    Cool cool, lumping “I love fascists, actually” together with “We’re clarifying our legal positions”

      The creator is pro-Trump and they also recently stopped posting updates to Mastodon citing “they don’t have the resources” for it, or something like that.

      Correct me if I have missed something; I’ve got no skin in the game, I just see the drama a lot.

        Andy Yen, who probably doesn’t keep up with U.S. news outside what he needs to for his company’s business needs, said an egghead thing.

        Unless he said something else everyone is blowing this out of proportion.

          The dumbification really does seem to permeate everything everywhere, doesn’t it. Imagine circlejerking antiintellectual regime taking points on lemmy.

      Nothing. The CEO dared to congrat someone (Trump) that other people (including myself) heavily dislike from the wrong account. So, tolerant and rational people want to cancel him and his company.

        I’m sorry but what possible positive can you find in Proton doing that?

        In what universe does his kissing the feet of that dicator equate to us keeping our lives private?

          Whatever, guys. I don’t care about Proton, I don’t care about it’s CEO, I don’t care about Trump (quite the opposite, actually). Be enraged on every little shit and don’t forget to ask even the grocery guy about his political preference. Maybe you’re giving money to someone supporting Trump or his local equivalent. The internet and its virtue signaling is becoming increasingly annoying these days.
