Jimmy Kimmel went off the air for a few days. People voted with their wallets. They cancelled their Disney + subscriptions, they sent a loud clear message. Jimmy Kimmel is now back on the air.

Apple pulls key apps from the App Store that anonymously and safely allows communities some semblance of agency against the cruelty of this administration. Imagine the response being billions of dollars in returned Apple merchandise, overnight, cancelled Apple related subscriptions and iPhone orders.

Apple is not your enemy. Disney is not your enemy. Tim Cook is not your enemy. Google is not your enemy. But they wield power over our culture that can be reversed and channeled appropriately. We always say, money talks, people with money have the power, etc. Collectively we could easily use that as leverage, and put them into the appropriate position to say Fuck you, make me.

But we’re not doing that. We are bitching about how Tim Cook is bending the knee, online, dopamine achieved. My wife always reminds me about pointing fingers, there are three fingers pointing back.
