      oh hell no. get that opinion piece out of here.

      He licked Trumps balls on x, got completely ignored then their PR service went into damage control and got a bunch of crap written like you just posted that ‘journalist’ has 12 followers.

      Then the doubled down on it here with more outright bullshit.

      There’s no misunderstood fact here, we’re shitting on Yen for being a shitty person. The bad press is he has markedly awful decision making capabilities and the inability to keep his mouth shut to save the reputation of his company, followed up by the audacity to double down on his rhetoric.

      Then they deleted their comments so people like you can say it never happened. But there are always archives.

          I find that VERY interesting.

          you having a little trouble with the captcha there or is your government blocking archive sites?

            No captcha, just getting a “this website cannot be reached”. Might be because I’m on a VPN, maybe?

            As to the contents - I don’t get what’s controversial about any of this.

            Other than the obvious tribalism of “he said a good thing about X therefore he is against Y”? He literally stated why he considered Democrats to be anti-consumer (and… well, he’s right, the corporate takeover is a fact), and why he considers Republicans (at the time) to be more pro-consumer (which, again, was a statement of fact, Trump 1.0, due to his hissy fit against social media and big tech started quite a lot of anti-trust cases against them. The entire “block TikTok in the US” thing came from him).

            So… Where’s the controversy? What in these posts suggests that he’s MAGA?
