He’s absolutely right, of course…

…and that is why the EU, UK and Europe as a whole need to keep their focus on citizens, consumer rights, standards and quality.

This is what the EU has been doing best - standing up to big tech. Repeatedly.

We should be rejoining the EU and joining that effort.

Big move. May well be the first of many.

He orchestrated a coup. It failed.

He was a convicted felon.

He rose to power on a wave of divisive propaganda and hateful anti-immigrant rhetoric.

He promised to make things great again.

He threatened to annex his neighbors.

I'm referring, of course, to Adolf Hitler.

My favorite part of Zuckerberg's Joe Rogan interview is when he suggests there is not enough masculine energy at his company, where two out of every three employees is a man.
