Le boycott: French customers shun McDonald’s, Coca Cola and Tesla to protest against Trump... theguardian.com/world/2025/mar…
"A poll, which splashed the front page of the Libération newspaper last week, found that more than six out of 10 French people support shunning American products, and almost one in three are already avoiding them.
"The #BoycottUSA hashtag has spread across social media networks in what researchers say is a “historic collapse” of the US’s image in France."

How Voucher Vendors Could Make Millions from ‘School Choice’ in Texas
The Legislature’s current proposals put a handful of private contractors in the driver’s seat. Other states have already seen problems.Justin Miller (The Texas Observer)
It’s not surprising that there are a thousand (?) people at the Berkeley, California #TeslaTakedown protests, including so many old friends.
But across the country, deep in the suburbs, people are finding each other and building networks at Tesla dealerships.
*That’s* what we’ll need to get through some of this.

Oh, Muskie, my sweet. Yes, we do want to destroy your "influence" (= complete control), because we believe in democracy. Where ordinary people (remember them?) have a say.
And no, the "Nazi stuff" isn't fake. We saw you, light of my life, heart of my heart's desiring, we *saw* you make a Nazi salute. We *know* you enabled a fascist president, and spent $400 million to get him elected. We *know* you supported the neo-nazi AfD in Germany.
*You* are the evil one.

@futurebird He's traipsing around with a kidnapped child & won't let other kids leave the country to visit sick grandmother, he's messing in databases he doesn't understand, cutting off funding for seniors, orphans, health care, farm & emergency aid. His mommy did an interview explaining how he had no choice but to be a fascist because of all those pesky regulations...work situations within his own companies are described as demoralizing. He wants to destroy unions.

perhaps you use this as an opportunity to talk about the direct line between toys like these - whose sole purpose is violence - and full-scale systems of automated violence, such as #Habsora.
Progress across that spectrum is enabled by the social structures around young engineers, encouraging them to suspend ethical considerations and focus only on making the system do what it does. Are you part of that social structure?
