MoistMogwai @lemmy.world I watched that clip on Kimmel. I don't normally watch but I like Bill Burr. Kimmel got really uncomfortable after he said Free Luigi. Not just like the network telling him, but in a way that seemed like Kimmel doesn't understand why people like Luigi.

Kimmel gets it...his advertising people won't be happy about it though.

It feels humid but the sun is shining on your face. Your feet are wet if you are barefoot.
Then turn around, that’s what a rainbow is

As if. It meant something. But it’s just rain and sun, moon and stars.
You can almost feel the bass

buddascrayon @lemmy.world Kimmel is really quiet leftist, so he gets it. But he's also beholden to network executives who only understand money and the things that make them money. And advertisers don't like Luigi or the idea that CEOs are disposable.

That doesn't make him a bad guy, but based on what I've seen of Kimmel it's entirely possible that he would not understand

Definitely believes you shouldn't kill people.
He's not angry or upset enough, he's safe and comfortable
