- Comment on Tesla Board Opened Search for a CEO to Succeed Elon Musk 2 weeks ago:
If and when that cunt leaves you people need to continue the Tesla boycott. The message should be that association with Elon is damaging long term to a company. And not that Elon will bring publicity and notoriety to your company which can be turned into sales and increased market shares long after he’s left. Because that’s how these idiots think. They’ll happily accept short term loss if they think the bounce back after he’s gone will net them even more.
His brand is toxicity so don’t support any company that works with him. Ever. Treat him like a rapist. Actually maybe that’s a bad idea… if you treat him like a rapist the US will probably elect him their next president 💀🇺🇲.

- Comment on Virginia Giuffre's untimely death leaves unanswered questions 2 weeks ago:
speaking truth to power
God I hate this phrase. It’s an Americanism that has bled into British culture and now politics. Utterly meaningless. Achieves nothing but making people feel like their making progress but aren’t at all.
Oi M8 ur a cunt!
Dave, woah. What are you doing?
Speaking truth to power, innit.
The truth element is so broad it could apply to anything and the power bit is so vague it could also refer to anyone. Bland catchphrase politics. Yuk.

- Comment on Britain's state-owned energy company will not be allowed to use solar panels linked to Chinese slave labour, under changes to government plans 3 weeks ago:
Labour is too expensive here. Especially for something like fabrication of solar panels. Unless GB Energy wants to subside the industry for a decade or more? We can automate a lot of it but we’ll still be more expensive than countries in developing markets.
