I do enjoy Ed Zitron's takes but the [completely righteous] anger wears me out. Would be fun to hear him occasionally talk about things he likes.

Interesting...I didnt know about Reid. And you are SO RIGHT! LinkedIn IS a toxic hell-hole. It became a dating site and a place for angry old white guys to beat their chests for Trump. I'm still on it as I post for some clients, but canceled my subscription.

I mean, what social media site hasn't become a sex predators and Trump worshippers paradise? They are all so gross. I am exhausted with all these rich assholes trying to control every single aspect of our policy and regulations just so they can get richer, while we shoulder the brunt of the downside. Time to rise up and make billionaires a thing of the past.

I'm with ya! Income inequality is a major reason why America is close to the edge.

Slight disagreement. They should keep the cash and keep Kahn in place. Write Reid an AI generated thank you note and ask for more donations so they can continue their anti-trust work.

Me likes the cut of yer jib Kieran. "Let's do as Kieran suggested" would be my response to you were I empowered to influence the VP's election policy.

I’ve been gobsmacked at the way large companies, who have been allowed to merge with other large companies, leaving us little choice where to spend our money, have been green-lighted over the years. Also, Hoffmann’s “donation” smells like a quid pro quo. I’m glad Ms. Khan is at the helm. I’m also glad I quit LinkedIn.

Excellent and on point! Stop the billionaire buyer's from bribing their way to the top!

Apparently this Fuck-Chuckle thought he was dealing with a Republican Pay for Play POTUS candidate.

Thanks for this explainer. I had heard the name Lina Kahn floated around a lot lately and didn’t know who she was. Great post. And any time you want to tell us all the reasons you hate LinkedIn, I am here for it.

I would hope with the amount of campaign cash coming in the Harris folks can afford to say no to $7 million that has strings attached.

Or to continue your thought, I hope that they can continue to say no!
