    Cali is so cucked by capitalists, it’s pathetic. I used to see California as a lefty progressive paradise. Boy was I naive at 12.

      It’s so funny to see republicans try to paint California as communist when it’s in fact a hyper capitalist state. At this point it’s monopoly capitalism and home to the American oligarchs.

      The punk scene was awesome at least, it used to be much better. I’ve been gone over 20 years and I can’t recognise it anymore.

      Meta struck a deal with Zuckerberg, first line in the article. Not with California as your comment seems to read.

            How is it moving goalposts to believe California is cucked by capitalists, by showing an example of California being cucked by capitalists…

            Seemed like a pretty generic opinion to have, and it certainly doesn’t need to be limited to 1 thing.

              The article is about Meta and Zuck striking a deal. Sounded like you blamed California (government) for that. When I pointed out that it was between Meta and Zuck, and did not involve california, you moved the goalposts to 5%. K I think this moving will continue so I’ll peace out.

    What terrible writing. Reuters should be embarrassed. Zuck decided to pay himself more. That’s it. Really, that’s what happened. The end.

    Meta Platforms (META.O) has struck a deal with Mark Zuckerberg to keep him living in California after the CEO ​warned he was considering leaving the state that houses the company’s headquarters ‌if voters pass a wealth tax proposal next month.

    Under the deal, Zuckerberg will get non-voting shares he can sell to potentially foot a multi-billion-dollar tax bill in the event the proposal is approved

      Let him go! Let him rot! Goddamn fucking corpo Dems piss me off

      Clearly, because in your anger you didn’t read the article to find out what was going on and went straight to making presumptions to feed your anger.

          Dude that isn’t screaming into the void, that’s creating a fake reality. Something happens and you created a fake reality to blame and hate Dems as quickly as you can.

            I can do both. I read the article and your right. Should we flagellate or should I just delete?

                No that’s reality. Corpo Dems can eat it.

                I commented while skimming and went off topic.

                  Sigh. You blamed dems for a deal between zuck and meta. You created a fake reality. And you’re basically doing it again. There’s no point in me continuing. you just want to be mad.
