    Thank you for at least finding an article. I sadly have to agree that this is an op-ed piece and that it does differ a bit from the picture.

    Doesn’t mean you shouldn’t go and cancel your subscription. I personally just don’t feel that we need to resort to exaggerated or false claims. Actual, verifiable facts are pretty damning on their own, the donations and super pacs alone are enough reasons to justify boycotting them. That doesn’t even include their defense contracts or ICE contracts. Heck, the environmental impact and the impact on consumer goods’ prices are enough on their own.

    But we don’t need to make stuff up or spin it in a way to exaggerate a message to support an agenda. We get enough of that shit from AI slop articles making news up as it is.
