Elon Musk's New Year's resolution to stop letting John Oliver live in his head lasted 1(one) whole day

@elonmusk Dec 19 > “Oliver was great several years ago, but stopped being funny when he sold his soul to wokeness where humor is basically illegal.”
@elonmusk Jan 2 > “It is rather tragic to see an otherwise capable comedian like @iamjohnoliver become weak sauce. The reason he is not very funny these days is because he is too keen to pander to wokeness, which is fundamentally a lie, whereas great humor requires revealed truth.”

1.56 million children work on cocoa farms in Ivory Coast & Ghana. Companies like Nestle, Cargill turn child labor into billions in profits every year. In 2021 Supreme Court blocked a child slavery lawsuit against them, ruling that the victims had no standing because the abuse happened outside the US

US Supreme Court blocks child slavery lawsuit against chocolate firms: The US Supreme Court has ruled that food giants Nestlé USA and Cargill can't be sued for child slavery on African farms from where they buy their cocoa. In their lawsuit, the group of men alleged that they were forced to work on the cocoa farms for 12-14 hours a day. They also said they were kept under armed guard while they slept, in order to prevent them from escaping, and were paid little beyond basic food. The group say both companies perpetuated that slave trade to keep cocoa prices low.
The court ruled 8-1 that the group had no standing because the abuse happened outside the US.
