I didn't say they had to reshoot the whole thing. I assume they had to pay people to do the commercial from the ground up and don't have the convenient person who can edit something that looks good enough sitting around. It's safe to say it would cost them more money to have it changed. Anything related to commercials is expensive.

Antifa is the far left or alt left because they are comprised entirely of communists, progressives, socialists and probably a few democrats in there who attack any people who lean to the right and in a lot of cases, just random people who they think are nazis because of hair cuts. Also, I didn't say that antifa is the typical leftist but the stormtroopers of the left. Antifa hates free speech. You can quote the dumbass write of the handbook all you want but it doesn't change reality in terms of what antifa is made up of and what they are. You might to reread that part about what I saying is the typical leftist. 

What do you mean, "from the ground up"?  All they had to do was add whatever the hell an "identification tag" is to the advertisement.  I'm not in the TV business, so if you or anyone else reading this can correct my impression please do so with specifics, but it doesn't seem to me like adding a bit of text to the bottom of the screen would take that much expertise and be that expensive. 

And again, when you call antifa "the stormtroopers of the left" this sounds to me as if you're implying a certain amount of coordination, or that one could be considered working "for" another or at least having similar goals that they agree on acceptable means for achieving, which I don't think is the case.  I figure "that part about what I saying is the typical leftist" is referring to "stereotypical leftist trying to shut down opposing points of view from having a platform to speak", but there's a pretty substantial difference between "boycotts, angry letters, or even peaceful protest" and what antifa has done.  There are demonstrations that get out of hand on both the left and the right—whose intentions were peaceful—but antifa (from what little I have heard) sometimes goes out with the specific mission of violence with the aim of suppressing free speech that they dislike.  That may fit your caricature of everyone left of Pat Robinson but that is not the reality.  Private entities are under no obligation to give soapboxes to nasty ideas, and trying to talk them out of doing so is another form of free speech, but if someone does want to help some nutjob exercise legitimate free speech in front of an audience they shouldn't be afraid of physical consequences for doing so or helping someone else do so. 

I mean, you can disagree with Greenpeace without equating them with the Earth Liberation Front.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
