Why did you completely ignore the content of the comment? You're the one sounding like a bot here.
Because the content of the comment has been addressed multiple times in threads like this. As with everything, the world is not black and white.
This thread and comment on Reddit do a better job on addressing the comment (sorry for linking for Reddit)

@professionalspooner @verdigris @buyeuropean people are entitled to their opinion though. If they don't want a product because of it's CEO, that's totally fine
E.g.: see Tesla nowadays.
Yeah but if they spread misinformation about the CEO, it can be called out
Why not explain yourself here? I don't want to give Spez the traffic
I am sorry. I would never make it justice to the whole discussion.
Here's a troddit link which I just learned that exists andis open source.

I hope that's helpful.
Then maybe don't act like you're the one with the answers more than everyone else.
Calling someone a "bot" doesn't refute anything. It's just a childish response because you disagree. While you also seem to be unable to explain this stance for yourself. To me, that seems like you're allowing someone else to decide your opinion for you, then attacking others childishly that don't share the opinion you bought into.
