She simply reposted a Rolling Stone quote to her stories from an April 2025 interview where Kimmel told the outlet: \u201cI don\u2019t think anybody should be canceled. I really don\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">That\u2019s it. No caption, no added commentary. Which is exactly the point. Curtis has been outspoken before \u2014 earlier this summer, she bluntly warned that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/articles\/jamie-lee-curtis-thinks-colbert-165500209.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:Stephen Colbert\u2019s cancellation;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Stephen Colbert\u2019s cancellation<\/a> \u201cwasn\u2019t just about ratings\u201d and flagged the broader cuts to NPR and PBS as part of a dangerous pattern. But here? She said nothing. The hosts of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/tv\/articles\/view-hosts-wanted-speak-jimmy-190202090.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:The View also opted to stay silent;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The View also opted to stay silent<\/a> following Kimmel\u2019s dismissal. And in this climate, that silence reads louder than anything.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">More from SheKnows<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">It\u2019s hard not to notice the shift. Colbert\u2019s cancellation came just as CBS was pushing through a merger with Skydance Media, led by David Ellison, a Trump ally whose name has been floating around with <a href=\"https:\/\/fair.org\/home\/as-ellison-buys-out-tiktok-us-moves-toward-one-party-media\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:talks of a TikTok sale;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">talks of a TikTok sale<\/a>. NPR\u2019s federal funding was stripped. Now Kimmel, who has long been one of Trump\u2019s late-night critics, is suspended indefinitely. Each decision comes packaged as financial or procedural. But Curtis\u2019 decision to simply reshare Kimmel\u2019s own words frames it differently: this isn\u2019t just about programming. It\u2019s about who gets to speak \u2014 and who doesn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">That\u2019s why the post lands as chilling. Because Curtis knows better than most what happens when institutions get chipped away, one by one. After Trump\u2019s 2024 win, she addressed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/news\/jamie-lee-curtis-message-fellow-173822809.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:parents of trans kids directly;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">parents of trans kids directly<\/a>, admitting that she was scared for her daughter Ruby\u2019s future. She encouraged families to \u201cfight against tyranny, one day at a time.\u201d The stakes, for her, have always been deeply personal.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Curtis didn\u2019t have to spell it out \u2014 because what\u2019s happening is already clear. Sharing Kimmel\u2019s words without commentary lands like its own kind of alarm. We\u2019re watching the ground shift in real time, and pretending otherwise feels impossible.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Before you go, click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/actresses-over-50-more-successful-211800930.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:here;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a> to see actresses over 50 who are more successful now than ever.<\/p>\n<p><a data-ylk=\"ct:story;elm:img;itc:0;\" class=\"stretched-box\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/actresses-over-50-more-successful-211800930.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"720\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/d471f4ecadf673f30818822a1d9d7bfa.jpeg\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Best of SheKnows<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Sign up for <a href=\"https:\/\/cloud.email.sheknows.com\/signup\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:SheKnows&#039; Newsletter;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">SheKnows&#8217; Newsletter<\/a>.
