Morality lessons from Bill Gates. The mind boggles…

Yeah! The world’s largest cult has a new guru!

Tesla is the poster child of companies that feel the wrath of people who oppose fascism. But this needs to happen to all the companies that kowtow to Trump and his regime, and there’s a whole litany of them.

She is a career humanitarian and environmentalist

You just repeated exactly what I said.

Greta Thunberg - how to milk one viral moment you had as a kid and make a career out of it.

It means actual jail sentences for corporate board members and executives

I’ve been advocating exactly this for many years. One very effective way to give psychopathic corporate “persons” a sense of decency and propriety really quickly is to threaten the real persons running it with real hard time.

I wish US fascists restricted themselves to spreading fascism only in the US.

Indeed it was a joke apparently. The magats who voted for Trump have no humor and didn’t get the joke…

This new trend of using “slam”, “blast” and “torch” in each and every headline in a cheap effort to make it more sensational annoys the living shit out of me. It’s like English for toddlers…

No surprise. All revolutions that start with noble ends for freedom and equality invariably end up becoming dictatorships themselves. Sometimes it takes 249 years, but they all go sour eventually.

They stopped the shipments cold türkiye.

$1m would be insulting.
$10k is beyond insulting. That’s probably one the cheapest entry fees to one of his disgusting Mar-a-Lago fundraisers.
Trump really has a knack for insulting people. He’s basically saying “You’re worth a fifth of a Tesla car”. How cheap can you be…

That’s a critical passageway for the US. It’d be something like the Strait of the Gibraltar being severed for Europe,

It’s quite different: the Panama Canal belongs to Panama and theirs to do as they please. Gibraltar, while not international waters, is free to all navigation for the purpose of crossing under the Law of the Sea Convention and may not be closed off by either Spain or Morocco.

Panamá should ban all military ships from all nations from going through the canal. That would go a long way towards promoting world peace and easing trade.

Of course, realistically, they would be invaded by the US faster than you can say “Pissing off the richest military dictatorship in the world isn’t a smart idea”. Still, the idea is appealing.

Well, Americans can always wipe their asses with newspapers like in the old days, and that’s pretty much the only thing their press is good for these days anyway.

Trump may have shot the US in the foot on that one: I have a feeling Europe will finally do what they should have done decades ago - i.e. ween itself off the US’ protection, and also off US tech, with France taking the lead on the military effort at least - and this may hasten the US’ slide into irrelevance.

Do you know that Canada has a 250 per cent tariff? Two hundred and fifty, nobody knows that. They charge us numbers that are crazy.

Cheeto continues to be totally ignorant of how tariff work.

The only good news about the royal family is when they’re finally stricken off the civil list and made to pay taxes like the rest of their subjects.

That’s why I said it’s an old Finnish joke.

I lived in Finland long enough to know that the Finns are not really happy. Or unhappy. Or excited. Or anything at all. If they are, they hide it really really well. The only true sentiment I ever felt in the Finns is quiet pride of their country.

Here’s an old Finnish joke:

Why are people in Finland the happiest people on Earth?
Because all the sad people have killed themselves.
