I don't give a fuck. "oh but my shows, oh they will close into a walled garden". Who cares. There's lots of good, if not better content elsewhere. Hell, there's lots of better things to do than sit and just consume the garbage they spew.

Except these are more than just content companies. They are empires with tons of shell companies and child companies under their roof.

And it giving any company that much control of a market is a death sentence. If they begin to crash, the entire economy around that will crash. And it will ripple.

And yet, a combined Paramount and Warner Bros Discovery would only be a tiny fraction of the size of Disney.

Except this could kill Star Trek.

On one hand that's sad but on the other we have hundreds of hours of trek to fall back on when and if that happens
