anything that could even be remotely construed as calling for or encouraging violence against him for his racist, Nazi assholery, he would squeal and whine and we would see his constipated scowl all over the faux news Nazisphere to hell with him for being the putrid little shit that he is.

(63,225 posts)I can find the link if needed, but one of the unfortunate points made was that Fucker's show is pulling in more ad revenue now than before advertisers started dropping him due to his bigoted propaganda and hate speech.
Fresh Air's guest made the point that the businesses that remain with him know exactly what he says, and they don't care. He has a colossal audience (of drooling assholes, yes, but an audience), so advertisers are wiling to pay to reach that massive audience.
It's appalling and vile and a sad commentary on capitalism and humanity in general, but it's a fact, and Fucker will never, ever rein himself in.

(4,428 posts)He has always been oh-so-careful to never step over the line of criminal incitement, so he will never be prosecuted.
On the other hand, a MASSIVE civil case can and must be brought against him and Fox. The survivors need time to heal, but this has to happen. And it will work.
