No Space for Bezos activist group tells BBC they are "very proud of this".

“We are very proud of this! We are nobodies, we have no money, nothing!” Tommaso Cacciari, from a group calling itself No Space for Bezos, told the BBC.

“We’re just citizens who started organising and we managed to move one of the most powerful people in the world - all the billionaires - out of the city.”

The wedding kicks off later this week, and has a star-studded guest list of the rich and famous that is rumoured to include Kim Kardashian, Mick Jagger and Leonardo diCaprio, as well as several of the Trumps.

    Jesus Christ, this is the worst case of billionaire apologia I’ve ever seen. You are just going to town on those boots.

    Edit: Great Man Theory is the worst kind of cuckoldry, you fucking simp.

      Great Man Theory is the worst kind of cuckoldry

      Jesus Christ

      Do you see what you did?

      You are missing my point entirely.

      of great men, or heroes: highly influential and unique individuals who, due to their natural attributes, such as superior intellect, heroic courage, extraordinary leadership abilities, or divine inspiration, have a decisive historical effect.

      My argument is that there is no need to rely on divine leaders. Any leader could do. But for that, a climate must exist that fosters leaders so that some are available. By being toxic, the left eliminates their leaders and they end up as customers of Amazon, which they despise, but cannot change.
