They cancelled Colbert?!! Wtf?

… Trump Had Nothing to Do With It! (Rrrright)

So… they axed Colbert. The one late-night host with enough spine left to roast the powers that be, canceled faster than a book at a Florida school board meeting. But don’t worry, folks — Trump definitely had nothing to do with it. Just like he had nothing to do with Epstein’s little island getaway, right? Total coincidence. Just like the Diet Coke button in the Oval Office was “purely for hydration purposes.”

America: where billionaires get to buy their own spaceships, fascism gets a glow-up, and satire gets quietly euthanized.

Meanwhile, corporate media execs are probably having a celebratory “neutrality” brunch, sipping mimosas while democracy chokes on a dry bagel. They’ll tell us Colbert’s ratings dipped, or audiences are “changing” — because yes, obviously, people LOVE a world without punchlines while living under a punchline presidency.

But sure, nothing to see here. Just like there was nothing to see in that little “perfect phone call” with Ukraine. Or that small “attempted coup” on January 6th. It’s all just good people on both sides of… late-night programming decisions.

Guess we’ll all have to turn to TikTok now for our political satire… at least until they ban that too.

Because when democracy dies in darkness… they don’t even bother leaving the Late Show lights on...
