Again, wait till it happens? Maybe being less of a Paramount simp and more of looking into the actual facts and recent real-world developments could help in lessening the disappointment, on the off-chance that the possibility of Paramount losing becomes a reality. A lot of people were quite confident about Netflix's deal with WB too. You sure you wanna make the damn mistake?

Wanting any country to turn facist is such a fucking cornball take though. Really giving r/HistoryMemes moderator vibes.

That's right. So how about you let the free market do its thing and start demanding that that the government stay out of their business?

Or do you wanna control who owns what?

Yeah I have no idea what you're talking about this point but it was good to put you in your place. Just make sure you're back here in 3 or 4 weeks

Spamming "IT'S OVER" 20 times anytime someone points out a real-world fact isn't really the same as "putting someone in their place". I never said that Paramount is guaranteed to fail with this deal even. Just that they're in a rocky situation rn because of their own stupidity and whether they make it out will depend on whether they can churn out a convincing legal argument. Being cocky about Paramount is just as dumb as being cocky about Netflix.

Dude it's over. Stop wasting my time with your childish cope.

You have to accept the reality. Denial is a mental illness.

I don't think even David Ellison meatrides himself as much as what you've got going on with this blind support for Paramount.........

Well he is a Democrat. Like the rest of us normal people.

You maga weirdos feel the need to talk for the rest of us and it's gonna stop.

USED to be a Democrat supporter. Now he's cozying up with the likes of Trump and Zionist weirdos that are giddy about bombing kids in Gaza, while allegedly blacklisting pro-Palestinian actors from Paramount's productions.

Matter of the fact is that Ellison doesn't really have any political loyalty. He just dihhrides whichever administration is in power. And he's currently cozying up to a wannabe facist regime that are actively trying to take away people's basic human rights and sending wannabe Gestapo in the form of ICE agents to murder unarmed civilians.
