The Nazi police state is here.

And many, many more are going to follow, as Americans learn that they're no longer free to criticize those in power.

And the day will actually come when the notion of someone just being fired for criticizing those in power will seem quaint, since it will then be far more likely that they'll disappear - sucked up into the ever-hungry maw of the corporate police state slave system.

Currently playing through Cyberpunk just to have some kind of preparation of what is eventually to come.

CBS affiliate, which means its a local station. Milwaukee, specifically.

I don't split hairs, CBS is CBS.

It May Not Be Good for America, but It’s Damn Good for CBS

Wow…. It’s like he’s reading for the role of a 1980’s corpo-villain where a rag-tag group of teenagers have to use their movie-thematic skills to overcome his cartoonish villainy.

Coming soon to theatres near you: it’s C(eo)BS.

Summary

Meteorologist Sam Kuffel, who criticized Elon Musk’s “Nazi” salute on social media, has left CBS affiliate WDJT-TV. Her departure has sparked criticism from users who argue it infringes on her freedom of expression.

[–] [email protected] 86 points 3 months ago

They should know that you can only infringe the "conservative" freedom of expression by moderating hate speech/ideas/beliefs, or by calling a Nazi a Nazi. Anyone Left of Nazi in the US has a narrowing window of "freedom of expression".

Because as we all know, the founders were granting Freedom of Speech to Fascist, NOT ANTIFA, just like Jesus wanted. /s
