Why the fuck are tv shows making political donations?
Everything has to be political. Can't eat a Chick-fil-A sandwich without buying some Oreos to balance it out... 🙄
The food stuff really bothers me, like I don't have to consume media. Haven't watched Handmaid's Tale, don't really care. But you know what I do need to consume? Food. And here they are, making big political statements & donations as corporations.
Idk how to go about enforcing this, but I've got a great idea: how about you shut up & make my food?? Pass a bill, business entities in the food industry can't make large political donations or publicize positions. Call it the Shut Up And Make My Food Bill. Idk, really basic rough idea, it's a WIP.
Better idea. Let's just actually take money out of politics. No PACs, no lobbying, no political donations of any kind. Make it impossible to enrich yourself by becoming a politician.
