    Yeah, it’ll look just great when it’s done though. Really fit in with the aesthetic.

    Lib discourse is so wild.

    Let’s be clear: taking action like boycotts or whatever against companies collaborating with fascists is 100% appropriate and valid. But there’s so many companies that are complicit in much worse ways than bulldozing the White House. Why should I even give a shit about the White House? How about instead we pressure corporations that are involved in manufacturing weapons and bombs for the regime? Or companies that provide it with data, surveillance, and technical support? You know, the companies that give the admistration material power over people?

    By all means, knock yourself out doing this, I’m just confused why everyone is so invested in the White House. But if I had to guess, I’d say it’s because it’s a way of reaffirming loyalty to the state while criticizing it, making the criticism safely toothless. Me, I’d just say that all he did was save us the trouble of knocking it down ourselves.

      Libs dont have a coherent moral or political worldview. They are preoccupied with aesthetics and decorum. It is why the libs will not be involved in material change for the better. They simply lack the imagination or will.

    They call a peaceful protest nation wide the “Hate America” rally after paving over the rose garden with checks notes concrete, and are now literally destroying the white house.

    Got it.

        I mean… I hate what Trump is doing as much as the next guy, but review-bombing the demo company for doing proper demo? That’s just stupid. It’s the equivalent of a child throwing itself down on the floor of the supermarket, yelling, and stomping feet - it achieves nothing, but makes life harder for everybody.

        If they’re a good demo company and someone needs demolition done, they won’t find them, because they took a job… Stupid.

        And in this sense it’s good that Google is killing the obvious review-bombs.

          Are they doing a proper demo? You are supposed to need plans submitted before beginning renovations like this and those plans have not been submitted. These seem like the guys you call when you need someone who doesn’t care about following rules.

          When I hire contractors, if they are good at the job is the first thing I check. Then, if they are fascist sympathizers is the second thing i check. I want to know and google is stopping my from knowing.

          It doesn’t make life harder for everyone. It makes life harder for the people who took a job for a fascist. Perhaps they should not have done that.

    I wonder if Trump will just stiff them like he did when he was in real estate.

    I just can’t imagine him being ok with paying contractors for work.

    I love the sentiment, but Trump’s sycophants will simply contact Google and all those negative reviews will disappear.

    Edit: They’re already doing it

    The company’s rating dropped at one point to 1.8 stars, until Google revised it to 4.1.

      Canada didn’t do anything in 1812. It was the British army. Canada didn’t even exist until 1867.

        Yes please. I want to go there anyways. Would be nice to be governed by some place more sensible. I know it’s not perfect but it’s leagues better than we have here at the moment.

    It’s interesting how quickly & fervorously people will defend private capital from the smallest of infractions.

    In this case it’s just bad reviews, a form of peaceful public protest, the company will still earn a lot of profit.
    Worst case is other customers might not want a gov contractor.

    But yeah, “companies must do anything for max profit” is a systemic religion.

      I don’t know why anyone treats that as a defense of companies. Sounds more like a problem statement than acceptable reasoning.

      Even shareholders are hurt by the mindless drive to maximize profit because they still have to live in a world where everyone is trying to make the most for the least.
