“CEO is maga” is the equivalent of going: “Lulzagna wants to force everybody on the planet to only eat lasagna and nothing else, because he tweeted ‘I like lasagna’ once”.
Context:
Trump was still in his “I hate social media because social media won’t force users to praise me” phase. He appointed a person known to be very pro-consumer and very anti big-tech to an important job at the DOJ. Democrat accounts defaulted to “whatever Trump does is bad” and started shitting on the pick. Proton CEO wrote:
Great pick by @realDonaldTrump. 10 years ago, Republicans were the party of big business and Dems stood for the little guys, but today the tables have completely turned. People forget that the current antitrust actions against Big Tech were started under the first Trump admin.
Which is all literally just stating facts. The only opinion here is that the pick is good - which, from the standpoint of a company that supports privacy and consumers - makes sense.
Oh, JFC, can we stop with this bullshit already?

Here’s a deeper analysis, including a dive into those antitrust actions started by Trump 1.0, and projects that Proton helps financially.
