Thoughts on Politics

It’s a rare topic that it seems we (almost) all agree on.

> Elon Musk took to X this week to defend British far-right figure and anti-immigration agitator Tommy Robinson[…]: “The hobbits,” Musk waxed, “were able to live their lives in peace and tranquility, but only because they were protected by the hard men of Gondor.” Say what now?

Wow, how disappointing. Given how popular this program was, it’s sad to see its demise. And the money going instead to a car-centric program is insult to injury.

At the bottom, in the section called “Apple’s Values”, Snell contrasts this year’s statement on how Apple expresses its values through action and their statement on that subject this time last year. It’s worth the quick read.

The part I found the most interesting in this data-heavy analysis of American sentiment to Trump’s presidency was the section that asks “What is the most important issue facing America?”

The whole piece is just on point. Kudos to those who give generously without expectation of recognition or favor.

As far as I’m concerned, the local TV affiliates should keep their politics to themselves (or to their own editorial channels) or decide to not be an affiliate.
