Jeff Bezos to step down as Amazon CEO, Andy Jassy to take over in Q3
Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos will step down later this year, turning the helm over to the company's top cloud executive Andy Jassy.
Jassy joined Amazon in 1997 and has led Amazon's Web Services cloud team since its inception.
Bezos said he will stay engaged in important Amazon projects but will also have more time to focus on the Bezos Earth Fund, his Blue Origin spaceship company, The Washington Post and the Amazon Day 1 Fund.
[...] Bezos will transition to executive chairman of Amazon's board.

His problem is he's been a "troll" for so long he believes his own trolling. He broke the first law of dealing drugs, viz., don't get high on your own supply. And since his stock in trade is basically memetic jenkem (look it up...), well...

Always fun seeing new people realize what a crazy fuck EF is.
There are a few other rightwing nutjobs that try hard to sound more reasonable but are rather bathsit crazy.

Well, those are the more recent user who have pushed crazy nonsense and defended the capitol insurrection. There are more, and even though they are nuts sometimes they do have decent points. Few people are 100% nuts.

Sounds like a ringing endorsement of them.

Yeah -- I'm on the list, but as antifa's own marketing says: "liberals get the bullet too."
I would not be surprised to see this threat go from rhetorical to real in the next five years. Hopefully I'm wrong but I don't see the authoritarian left giving up after a successful 2020 campaign of violence and terror, especially with all the corporate, educational, governmental, and media power at its back. What I think the foot soldiers don't get though, is that when they've destroyed our freedoms and leveled a good portion of the country and have ended the racist stain on history (in their view) that is America, that institutional power will still be there and it will then turn on them, except this time there will be no protections, not even a Bill of Rights to half-heartedlly follow. Everything will come down to who has power and who does not and the solution to that equation will be: who has the nukes?

Calling a protest/riot an "insurrection" indicates to me that we should look elsewhere for our yard/meterstick of what is "crazy nonsense".
