Whatever you say. I’m not the one blindly hating an entire class of people without treating each one as an individual, much like a bigot. Your blind hatred is demonstrated by the fact you act like giving away a third of her net worth - even after accounting for her gains - is just a “tax dodge.”

I get the anger and share it to an extent, but not to the point of blind rage that makes one no better than any other bigot.

Again with the uninformed judgemental bullshit. They married before Bezos even founded Amazon. I’d suggest informing yourself before making an ass of yourself yet again, but I know I’d be wasting my time. I’ve got better things to do, so consider yourself blocked.

You’d know trolling. I was in a rush & couldn’t remember how to refer to a second person in a response at that moment. Deal with it. Or don’t, I don’t GAF.

Grow TF up & get with reality, dude. She’s working within a system she didn’t create. When you effect a complete overhaul of how the country works, we’ll talk. Until then, she’s doing much more good than most - certainly more than the bullshit your unrealistic excuses to be judgemental are.

Keeping such a black & white view of things makes you no better than MAGAts, IMHO. There’s nuance to everything, and if you can’t be bothered to consider it then YOU are making yourself part of the problem.

If you bothered to look into things & think them through, you’d see she’s using her wealth to generate even more money she can donate to good causes. If she just gave away everything she got out of the marriage right away, she’d be approaching the bottom of her barrel right about now instead of having much more to contribute to good causes as she now does.

Step back from the anger, and get a bigger view of things, eh?

There are a tiny proportion of relatively decent ones, such as Mackenzie Scott (Bezos’ ex-wife), so I would only ask that such a hunt not be completely indiscriminate.

But they’d better not edit The Don, amirite? What a fucking nightmare this all is.

I wish I had the kind of time and money required for effing around like this.

Well, that’s good to know. Bought the app like a decade ago, sucks to see it atrophy.

Sigh. TY. Gonna have to make sure my “Rethink” VPN is always up, and blocking Nova’s net access since I don’t think I use any features from it that require such.

I actually feel the same, but I was trying to not be too much of a downer.

Thanks for the recommendation, but I’m already subscribed. If you read the post a couple months ago from someone who just got a tiny phone, I made a longish comment on it with my own mini-review of it.

I was already aware of much of what you said, although I probably hadn’t gazed down the road quite as far.

However, what I was referring to was the regulation the commenter I replied to was calling for. What I meant was that proper legislation wouldn’t happen until the “rugpull” you described actually happens, and the economy finally goes into the recession it would otherwise already be deep into at this point. Being delayed so long may make it especially ugly, I fear - or it may just bridge us into the next thing that keeps the economy propped up, such as the robotics you mentioned.

May you live in interesting times, indeed.

That won’t happen until the brick wall is not only hit, but completely demolished. While Democrats are significantly more rational than Republicans, they are still almost as much in the oligarchs’ collective pockets. Only the Progressives give me any hope, but there aren’t nearly enough of them in Congress yet to make shit happen.

“5-stars, mine came with an official statement from the company saying Hitler did nothing wrong.”

You’d think they’d at least condemn him for not fighting until the bitter end.

Depends upon the cause. If AA is blocking certain countries, for example, and your uptime checker is running from one of them, well…

Or maybe both you and the uptime site are using the same DNS provider, which might be censoring AA.

It’s a Xitter post - an obviously sarcastic one at that. To treat such with the same seriousness as a legally binding statement of fact is no less absurd than your “unconditional support” assertion.
