Mark Zuckerberg says he's done apologizing

techcrunch.com

As someone who also has naturally curly hair, I think he and I both learned how to let your hair be naturally curly without being frizzy at about thr same time. For years I would just get it cut really short, but I recently went to a really talented stylist who showed me how to curl my hair well and make it look more natural

NGL, I knew the barber across the street from Phillips Exeter Academy who used to cut Mark's hair. 'He wasn't very talkative.'

So he’s running for the Republicans once Trump is done, is what we can extract from this I guess?

I don't think he's going to be that successful on that front considering his background. The base of the Republican party is still very anti-Semitic except for matters pertaining to Israel, and even then for their own objectives. Can't count how many times I've heard of Jewish conspiracy theories from rank-and-file Repubs.

Plus, the Repubs already have their own social media vagabond, and he's not one of "them".

Calling out 'Republicans' as particularly anti-semitic is preposterous.

I have no idea what Zuckerberg will or won't do in the future, but this statement is so absurdly loaded and divorced from reality it is a genuine shame the first post is likely going to stay the 'top post'.

Maybe next time you want to throw baseless accusations and generalizations disparaging half the population, take a moment to look at 'your team' as well.

Cause right now it's not exactly looking good.

I say this as someone who is generally viewed as independent (Bernie, Ron Paul, RFK, Vivek etc. would be recent politicians I at least largely align with, although there is no one I fully agrree with or support.)

Repub politicians may be all for Israel and not anti-Semitic, but nearly every Republican base voter I've interacted with (and I employ a lot of blue-collar red-aligned voters) has alleged to a Jewish conspiracy controlling America's power structures. They aren't even the Bible thumping lot of the South but otherwise decent people from the Midwest.

Oh, and they don't have a problem at all with my Israeli colleague who frequently works with them. It's the American Jews that rile them up.
