What’s even better is that this is 100% pulled from the republican playbook. It has happened multiple times over the years where a Democrat wins the governorship in a red state only for an emergency session of the state congress to pass a bill restricting their powers before they enter office.

If ever a grouping needed to recreate the “are we the bad guys?” meme/sketch, it’s the modern Republican party. Don’t especially like Disney’s corporate manoeuvres over the last few decades, but DeSantis by accounts really does come across like a total piece of shít. Not even an especially clever or successful PoS,…

a 2022 spat between DeSantis and Disney over the company’s (tepid) support for LGBTQ rights

Yeah, putting aside the “cheering for mega-corps” angle, Desantis was literally just trying to retaliate because his fascist policies weren’t liked, and install stooges on these boards for the sole purpose of blackmailing Disney into altering its content by holding hostage the things that council controlled. That’s *li…

It’s poetic justice that a mega corp used the policies championed and enacted by the GOP for decades to shut little Ronnie down like a child.

Actually the defense can file a motion to dismiss regardless of the other pending motions. Citing any evidence submitted during discovery when doing so. At which point most judges would look at the massive list of games that have been ignored including massive titles like monster hunter and throw it out with prejudice.

One of things I find interesting and tbh somewhat off-putting about some parts of the Backrooms conmunity is how gamey it is. You “no-clip”, there are “almond water” health items, etc. I am the age where my childhood was analog but my adolescence was digital and when it gets to levels like that it feels creatively…

The Dev should go a step further and rename their game: Deception: Monsters & Energies. A company claiming use of an entire word, that’s not even used in a similar context, or even the fact that the word used is a plural rather than a singular is pretty disappointing to see, and pretty disgusting.

I wish there was a general legal blowback for patent trolls, if the average american can fall victim to the bullshit of the “three strikes rule”, there should be something like this for repeated offenders of patent trolling, the consequences should ramp up.

Hey now, as a white man operating a POC sock puppet account, I care DEEPLY about matters involving my demographic, so long as I can yell at AOC about it.

As a non-white, minority voter

lol. this is the saddest fucking sock puppet I’ve ever even seen attempted. troll harder, kiddo.

Sounds like it might benefit from a Combat Mission style “Everything pauses, both sides issue orders, everything resumes” style mode.

Yep, he has to scramble to save face as he’s already losing ground to 45 in GOP straw polls and now just handed him a platter of “he thought he beat Disney and they kicked Meatball Ron’s ass instead” on the campaign trail

There’s a reason why attempting a crime can still get you charged with that crime.  Intent matters.  Just because they failed doesn’t mean their beliefs and actions aren’t aligned with fascism. It just means they suck at it.

An attempt was made. A failed fascist policy is still a fascist policy.

Like wtf did these fascists think they were going to do on the board, approve scripts? Cancel shows, movies and casting direction? Like seriously what power did they even think they were going to have?

The GOP is playing an old game in a world. This is the Big Tech world of Millennial, Gen Z, Social Media, LGBTQ world and the GOP is still selling Christianity, Bigotry and Reagan era policies to the minority voters in the south. That’s why there was no red wave. You’d think they would have changed their strategy by…

Right? How many Republican lawmakers have changed the rules on their last days when a Democratic regime was coming into power? This is pretty genius really.

I love it. These right wing chuds have been doing the same things for decades and are now clutching their pearls on their fainting couches because someone did it against them.
