Donald Trump supporters appear to have quit Netflix en masse after one of the online streaming giant’s co-founders publicly threw his backing behind Kamala Harris.

Reed Hastings, chairman of Netflix and a longtime Democratic supporter, announced his endorsement on July 22, later telling The Information he’d also donated some $7 million to the Harris campaign.

Soon after, the hashtag #CancelNetflix started trending on X, in many cases accompanied by photos of people shuttering their accounts, and by July 26 the streaming service had suffered its worst spike in subscription cancellations so far this year, according to Bloomberg.

The rate of account closure, thought to have averaged out at 2.8 percent over that month, apparently even beat that which followed Netflix’s decision to phase out its most basic subscription tier in July last year............

Just want to point out the obvious, even the "cancel culture" accusation by Republicans was an admission of guilt.

I read that this image is all over FB today, and that MAGAs actually think it’s real. Even with this huge AI tell on Trump’s hand.

Movie wasn’t great but nowhere near as bad as the hate it received suggested
====================


Paul Feig said in a new interview with The Guardian that a lot of the vitriol he faced online during the release of his female “Ghostbusters” reboot in summer 2016 stemmed from supporters of Donald Trump, who infamously called out the reboot in a video post. The film starred Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones as the eponymous paranormal investigators.

“The political climate of the time was really weird, with Hillary Clinton running for office in 2016,” Feig said. “There were a lot of dudes looking for a fight. When I was getting piled on, on Twitter, I’d go back and see who they were. So many were Trump supporters. Then Trump came out against us. He was like: ‘They’re remaking Indiana Jones without Harrison Ford. You can’t do that. And now they’re making ‘Ghostbusters’ with only women. What’s going on?’ and got all upset.”

“Everybody went forking cannibal,” Feig continued. “It turned the movie into a political statement, as if to say: ‘If you’re pro-women, you’re going to go see this. If you’re not, then …’ I didn’t think it mattered at all that the main characters were women, but people brought a lot of baggage.”…….

This ties into the fear that drives the Republican Party and MAGA which is almost one and the same. They are just so scared as to be mentally and emotionally unbalanced.

I honestly don’t remember Trump saying anything about Ghostbusters but wouldn’t be surprised

The Kaepernick kneeling issue/outrage didn’t really explode until Trump commented on it
 
Rudy Giuliani allegedly sent a text message begging Michigan lawmakers to overturn the 2020 election result – but got the wrong number.

The embattled former New York City mayor, who is also facing trial accused of conspiring to subvert Arizona’s 2020 presidential election results, has a long history of technological gaffes and humiliating mishaps.

The latest embarrassing example was detailed in special counsel Jack Smith’s legal briefing, filed in federal court in Washington DC on Wednesday, which outlines the federal election interference case against Donald Trump in the most thorough detail to date.

include the fullest account and evidence of what happened in the lead-up to the election and Trump’s alleged attempt to subvert the result as if it were an opening statement to a jury.

“On December 7, CC1 attempted to send P37 a message (though failed because he typed the wrong number into his phone),” Smith’s document says.

The message Giuliani was allegedly attempting to send read: “So I need you to pass a joint resolution from the Michigan legislature that states that, *the election is in dispute,* there’s an ongoing investigation by the Legislature, and * the Electors sent by Governor Whitmer are not the official Electors of the State of Michigan and do not fall within the Safe Harbor deadline of Dec 8 under Michigan Law.”………

 
Watching Rudy's daughter, Caroline, on CNN. She's supporting Harris and blames Trump for the mess he's is. She's got a powerful story.

I read the article she wrote, but it's devoid of the detail I'd have liked.

How does a man go from successfully prosecuting the New York Mafia to literally melting down on live TV?

Yeah, I've wondered that, but if you're doing Trump's bidding, even before the elections, it's tough to break from his spell, especially when Trump knows all of your skeletons.

By the choices Giuliani made and the actions he took. Trump didn't make Giuliani a mess. Giuliani, and only Giuliani, made Giuliani a mess. Giuliani could have chosen to walk a way from Trump any time he wanted. Giuliani chose not to do that.

No one can have any influence over us or cast any spells on us that we don't want. Giuliani is not a victim of Trump. He is an accomplice of Trump.

we all know at least one person that does something stupid, and instead of admitting it, they dig themselves deeper and deeper to the point where they dug so deep, they can't admit it at this point.

Oh I know more than a few like that. While it's true we're all responsible for the decisions we make, we also are people who can be put in positions where without realizing it, they're in positions where it's very difficult to get out of and some perceive the situation as having very limited choices. It's why people with security clearances can be made super vulnerable, especially when considering financial situation. Training requires that people with security clearance report those making unusually large purchases, in massive debt or something like that can be very vulnerable to actors who would attempt to harm the government.

Well, yeah. I'm not saying Rudy isn't responsible for himself. I'm just gobsmacked that someone competent enough to bring down Mafia dons somehow loses all track of how to do the thing...how to set up a press conference, how to build and file a case, how to NOT use cheap shoeblack on his head.

I guess we should be thankful. The Rudy of the 80's-90's could have helped Cheato accomplish a lot more evil.
