Not just French companies, companies in multiple EU countries (from the article). And it’s only applicable if they want to do business with the US. This behaviour is pretty normal for them - they used to have policies about not buying from companies that used child labour, or didn’t enforce DEI etc. They’re just enforcing a different set of standards for their suppliers now.
I’m not saying it’s not messed up, just that it’s not unusual and shouldn’t surprise anyone.
Yeah, I can accept that. I guess what really meant was fuck the current Dems that are so clearly complicit in whatever the GOP is doing and maybe even more Zionist. If they can be overhauled to the point they can, and do, get big money out (repeal citizens united), repair all the gerymandered districts etc. then sure - go Dems. I know that’s a huge ask, but it’s what’s needed.
Fuck the Dems - I’m hoping it’s a great sign for whatever party comes out of Bernie and AOC’s current tour. (I know I don’t really understand how things work there and I’m being optimistic talking about future elections.)
As an Australian living in Canada, I’m far from an expert on this stuff, but it seems to me the main benefit of something like this is visibility - he had (I believe) 10s of millions of views over the various platforms it was streaming on. Hopefully some of those people were not previously engaged and now are. It’s a start.
