Never said I was American. Proton as a team has kept him on so that's their answer. He did not have to make a post at all complementing Donald but he did and that fact says A LOT.

It says a lot to you, but not to a lot of people. Stop barading the company for your own opinion

Who else's opinion should I barade them with then? I was a loyal customer and this was something I felt ruined their reputation to myself and anyone that should be looking to find a solution that doesn't show sympathies for fascist regimes. And I feel the Medium article I initially commented on brushes those concerns away and focus on "but are they MAGA?"

[–] Vinstaal0@feddit.nl 1 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

I am sorry, but I find it so absurd that people can literally kick somebody or a company down because of something relatively small. Most companies can be found dirt on, what are you going to do? I am just saying that there is more to the story than just calling somebody a MAGA supporter which these days is basically calling somebody a Nazi

I don't know what to say to you. Something small? I have lost faith if fascist sympathies is small. God help us

[–] Vinstaal0@feddit.nl 1 points 5 hours ago

I can say the same thing about you mentioning god. Religious conservatives have been an issue in the US (and outside the US as well) for years. But I am not going to call you out publicly for doing that either.

Now fascists are different, but agreeing with a more economic focussed standpoint doesn’t mean you have sympathy for fascists. I am progessive-center right aligned in politics, what are you gonna call me a Nazi? The US politics don’t lend for people to have specific directions with their votes.

Proton the company and the foundation are still on the consumer side of the while discussion and besides a deleted Tweet that aint gonna happen.
