Given that this is the UK, verified by chromosome tests and genital inspections

When slavery was an institution, “drapetomania” (the pathological urge to escape from one’s masters) was recognised as a mental illness. The USSR had “sluggish schizophrenia” (whose symptoms matched the behaviour of dissidents), with which a lot of troublemakers were diagnosed and permanently institutionalised. The more things change…

Or the surgeons, who started off as glorified barbers, and to this day don’t get the title of doctor, even though “brain surgery” and “open-heart surgery” are metaphors for tasks requiring extreme skill

Looks like this is neither in the US (as there’s a 13th floor) nor anywhere with a large Chinese community (as there are floors ending in 4)

By all accounts, he seems to have been a fairly standard TESCREAL-adjacent high-decoupling libertarian until now, like a lot of tech founders. While some of these end up steelmanning fascism and coming to the conclusion that it’s pretty neat, it by no means follows.

He owns 50% of the company. He would be legally within his rights to sack anyone moving against him. Short of him being visited by three ghosts and persuaded to change his ways/sell his share to someone more sympathetic to the company’s stated values/convert it to an employee-owned cooperative, there’s not much that can be done.

There’s no ethical consumption under capitalism, just a weighing of compromises and complicities.

Berntsson apparently gets most of his income from other companies that he owns (in investments), with Mullvad not being run primarily as a dividend source, so Mullvad’s contribution to the money he donated to the Nazis was probably small. Still, a small amount of shit in the punchbowl is still faecal contamination, though it may be good to keep the facts in mind if weighing up Mullvad vs. Proton vs. Kape and evaluating acceptable compromises (ethical consumption under capitalism and all that).

Those Zambians and Peruvians and such sure will be surprised when they get their first US federal income tax bill.

The male skull is noticeably flatter at the front because cavemen tended to punch each other in the face a lot

Apparently DOGE isn’t killing enough people (literally or metaphorically)

 

2024: Ireland accuses Israel of genocide. Israel ends diplomatic relations with Ireland. Ireland’s membership in the EU protects it from punitive sanctions from Israel’s allies

2025: The UK starts dumping non-EU-compliant goods into the EU customs zone through Ireland, undercutting EU producers. The EU moves to suspend Ireland from the Customs Union. Ireland calls on the EU for diplomatic backup. Germany replies “lol get rekt antisemites”. Ireland is reunited as an economic satellite of the UK, a century or so after independence

Allegations that bomb detectors from an Israeli firm are configured to let bombs through if they have a specific code (presumably used by Mossad). The title is a reference to an anti-counterfeiting watermark used in currency
