You are mistaken. The kid may have had a republican family, but obviously he was a left winger. Kimmel lied. If you’re pushing his same narrative, then you are lying.
The current administration's use of the FCC pressuring ABC to suspend is definitely wrong, but it isn't quite as evil and antithetical to the spirit of America as the previous administration's use of the FBI to silence and deplatform regular American citizens from social media over posts about Covid or other social issues of the time. Kimmel knew what he was doing and he forced his employer into a corner and is now paying the price, unlike old Aunty Jane who had the temerity to question the origins of a virus that shut down the world and lost her access to Facebook at the behest of the federal government. Also, if we're fighting for the right of social commentators to tell lies about a shooting death that shocked the world, I'm sure that Alex Jones would like a word. Left needs to be consistent with our outrage imo.
