I wonder if/how they'll even enforce that... Like does everyone whose documentation conflicts need to get new documentation ASAP? Seems like a bureaucratic nightmare to me

My great grandfather's buddy took the Mussolini corpse photos while they walked through and sold them to Time magazine, it's sort of a 6 degrees of separation thing but still a fun fact

Did Trump have anything to say about the Nazi salute, or just the inclusivity message?

Tony Stark was able to build this in a cave!

I've actually never met anyone like this. I think people on social media want a binary so they simplify all opinions into fascism vs antifascism and then point and laugh at those who try to bring the details back into the discussion. They claim that centrists are somehow "splitting the difference" between fascism and antifascism.

It's so illogical I can't help but rule it out when trying to understand someone's train of thought.

I pick my battles but sure, enjoy being miserable and boycotting everything under the sun

The difference is he's a public figure

My life would get way harder if I had to boycott every bad C-level executive. Keep in mind it's not just the CEOs profiting off the company. Companies are comprised of many people at each level and many are publicly traded. Think of all the bad people that could be profiting off Subaru, there's no way they're all angels. I'd rather not know because the solution isn't to give customers a laundry list of things not to buy
