Take your pick:

Note: These are directed at PinkNews, rather than OP. The point I'm trying to make is that, at least in my opinion, it's ridiculous to report on everything this vaguely humanoid turd says and does when it's as inconsequential as this. "Elon Does Nazi Salute" is newsworthy; "Elon Cancels Netflix Subscription" is not.

And now, on with the memes...

I canceled my sub when the US started threatening to annex my country.

What’s the show, and is it good?

[-] Sunshine@piefed.social 3 points 4 days ago

I would say support the creators directly since they pushed for inclusivity, I wouldn’t trust corporations to do the right thing.

this is not news fuck off

edit: to clarify I'm saying this to the publication not the poster

That's weird, when I cancelled netflix nobody wrote several articles about me

Maybe I should try being a massive piece of shit, but I'm not sure it's worth the cost

Am I really supposed to give a shit that a random asshole — which sure happens to be really rich, but is still just... a random asshole — unsubscribed from fucking Netflix?! Is this news?!

I'd much rather live in a place where lgbt views are accepted than in a techno-nazi, musks dystopia

What show? Site is down.

sense8 is a great show on Netflix with trans inclusion though! So is Designated Survivor but you gotta wait for the first season that Netflix made. Trans actress Jamie Clayton is in both and they both made me a fan of her work!

It's a show called Dead End: Paranormal Park. It's very cute and very queer. It had been on my list of things to check out for a while.

Thanks, gonna check it out!

She was phenomenal in Hellraiser too. She is the Pinhead to me since.

I'm confused... The tweet implies Elon agreed with someone else who cancelled because someone on Netflix was mean about Charlie Kirk, and blah blah Trans-agenda. Oct 1 2025

But they show they are discussing was cancelled years ago?

[-] railway692@piefed.zip 2 points 4 days ago

Yea, that's basically it.

"Wealthy conservative says thing is woke" is an evergreen news story in MAGA circles.

Bonus points if they can claim to own the libs.

Lmao what a loser
