Buy European because the software is less likely than American shovelware to be hostile to your privacy (and humanity) too.

However, you should be on the lookout for European companies that use the tariff-induced price increases to sneak in price increases of their own. And call that shit out when you see it.

I really hope so.

And sadly the over 50 countries now desperately calling the White House to ~~beg~~ negotiate are just inflating and reinforcing the Trump administration's ego and postponing the inevitable.

Stand strong. We'll come out of this better than depending on another culture's votes and whims. We do not start fights, but we can sure as hell win them collectively.

Trump has lost the mandate of heaven, the European age begins now.

The "European Age" is what lead to the colonization of the Americas and the subsequent creation of the United States of America.

So, no thank you.

Really curious for q1 earnings.
