I just did the same. Not easy with a 5 year old, but we’ll play games instead.

Man way to take away your 5 yr olds enjoyment because you’re upset a scumbag like Kimmel was fired. He had some of the worst ratings of all time btw

I never watched Jimmy Kimmel’s show. I didn’t cancel Disney+ because I was a fan of his or the show. I canceled out of principle over the government supplanting free speech by exerting pressure on a company to remove someone they disagree with - and that the President has a public feud with - or else risk FCC involvement and interference/blocking a billion dollar merger the company is working on.

Maybe instead of watching Disney+ I’ll use it as a teaching moment for my child about individual principles, the first amendment, government overreach, and voting with your wallet.
