As much as it still hurts when companies walk back their decisions, it's really important as consumers that we also walk back our decision on supporting them. If we always stop supporting them regardless, they will continue to make decisions that don't support the people. It's important that we have power in these scenario. In the end, it's better that Kimmel is back on the air, and that he can joke and criticize what's happening. Let's support them walking it back.
Just putting him back isn't enough if he seems muzzled. We'll see.
More like thoughtful conversations with the financial department...
Let's fucking go. You don't have to pretend to have a spine anymore and watch Disney slop again.
Get. Fucked. Mouse. 📎
The mouse bends the knee. Cyber bullying works! Don’t resubscribe.
My boycott will continue until Iger & the board are replaced. Bootlickers & cowards cannot be trusted.
Wow, I guess the people still have some power! It’s stupid though because the damage is done. A lot of those people aren’t gonna resubscribe.
how to make all sides unhappy in less than a week by ABC
TACO Tuesday!
Lol, and now we get to watch everybody buy their memberships again and the company will move forward like nothing ever happened.
The monologue will be fire.
Indeed! But since it's Kimmel we'll have to wait and see if it's funny.
It'll be nice if Kimmel doubles down. He might as well, he should realize his career is fucked regardless of what he says.
And now everyone is going to run back with naive happy arms.

Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
