway

Lol now right wing is going to be upset and cancel their memberships too LOL

The amount of them that go into debt to be Disney people is insane. They love the idea of European princesses

Let's see what the conditions are first, but cautiously optimistic.

Don't be optimistic, even if Jimmy says what he wants, the network and bigwigs gave already shown who they are and what they're willing to do. This changes nothing
malbec
Does he still have to pay millions to Hollow Point and apologize to Cuck’s wife?
awkungen42
I mean regardless of what the conditions are, stop giving Disney money.
loedout
This. If they force an apology or otherwise change the show to appease fascists, it's really no better than keeping him suspended.

I definitely want to see what Disney actually does to fight fascism before I consider giving them a cent again.

(the joke being his new fealty to Trump, not his suspension)
