"NEWS" outlets are competing against social media and are doing things to get your attention.

Some "NEWS" outlets are leaning towards activism and the others are leaning towards entertainment. NEWS companies are now either Media or Technology companies. And journalism has taken a backseat to doing things to get attention

As a person who likes hand made items I'm for this. I will pay a premium for someone who hand makes an item. Bonus if it's someone older who provides old school craftsmanship.

I really want to make a joke about representation, but more to the point.

Having different ethnic people targets different demographics. We hear about people from various groups wanting this and now someone is doing it.

They seem to be getting traction by doing this. If it works for them others will follow.

My wife is in a Union and she has been getting info that has nothing to do with her job. Some unions cross pollinate with whatever cause someone in the union is interested in. She wants a raise but can't because of collective bargaining, but the union isn't doing anything about that. However they are talking about other political issues. So her dues are not helping her but whatever political issue is being promoted.

Not to the same scale but yes. At least there are Teslas still made here.

With Apple it's the scale of what was done.

I know people making less than that but they are getting subsidies. It's people who are not poor enough for subsidies and not affluent that is getting squeezed

I would think HP or Dell could buy this but given what they did it would require to much. The company should die and the employees that contributed to this should be in jail..
