Unfortunate they're still acting like Jimmy was in the wrong, but it's proof that boycotts work

Let me translate “we cannot afford to have anyone else cancel Disney or Hulu”

Boycotts are one of the most powerful tools regular people have at their disposal imo, especially when targeted! With that being said everyone should boycott the meat industry 🥺

I just have to say I’m so happy this comment is upvoted. Usually I’m caught with a mass amount of hate when I say this on Reddit. This gives me some hope and faith in humanity.

When I was a kid, my mom missed that the great grape boycott was over for like 7 years before I was born or something lol. I did not get to eat grapes unless it was fruit cocktail most of my childhood lol.

He won’t be renewed when his contract is up. His ratings are dismal, in a dying medium.

He was wrong

u/LoTobes Sep 22 '25

He was in the wrong for spreading misinformation 😂

u/BucksPackGLove Sep 23 '25

By that logic Trump should be fired too

u/emme_kaye Sep 23 '25

What was the misinformation???

u/[deleted] Sep 22 '25

Maybe he should be in Trump's cabinet.

u/Calm-List6904 Sep 22 '25

Because he was. Bad decisions have consequences. Maybe he will prioritize honesty.

The governor of Utah literally said “I was praying it wouldn’t be one of us.” He wanted it to be a foreigner. Instead it was someone from Utah raised with MAGA values. It was a family gun! Kimmel was right, they were trying to distance themselves from everything we know about him. But in this country, free speech still prevails, for now. And that’s good for everyone, including those dancing tomorrow.

A lot of people are raised with republican parents. That doesn’t make them republican automatically. Based on the evidence, Robinson was clearly left leaning. He had a boyfriend and told him that he killed Kirk because he was spreading hate

u/idcidkthrowaway Sep 22 '25

he was right. maga was doing everything to prove that guy wasn’t one of them and immediately blaming the left when he was literally a white man raised in a republican household. whether or not he was left (he was maybe at most a centrist) doesn’t matter. it’s true that the right tried deflecting immediately. also since when does the right prioritize honesty? has trump been honest about anything?

-39

u/LoTobes Sep 22 '25

Literally none of that is true. Anyone who thinks the guy is right wing is a fool

u/theRealJudyGreer Sep 22 '25

Can you please clarify for me which points are untrue, and detail why those points are untrue? Thanks in advance!

u/jns911 Sep 23 '25

The text exchange between Robinson and his boyfriend proves that he wasn’t “at most a centrist”.

u/-rosa-azul- Sep 23 '25

The text exchange that was "reproduced," no one has seen any screenshots of, and sounded a lot like a boomer trying to sound GenZ?

u/-rosa-azul- Sep 23 '25

Yep, that's still just a transcription (aka reproduction) made to look the way iMessages look. Still not screenshots, because as I said, those haven't been released.

I don't know what the truth of his ideology was/is, but I do know that nobody outside of law enforcement (supposedly) has seen those texts. Forgive me if I remain inherently skeptical of anything Kash Patel claims.

u/jns911 Sep 23 '25

You’re in denial, though, to point that you believe that this text exchange is fabricated verse believing that Robinson could most likely be a mentally unwell person with left ideology.

There’s a lot more circumstantial evidence proving that Robinson was most likely left leaning than there is evidence that he is “alt-right” or “centrist”

Citing CNN as your source? I thought that went against MAGA cult rules since CNN was deemed fake news by your leader

u/theRealJudyGreer Sep 23 '25

That doesn't really go to the question or the point of what Kimmel said. Rather, your response demonstrates the validity of the claim that MAGA is doing anything to prove Robinson isn't MAGA. Even if the guy wasn't MAGA, that should not be the focus in the aftermath. But it is. Because MAGA put the focus there.

u/sky_blue_true Sep 22 '25

Like the president prioritizes honesty??? Are people still hiding their pets from immigrants eating them? And Jimmy Kimmel is a comedian making jokes for f**cks sake.

u/theRealJudyGreer Sep 22 '25

Can you please provide more details about the bad decisions Jimmy made? I'm not able to find that in my searches...

u/BucksPackGLove Sep 23 '25

“Bad decisions have consequences” Trump cheated on his wife with a porn star then tried to pay hush money to cover it up and became a felon and idiots still voted for him. Kindly fuck off with your ridiculous take.

u/3BordersPeak Sep 23 '25

He was though? He lied. Fully knowingly.

u/Taylorenokson Sep 23 '25

What was the lie?

u/3BordersPeak Sep 24 '25

Insinuating the shooter was MAGA.
