Same, it's pretty maddening. I want to stop hearing about stuff that's going to deteriorate my general health but at the same time I don't want to be blindsided by all the stuff that will have a legitimate impact on my life.
It's all so insanely stupid and I'm so tired of him getting away with all the bullshit without even trying. Feels like the whole government is just his condom puppets that say yes to his every whim and just allow him to fuck over the country
Not even just the government. These are basically payoffs from companies like Google to curry favor.
I'm so sick of these companies that sold themselves as making the world a better place for two fucking decades immediately just turning tail and deciding actually just paying off the king for better treatment positioning is better than democracy. It's all so short sighted and absolutely fuck-stupid.
start collecting names of people doing this and deal with them after this regime is gone
Or before it's gone, less judicially.
What, did you expect MBAs to be smart?
I mean, fair, but we're talking about Alphabet/Google/Youtube which was founded and run by two computer scientists until very recently. To my knowledge both Sergei Brin and Larry Page continue to be controlling shareholders, and while Page stepped down in 2019, Brin came back in 2023 to contribute to Google's AI efforts.
Just because they vote on some stuff once a year doesn't mean they control the company.
I guess my point is Google was shit long before this when those guys still ran the company. Hell, even Eric Schmidt was a former computer engineer.
Brin was even at Trump's inauguration along with current CEO Sundar Pinchai.
Yes.
