The company itself fits my core values and hasn’t abandoned DEI, which is the main reason I’m considering a purchase.

A lot of posters on this community get mixed up with sending a strong message to Trump that his policies are not acceptable and wanting the US to to suffer. They see this as a black and white thing so much that they'll post silly memes about it. This only creates longer lasting divisions between Europe and the US. We should be shunning Trump and companies that adhere to his doctrine not blanket refusing to buy from US companies simply based on where they are headquartered. The latter would be something a Russian troll would actively push.

If a company is ethical given your research and stands true to values that you are comfortable with then you should be free to buy from them.

Oh yes, forgot about Turkey. We had fun drinking tea there.

Tea (and coffee) are kind of a tricky one for this topic. We don't tend to grow tea leaves / coffee beans in mass quantities in Europe. Please correct me but I thought tea was mostly grown in India and China and Japan and those areas whereas coffee in South America / Africa. They'll be shipped over to Europe for roasting for sure.

And berry tea is not tea. I will die on this hill.

We're going to have to put up with a low level of signal to noise in the community unfortunately. List this under noise.

Oh right, I thought you were going to say some technical or usability issue with Ubuntu. So it's more of an ideology problem with them?

That's the Trump bump! And it's only been eight weeks.

Or is it hump 🤔?

He did. But he stole it from the US government / tax payers. Every president since Obama has fallen over themselves to pour tax payer money into his arsehole. And he is living the high life because of it. This is literally what the US wants. They love subsidising this bitch.
