    I watched that clip on Kimmel. I don’t normally watch but I like Bill Burr. Kimmel got really uncomfortable after he said Free Luigi. Not just like the network telling him, but in a way that seemed like Kimmel doesn’t understand why people like Luigi.

        There’s lots of things I don’t understand.

        Like the color of thought and the sounds of a rainbow.

      Kimmel is really quiet leftist, so he gets it. But he’s also beholden to network executives who only understand money and the things that make them money. And advertisers don’t like Luigi or the idea that CEOs are disposable.

        Kimmel is a brogressive limousine liberal.

        That doesn’t make him a bad guy, but based on what I’ve seen of Kimmel it’s entirely possible that he would not understand

        I think a lot of rich leftists are hoping that shit holds together long enough that they can die comfortable, even if it means poor people have to suffer decades.
