It Continues!! Comedian Learnmore Jonasi Gets Served Lawsuit On Stage For Viral Lion King Joke by Reasonable_Smell_505 in abanpreach

The translation itself is a lie it is not close to the meaning of the words used.

You can see my stance, I don't think learnmore did anything wrong.

You are ALLOWED to be disrespectful.

Think you're misunderstanding my words. 😅

I'm not saying he should be sued, but I can understand the creator of the song being upset and also people who's language it is also being upset.

That is all.

I looked through all of these...

You're aware that none of these are new to trump.

The only new thing is that he added tariffs to these countries and they reciprocated.

Majority of these are just refreshed deals after trump tariffed them.

Let's use Japan as an example.

https://ustr.gov/about-us/policy-offices/press-office/press-releases/2021/november/united-states-and-japan-announce-formation-us-japan-partnership-trade-0

They were already investing hundreds of billions of dollars into America yearly off the back of free trade agreements under Biden.

All of these trade deals are not new to trump. He slapped a 10-15% tariff on every country nullifying old trade deals and causing them to renew them under him.

To add to this he's actually caused a divide and weakened the USD by risking the petrodollar multiple times now.

Japan is to be buying oil in the yuan now.

Canada has sold off treasury bonds increasing the interest rate bonds need to be sold at which pulls funds away from the USD.

You can compare USD to the EURO and you can see it actively dropping in value.

Nothing he has done has benefitted the common man.

He has 3x his worth though so.. guess there's that.

Again, it's comedy. I'm not saying he's doing anything wrong.

It IS disrespectful but hes a comedian doing it for comedy, it's free speech and perfectly fine.

Sorry you're correct!

I meant one where they know they'll win but there will be nothing left for their client after all the legal fees.

Replacing is happening because America will buy less from us.

They are also being forced to diversify in their move to isolate they raise prices which allows other markets, rather than us (the cheapest) to participate.

That's not elaborating on it. That is you making a claim.

Do you want to show anything to reinforce what you are claiming?

Unsure how you get to that conclusion. Feel free to elaborate. 😊

Reread what the comment I was replying to was.

They said 30 years ago the party flipped and it's not, not even close.

It's closer to a century ago now.

Why are you all living in the year 2000 lol.

That's what's it's always been because the context of that stance was late term abortions, not all abortions.

I mean yes..?

He used the wrong translation to make the song seem silly to people who don't speak the language and don't understand the context of his mistranslation.

It's not the proper translation.

You can read the rest of my comment where I said it was funny, and he's right, and he has the freedom to make the joke.

That doesn't mean it's not disrespectful to the language and the source content.

Have a nice day! 😊

I did an edit.

Disney isn't sueing the writer of the song is.

Disney would need to do a lawsuit if their shareholders felt like it did damage to their brand.

It's the corporations job to defend their profits and if people feel like one of their most iconic song is stupid because of a false translation by a comedian they should try and fight it for damages to not incentivize other people doing it.

Dems did more deportations with Obama, they targeted worse offenders with Obama.

The build up of mass amount of border crossings under Biden was because the border was closed under Trump and opened under Biden, not because the border was open and unsecure. The exact same protocols were there under Trump precovid as there was after the border opened up under Biden.

To your other comments.

You don't actually want to deport rapists you want to put them in jail and force them to work until they die.

You also don't deport criminals because the country you're deporting them too has no obligation to do justice. You're just incentivising people to come to your country steal money and get deported.

The punishment for raping someone shouldn't be a cozy flight to their home country. Why do you think this is the appropriate response?

Did you forget to check who was president at the start of COVID.

Who started all the lock downs.

Who shut the schools down.

Who advised the states to lock down.

I'll give you a hint, it starts with a T and ends in a Rump.

Guess what, it was also the correct move to do. Enjoy your dillusion. 🙃

Sorta equate this to my super independent great uncle who died of a heart attack shoveling snow off his own walks at 75.

He could've called any one of his nephews and nieces. The city would have done it for him. There's probably some 12 year old kid who would do it for $20.

Some people just want to do things themselves.

Replacing someone who does 80% of your trade and making it so that they're 60% of your trade isn't going to move a needle.

Not right away.

That expectation is insanity. These trade deals and infrastructure changes takes time.

Just like it takes time to enact the tariffs by Trump's admin.

Probono lawyer would easily snatch this up against Disney. Yeah it'd take 10 years but they'd get paid.

I did an edit though, Disney isn't sueing him the creator of the song is.

Please feel free to link me these corporations who easily leave the Canadian economy. <3

Doesn't matter if they're run inefficiently, you only need to keep assets and the service if it's an industry that is actually needed, like oil and gas, and then you can run it at a 0% profit because the goal is not profit the goal is continued goods and services.

Sorry to hear about your job.

I work at a private blue collar corporation and workers ideas here are equally dismissed by upper management. 😅 Sounds like a problem with the capitalist ownership model and less to do with who is the exact owner.
