news
Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

These guys are about as generic lib as it gets, but axing Kimmel and Colbert feels significant in terms of the swelling of fascism. Even these nerds firing off nerf dart zingers are no longer being tolerated.
A few people have already pointed this out in the replies, here is the quoted bit, then he sets up for a cutaway to the awesome Trump appearance on Fox and Friends where he's bragging about the new ballroom
Like okay, taken in the absolute least charitable way, and Kimmel is saying Robinson is MAGA? But I think a reasonable interpretation is that he's saying exactly what we witnessed, Republicans scrambling to try to pin Robinson's identity as .... anything other than one of them.
Link if interested, hardly required for context IMO
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
