      They’re swiss.

      We have more parties in our equivalent of the presidential office than you have parties in total.

      I have huge problems with this notion that you have to be either democrat or conservative. They don’t even cover 50% of the opinions I, a green-liberal (actual liberal, not US-definition), hold.

      You’re absolutely able and allowed to have your own opinion different from what any party official says.

        Yes but swiss people can still be absolutely piece of shit human beings. They proved that in WWII by helping fund the Nazis directly. Swiss people also aren’t immune from rampant US party propaganda. You aren’t magical, psychologically different humans than the rest of the world.

        Publicly supporting an openly fascist dictator, whatever “political party” they are on, someone who directly opposes the stated mission and values of the company, means that they are piece of shit humans who cannot be trusted with our data because they will just lie with what they do with it just like how they lied to us about their company values.

        Saying someone is swiss isnt the defense you want it to be considering that the swiss helped harbor nazi wealth.
