What's going on with Proton the company?
Edit: ah fuck, thanks for the replies. Sigh.
Their CEO praised Trump/the Republican Party. He got widely criticised for it. Proton released a damage control statement but later deleted it after it made things worse.
People are now moving away from Proton as a result.
Who knew pirates were such babies they can’t use a product simply because the ceo has differing political views. Insane.
No it's insane to continue supporting companies when their leadership doesn't align with your ideals. The only power you have is choice. Now run along and continue being the good little consumer you've been made to be.
You’re acting like their CEOs political leaning makes any difference at all to the company. It doesn’t. All people like you are doing is making sure everyone just hides their opinions to fool numpties like yourself.
Run along and draw some swasticas on cars while calling yourself the good guys.
Capitalism has really done a number on you. It's sad. You even admit you have to hide your opinions, but can't understand what that really means. Ah well. It's not like you matter anyway so keep in being a piece of shit with no self awareness!
I don’t hide my opinions, clearly, you absolute pencil.
Communism/leftism has really done a number on you.
People don't support things and people they think are wrong, what a wild concept
liberals really struggle with that concept. esp democrats. they keep thinking people will show up just because they're less fascist than republicans.
You’re talking about a community that supports piracy lol. Not exactly the moral compass you’re pretending they are.
huh? Where did I say pirates are morally superior? I meant that people, in general, like to think of themselfs as good and so avoid doing things they think are bad. I don't see where I might have implied what things are good/bad.
Wait til they hear that Tor was developed and is largely run by the US military.
