Disney deleted a Thread because people kept putting anti-fascist quotes from its movies in the replies (www.theverge.com)

”Share a Disney quote that sums up how you’re feeling right now!”

That’s what Disney posted on Threads the other day, and people immediately replied with lines from Star Wars, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, and even Mary Poppins. The throughline between all the quotes: they were pretty pointedly anti-fascist and clearly aimed at the current administration

Ok now apply the same kind of criticism to the anti-liberal memes you're consuming on the internet. Who do those benefit? Who benefits from dividing people?

Where does this stuff originate from? Some millionaire trust fund baby influencers on youtube or twitch? Why is this Hasan guy on the front page of a website owned by Jeff Bezos?

Keep on repeating the bullshit that Jeff Bezos wants you to about liberals being the real enemy. You're soooo much smarter than everyone else LOL. You're really "fighting the power" when you consume the content the billionaires want you to consume.
