    Very true.
    I guess I just don’t think it counts as support, when you point out that someone is a terrible person with a great looking shoes.
    Is pointing out that a broken clock is right twice a day, the same as saying it works great?

      Steve, I just read this whole exchange between you and the other person, and I just want you to know that it was beautiful. You are the kind of person that we need for the public discourse and democracy to work.

      I think if it is a nazi clock, if you don’t criticize that fact when you mention the correct time, that is tacit support.

      ESPECIALLY if, when people tell you, “don’t you know that’s a Nazi clock?” You double down and refuse to apologize.

      I agree with you I think that this is a very small issue and on the whole proton’s actions have been trustworthy but I would be lying if I said it didn’t shake my confidence in them as a company.
