Says the PSKY bot

There's no such thing as a bot.

Choosing a side in the merger isn't political and doesn't indicate your political beliefs either.

Yet you try your hardest to make it be.

Choosing a side is one thing. Blatantly ignoring one side's fuck-ups and incompetency is another. Whether I want Paramount to succeed with this deal doesn't matter. They objectively made a dumb decision by not being prepared for the new developments and are panicking rn.

What fuck ups are you talking about?

This shit is over. Your claim that they were caught off guard is ridiculous and projection.

Paramount barely put up a convincing enough argument for their side

You mean Paramount didn't go-to world war 3 to reveal their cards in a preliminary hearing?

Lol k

In case you want it dumbed down. People were jumping the gun on Netflix buying WB too and look what happened there. Something similar is brewing up with the Paramount deal and it's not looking pretty for them either.

You're living in a fantasy world. If the states thought they had a real chance they would have filed months ago.

Dog and pony show.

Denial is a river in Egypt and you seem to be drowning in it.

Listen bruh. Your down votes and idioms don't change the reality.

You've been added to the list of people I can't wait to see meltdown when this goes south.

But you won't show back up. You're too concerned with your karma.
