All I can do is extend my sympathies, and tell you that you’re better off in the long run. Most people here don’t like corporate social media because of situations like yours.
Don’t worry about profanity. People swear all the time and don’t mark their posts.
Maybe because he’s waiting until the election is over? He’s probably noticed by now that he’s hurting Canada’s Conservative Party.
“This is not just about fines — it’s about the Commission kneecapping successful American businesses simply because they’re American, while letting Chinese and European rivals off the hook,”…
Um, Apple and Meta have no rivals, at least not in terms of reach, profitability, and power. That’s the problem.
Both sides put a lot of effort into reaching a mutually acceptable deal. I’m a LONG way from rooting for Iran, but I understand why they’re pissed.
Yes. I do trust the Canadian government to be much more fair than the current American government. Which kinda sucks, since I’m American, but still.
Good. Put them under a damn microscope.
lol true. I gave them the benefit of the doubt when they probably don’t deserve it!
Even if I was okay with her visiting my home, I wouldn’t be okay with the massive security detail and intrusive background check on every member of my household.
I sorta get it, but sorta don’t… and I’m proud of that. I’m glad I’m not a torturer (or official) who can seamlessly rationalize cruelty.
That headline seems like a bit of a catch 22. If he says he’s Hamas, he becomes a “legitimate” target.
I have no problem with this.

It would be interesting to see Trump defend Apple. Although they’re subservient to him, they’re probably not quite as subservient as he’d like.
They ought to rethink that. There was enough wrong that it sounds like an immediate danger to the crew. Hell, in the US, just "inadequate” alarms and fire doors “not as required” would be enough to close a building until they were fixed.
What do these people consider an “immediate danger”, anyway? A ship that’s actually sinking or burning at the time of inspection?
Port inspection documents show the Solong failed steering-related safety checks in Dublin, Ireland, in July, with the vessel’s “emergency steering position communications/compass reading” unreadable. Inspectors found a total of 10 deficiencies, including “inadequate” alarms, survival craft “not properly maintained” and fire doors “not as required.”
An inspection in Scotland in October found two other deficiencies. The ship wasn’t detained after either inspection.
Maritime law is a mystery to me. Who the fuck okayed this?
“Bon voyage, losers! The ship is a floating death trap, but whatever.”
That was the first thing I thought, too, but thankfully he was charged by British police!
If doing it makes you feel better, that’s all the point you need. Yes, it may be a useless waste of time, but that’s secondary. If it’s something you want to do, don’t let the possibility of backups stop you.
The best way to hurt major political donors is to hit them in the wallet. Trump is cutting the MAGA lifeline, for himself and every other MAGA candidate. For that, I will gladly take the pain.
