The protests against segregation worked, though. As did the protests against nuclear energy in the Netherlands, protests against all kinds of shit in France, protests for womens votes, etc.

Defeatism never works, though.

If he's got dementia, he'll probably die within 10 years of his first symptoms, and that's been a while. It'll still be too long, obviously.

Highly unlikely. The arms dealers are on his side.

He was never cool, but he used to be considered a mildly amusing rich guy. He actually seemed to have a sense of humour at some point.

Indeedy. Hitler didn't want to destroy the country, didn't defund scientific research, had advisors who knew what they were doing, didn't sell state secrets to the USSR, didn't want to destroy nature... I can't believe I'm defending Hitler.

I love that Romania declared its elections invalid because the winner had obviously been put there by Russia. Which is exactly what the US and the Netherlands should have done.

The Colosseum was never abandoned (apart from initially, obvs). The reason its still standing is that people (including popes) kept paying for it to be maintained.

They've picked trans people as a "danger" so people don't realise what the true dangers are (like having a fascist president, for example).

 

They've stopped sponsoring SF Pride, even though their "we're so inclusive" bits on their website are still up.

They own a LOT of brands, so check out the Wiki and avoid them like the plague.
