    My “I strive to put humanity above all considerations” t-shirt is making people ask me a lot of questions already answered by the t-shirt

    What the fuck?

    Apparently I missed this story. Not really surprising though. Remember that time… last year… when Disney outmaneuvered and embarrassed the entire legal team dispatched by a certain Florida governor? I guess my brain sucks because I think normal people see that and go “ha! Suck a fat one DeStinky!” and I just think “wait… how and why is a corporation able to totally outflank and embarrass an apparently determined state actor?” Even if he’s a giant sack of dogshit, which he is, it should still raise a million red flags when corporations are outwardly flexing the power they hold.

    Oh well, this is probably all fine.

      Hey even a broken clock is right twice a day. Disney clearly shouldn’t be that powerful, but at least this one instance was for some decent stuff

    “Disney has decided to waive its right to arbitration” means “we will 100% try this bullshit again, but one bad media wave costs more than this settlement ever could.”

    They are only doing this because this whole thing went above the media hype meter threshold.

      turning a big dial that says “human meat grinder” on it and constantly looking back at the audience for approval like a contestant on the price is right

      Corporate lawyers are Goons according the Graeber. Workers who only exist at one company because they exist at the competition. The corporate equivalent of a standing army to rival the neighboring kingdoms.

    That DiscussingFilm account cracks me up because 99% of the time it uses very neutral tone but occasionally they let their interests slip. Big Wallace and Gromit fan

    I’m not a lawyer, but courts should be allowed to submit vibes as evidence. Like, the case may be unrelated to it, but disney did (insert one of the MANY shitty things disney has done)

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 --

-- 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. --
