I don't see the fake news anywhere.
Sure, the articles were most likely written as a result of the owner being a billionaire who doesn't want to lose his money, but that doesn't make the articles wrong. Taxes should be as minimal as possible and that doesn't change when someone becomes rich. You could also argue that companies competing to go into space is a benefit to humanity, though that isn't as clear-cut as the others.
As for the rest of the Washington Post, agreed that it's absolute garbage and filled with completely fake nonsense.
It's nothing short of hilarious how quick people on this board are to upvote literal socialist memes if it's about a billionaire they don't like. See the watermark in the image? It says "suave_meme_stash". All their posts are extremely left wing, and make the Biden administration look like the Reagan one. Here's one: https://www.instagram.com/p/CRSeYwGlapk/
If this meme was about Trump - a billionaire who avoided tax (which I have no problem with) his whole life, it wouldn't get any upvotes. But if it's about Bezos or Zuckerberg, people are quick to forget their political ideology and turn into communists for a couple of minutes.
Fair point. It's good that conservatism as a whole has moved away from deifying corporations and rich people, but at the same time we shouldn't hate them enough to endorse dumb economic policies. Bezos/Amazon are particularly interesting because they're despised by people on opposite ends of the spectrum for wildly different reasons.
Yep, spot on.
And that account is taking "the left can't meme" to a whole new level
