This is really just a rip on the CEO because of his political beliefs. I imagine if he donated money to some sort of left wing thing there would be no story. Just another tech person doing what they do. It's so amazing how divided everyone is nowadays, always looking for some reason to hate someone. That goes for left, right and center!
How dare we hate an unrepentent bigot!
Wanting to restrict the rights of minorites isn't a valid position. It's vile and worthy of hatred.
People are allowed to support whatever they feel like, especially when they don’t want to support someone’s bigoted beliefs. Is that not the free market?
Oh the Internet... Wonderful place. I don't feel like I was hateful or said anything groundbreaking. Yet got some very strong responses and negative points. Everyone seems to have forgotten this is America where people can have different views on things whether that is on cultural, political or whatever issue. This is the best country in the world but people have done a good job of dividing everyone. How can this be a horrible racist country when thousands of minorities risk life and limb to come here every year? When we had a war to end slavery. Also with everything granted in the Constitution and Bill of rights no country even comes close. You want to talk about homophobic, there are still many countries where gay people are killed and even hung. There are many minorities whether that is race, sex or whatever that have done very well in America, because it's based on what you do. So if a CEO wants to donate to whatever he believes in that's his right because I guarantee you there were lots of CEOs who donated on the other side. So I agree with everything Jeff Bezos believes or does? I'm sure I don't but I use Amazon because I like the service, that's my choice. So if you want to be a dick and rip me then do that it's your right. I will still have my opinion because it's mine.
There is a difference between active surpression and normal political believes, you freedome ends where other peoples starts otherwhise noone can be free!
Haven't had any responses yet so either you are not sure of your position because it has no actual backing or more than likely because this is lemmy which I am new to appears to be more European because half the memes are in a different language. You have the CNN, MSNBC, typical view of America... Not your fault that's all you are shown. It's funny I read Bbc to get a different view on things because my media is corrupted. So it's interesting to read an article from a different country and see how it compares to what is put out in the home.
