Though the details of the Bezos wedding are highly guarded beyond the rumored $10-million budget
Ok so I’m not going to say that we all need to eat dirt so long as anyone is worse off than we are, but that’s a lot of money that could be spent on anything else.
I’m not christian but camel through the eye of a needle, man. You can’t be a good person when you’re sitting on that much wealth, and Bezos isn’t even trying.
People of Venice! The time has come to show the world what you’re made of, and more importantly, what you’ve got inside.
Let the canals bear witness to your courage. Not with arms, but with… offerings. I want to see a million floating turds on that sacred day. Let this wedding be remembered. Not for love, but for sheer intestinal audacity.
Take a stand, take a squat, and defecate for dignity.
Fate la storia. Fate galleggiare la gloria.
If they do anything to prevent things from floating through, get out your waffle stompin’ boots, Venice!
“You’re telling me none of these people shop on Amazon?” said New Orleans native Jake Springer, who, along with his wife, was spending a weekend in Venice on a wine tour through Italy. “At least they are protesting peacefully. Americans could learn a thing or two from this.”
They found the dumbest possible American to give a comment.
Americans seem to overestimate how big Amazon is here in Europe. Most people I know rarely buy anything off Amazon, a couple have Amazon Prime to watch content on, but that’s mostly it.
I was listening to an NPR segment asking American tourists at a French vineyard what they thought of the tariffs and they also managed to find the biggest group of dipshit chads they could
Seeing as they are on a wine tour, it’s probably another out of touch millionaire
Wine tours are maybe a couple hundred dollars. We do 'em pretty often. Great deal and you often get a tour of the countryside as well. If you’re ever in the Kelowna, BC area, check it out.
To be fair, it’s not that difficult.
At least they found one that could form a coherent sentence.
As an American, I think finding the dumbest of us would be hard given the amount of competition.
I didn’t think it was that hard at all, he’s in the news every day!
Unlike the president
Man, talk about being fucking disconnected from the rest of the world.
It’s of course impossible to know if it was intentional, but lets not forget - platforming the dumb drives engagement, one of the reasons our view of the world is distorted towards thinking people are worse than they are. (Don’t get me wrong, people aren’t great on average, and broadly follow the lowest common denominator trends - but especially with terminally online people, there is a huge problem with paranoia and defeatism thanks to that dynamic).
people aren’t great on average
Well, of course not. If ‘great’ was the average, it wouldn’t be great anymore - it’d just be average.
Aren’t great on… median? Majority fall below some arbitrary standard of “decent”?
Very likely it’s intentionally chosen or even fake to push the narrative that US protests are violent…
Palantir laughs quietly
May be on to something there. Only “Jake Springer” I see on LinkedIn posted from Port Aransas, TX yesterday.
Eeh, not a rare find when overseas. Most people don’t “tour” overseas, but you frequent busloads of these people.
They just checked voter registration. Easy pickins from there.
Well, that’s a pretty easy search.
“You’re telling me none of these people shop on Amazon?” said New Orleans native Jake Springer, who, along with his wife, was spending a weekend in Venice on a wine tour through Italy. “At least they are protesting peacefully. Americans could learn a thing or two from this.”
That person sounds absolutely insufferable.
Lmao the governors tell people to run over protestor here if they are in the street. Both methods block travel in the city, Venice is just specifically aimed at inconveniencing Bezos rather than the general populace.
They probably also think USPS delivers there using Prime shipping. Those are the kind of people reproducing.
Exactly what came to mind when I read that.
Fuck you Bezos
I could have sworn this dude got married in Aspen and spent $600M on it. They shutdown the airport for it even because of all the private traffic
How many times are they tying the knot?
Every time they update the prenup.
Sto cazzo…fottetelo.
It warms my heart.
Serious question, why are Venetians against Bezos’ wedding? Did he do anything that offended the city before?
The city is literally sinking, global warming is not helping and billionaires disproportionately contribute to it.
Billionaires are inherently evil.
It’s Jeff Bezos.
