This is what I’ve been saying about US politics for a long time. They’ve got two parties - the far right, and the batshit crazy right.

Yes. Innocent until proven guilty in a court of law is a fundamental principle for good reason. For example, we don’t actually know if anything of what we’ve read about him is actually true.

Exactly. People need to remember that this is the Internet, not their home country. We don’t know where you’re from.

I get your point, but he didn’t create Tesla, he bought it (as far as I know). So it could be argued that these things would be happening with or without him. But with him, he’s giving electric cars (at least, that brand) a bad name.

Yes. My company wanted me to get a corporate credit card with Bank of America. I said absolutely not, they have a terrible reputation and I want nothing to do with them. In response, I was told in an email (which was Cc-ed to some VP of Finance) that this wasn’t true, and that Bank of America has a great reputation.

Now, if you’re gonna claim I’m wrong and start cc-ing people, you better be able to back it up. This pissed me off, so I googled for lists of the worst banks in America. Of the three first surveys on the topic that I found, two of them had Bank of America as the “top spot” as worst bank, and the third one had it in third place. I emailed this back to the person. I never heard back. I happily continued not using their corporate credit card ever after.

I’ve found that Mastodon (for those who don’t know what it is, think of it as sort of distributed open source Twitter) has been great for me. There are lots and lots of instances, and you’ll probably be able to find one that suits your interests. I’m very much into tabletop roleplaying games, and there were already several instances for that kind of thing, but I still started my own. It’s been a lot of fun.
