According to a trumphead at work, Zucker is a Democrat and the entire company is run by the far left.

Back on topic, I’d be embarrassed to call myself a “boogaloo” boy.

It’s like calling yourself a flapper.

“On Monday, Ford joined a growing list of influential corporations to pause advertising on Facebook as part of the campaign, joining Unilever, Adidas and others.”

(Goebbels and Stalin could only dream of a propaganda machine with such reach and influence.)

Not REALLY OT.

It’s all a part of the same primordial ooze that spawned the right wing, white supremacists.
