From a 21 year old kid I like how people now get thrown into trash bin for rest of their lives for one stupid thing, and what did he even do? He gave some money to a people making memes. Then he apologized and lost his position in his own company (yeah yeah he had already sold it whatever he was founder) and people still have a stick up their asses about this. I can't tell if it's plain old jealousy or if political climate is just so toxic in US now that you can't even express your opinion(s) without being forever marked (and then these same people dare to speak how we are going towards Orwellian society even though they are already living and implementing it)
