Colbert took one hard hit for us. We need to make paramount pay. Trump’s regime is tyranny.

I cancelled my subscription. I keep it around to watch Star Trek mostly, but I can get used copies of the complete season DVDs and do it that way instead. Bonus, I don't have to worry about those getting taken away from me.

I probably can't do that for the newer Trek shows, but what Arr you going to do?

I imagine a good portion of us here gave up streaming services in general long ago

The problem with many of these boycotts is that I'm not using their products or services anyway, so when my transaction is already zero how can I show my displeasure?

An inconvenience fee, for pissing off your fellow lemmings.

Share their scandals on Lemmy and encourage others to boycott.

I'm leeching a family account, but I have made a suggestion.

I want to download an the Star Trek stuff locally anyway for when the Internet is inevitably knocked out during WWIII.

This is the straw? Decades of supporting the neo liberal propaganda model and a soft liberal pundit who never says anything controversial is your line?

I'm glad, but shit we're doomed. Stop giving your money to these corporations that take without adding value. Propaganda dressed up as entertainment isn't worth your money, spend it elsewhere.
