the problem is US politicians including the Trump admin are sometimes using anti-liberalism measures to do so. 

The time for half measures and indecision is over. We have to flood the zone at muzzle velocity. Go after the systemic rot down to the root. From the career beurocrat  to the ideologue university admin who corrupt our youth. Half measures is what got us here in the first place.

But the President can't go around getting politically-slanted talk-shows canceled just because they're critical of him and holding up corporate mergers of media companies waiting for guarantees to reduce the political slants of some of their shows because the criticize the POTUS.   This is authoritarianism.

Where are you getting this BS from?

The stupid conspiracy theories peddled by the left-wing loonies are just that; the fact that they claim Trump somehow got Colbert cancelled doesn't mean he did, or that there is a shred of actual evidence for that. 

The reality is that his show sucked and was losing money.

An $8 billion merger between Skydance Media and Paramount Global received regulatory approval Thursday from the Federal Communications Commission in a deal that has raised alarm about free speech and government intrusion into the media.

Chair Brendan Carr said in announcing the approval that Skydance had agreed to address Trump administration concerns about what it sees as media bias at the CBS network.

Skydance committed to adopt measures to “root out” media bias that had undermined trust in the news media, Carr said.

“I welcome Skydance’s commitment to make significant changes at the once storied CBS broadcast network,” Carr said. “In particular, Skydance has made written commitments to ensure that the new company’s programming embodies a diversity of viewpoints from across the political and ideological spectrum.”

So, you admit you don't have anything to back up the other thing you said about cancelling a show?

Also, nothing you posted supports this: "because the criticize the POTUS.""

The public safety excuse is a lie.  People complained so they cancelled/denied the permits based on public pressure in order to be politically correct.   The government is now deciding what speech should and shouldn't be allowed to be said in PUBLIC venues.   Maybe a whole bunch of people in Canada don't agree with his views, that's fine, but anti-LGBT and anti-abortion speech based on mainstream Christian religious beliefs is Charter-protected speech, as is pro-Trump speech.  This isn't the USSR.   Or maybe it's slowly creeping closer to it?...

These are the quotes this artist has said.   These beliefs are pretty standard for ardent Christians:

 

• "The demonic, sick, and twisted agenda of drag queens is perverting the minds of children." (Tweet from 2024)
• “The radical left is pushing perverse ideologies on our children, from drag queen story hours to transgender indoctrination in schools."
• "Pride Month is a demonic agenda that is hell-bent on destroying our culture and perverting our children. It’s time to stand up and say ENOUGH!” (Tweet from June 2024)

The whacky part is fining a church $2500 for holding a worship event. Its vile and very commiesque. 

Anyone else getting sick of vile leftists pulling this shit all the time?

You spilled blood, died and spent trillions fighting leftism around the world and you STILL can't do anything to squelch it at home?

Why...how? It defies reason.

The leftists switched from class struggle to identity politics because they couldn't defeat capitalism, but they can bully people including politicians and businesses into submission by accusing them of being racist, sexist etc if they don't do and say the right thing.

If you worship Trump supporters, you just defined yourself as a traitor. How the hell can you pretend a singer that supports a leader who despises every premise of Christianity is a fellow of that religion.
Disgusting.

The hypocritical reasoning one uses to claim prevention of public disorder is an attack on religion.

Virtually all of the current strife comes from people trying to force their beliefs, values and agendas on those who don't share them, and likely never will. We already have an app for that and there's no need to invent another one.

The only caveat is not breaking the law or hurting other people... it also includes weaponizing the law to deny or limit existing freedoms without compelling reason.

IMO, the worst thing you can do (for purely selfish reasons) is allow threats of violence to impinge on the rights of others... meaning those you don't agree with. This works both ways and failing to acknowledge that as a reality means that it automatically works against you at some point in the future. The great see-saw of political reality will certainly come knocking and it will be your turn to ask for the same consideration you seek to deny others of.

It should be motivational but never is. Those who hold a magnifying glass over ants of a different colour should remember that the sun shines on them too.

Framing this is some kind of foggy leftist strategy reveals a misunderstanding of how issues play out in the public sphere.

Right-wing and left-wing politics couldn't defeat neoliberalism because there's no platform, or there hasn't been a platform, upon which the public could discuss it... Meaningfully. 

If you want evidence of that, look at how global trade is being discussed now.  And these are not left-wing people discussing it. 

Furthermore, identity issues are about rights... Individual rights is Not traditionally a domain of leftist, socialist thought. They're more concerned about economic equality. 

When the US was framed, they addressed the primary issue of individual rights at that time: the right to worship under their chosen religion.  So identity rights are built into the American public discourse.

Discussion of the Israel situation is the endgame of the current political confusion.  Right-wing, left-wing.... Who supports Israel?  It's all over the map.

The problem with Marxist is that we actually do not have class system here in America unlike Europe. So class struggle whose society is premise on power, changed into a racial intersectional theory of identity politics. 

Logically, the highest position on this leader board is a Palestinian transvestite women who happens to be black.

1) No? There is no defined monarchy but there is definitely a class of wealthy Elite.

2) Class struggle goes on.  Trump himself uses the word Elite.  Who are these Elites?

Can I say the same about any Canadian who supports and promotes pro-Islam views, also being a traitor? Not just to Canada, but to civilization.

The irony is that these things are all said daily by Muslim imams throughout Canada, and the Left does not care in the slightest.
