Channels & viewing

What is it with all the gay commercials and the commercial celebrating pubic hair?   It is totally unnecessary and not something my kids need to see.   If there is not a way to block, I suppose PLUTO and any other channel carrying this garbage will be deleted.   I wonder if I would have the same issue on FireTV?

Odds are, changing devices will have no effect. Most, if not all ads, on most services are 100% under the control of the service. Complain to Pluto.

Should also mention that some ads may not even be under the control of Pluto, but are controlled, at least in part, by the channel owner.

Just as a side note, Pluto is owned by Paramount Global.

I don’t want to watch heterosexuals make out on TV…I don’t want to watch 2 guys making out either! I’m so sick of hearing about “women pooping, HIV, pubic hair & how sexy fat is”. This PC **bleep** is outta control!

I have tried to no success. You could suggest this to Pluto. But also to Roku. There is also a request to do something similar here on the “Suggest a Feature” forum that you can upvote and leave feedback for: https://community.roku.com/t5/Suggest-a-Feature/Ability-to-Block-LGBTQP-content/m-p/1014865#M8868

Whoever the degenerate is that floods Roku and Pluto with this gay perversion seems to heavily target all Conservative programs.  Such as Real America's Voice and OAN.  The LFS6B show really gets hammered by this **bleep**.  I dropped Pluto for this reason and if I get an alternative to Roku it's gone!!!!!

No reason to complain to Roku. They have zero control over the content on 3rd party channels (and almost all channels on Roku devices are operated by a 3rd party). Since providers like Pluto offer their content for free in return for viewing ads, it's highly unlikely you can get them to give the user any control over those ads. 

I too would prefer not to see any of those ads, but the only way to watch something ad-free is to pay for such a service. Even Amazon and some other providers have paid tiers with ads.

There are some alternative ways to watch both RAV and OAN on your Roku device.

For OAN, try using the free channel/app KlowdTV.

--If you want to subscribe to OAN, consider doing it via Klowd since owned by Herring Networks and has special pricing of 2.50/month.  Otherwise can watch the encore OAN for free.

For RAV, try using the free RAV standalone channel/app or installing Rumble and then subscribing to both RAV and LFS6B.  LFS6B has their own livestream (both an AM version with Damon and then the regular PM version will all the guys) if you watch on Rumble that does not have commercials but instead shows them behind the scenes while the ads are playing on the networks.
