What does a BIDEN Presidency look like?

I think there's a management cultural thing as well. A typical Fortune 500 CEO is an Ivy League graduate in their 50s or 60s, these may not be "woke" guys but they aren't Stars and Bars on their truck types either. I think there's some element to which these guys are feeling like they've funneled a lot of money to the GOP for its pro-business policies, but they want to send a message that while they might agree with the GOP business agenda they aren't really interested in a party that's all but openly embracing white nationalism as a core ideology.

Yeah - and this is a recruitment angle as well. It may be less of an issue in a mass-market, consumer goods company but if you're in a business where you rely on hiring bright graduates from elite universities to do grunt work then you either need to sort of align with their values/make Harvard kids feel welcome through your inclusion program or whatever. The alternative is you pay more than competitors who do the cheap culture stuff instead.

Mass market consumer goods companies (e.g. P&G) also recruit out of business schools and as a consumer facing organization are probably even more wary of aligning themselves with a white nationalist message.  There is a reason why Trump's core support in the corporate sector comes from family-dominated businesses like MyPillow, Goya, or HobbyLobby.

I expect the US will burn tonight following acquittal.

He'll get convicted of something.

I think just "something" still leads to riots.

Guilty on all charges.

Nope.



I haven't been following the case but I do wonder how they get to second degree murder.  Using the law I know I don't see where you'd get intent to kill, but MN may have some kind of constructive murder that we don't.

he maintained pressure on his neck despite multiple pleas from the victim that he couldn't breath. it's not premeditated, but it's still murder right there.  He can't claim he didn't know what he was doing.

Oh he knew what he was doing - that's what makes it homicide.

But did he intend to kill?  Hard to see that IMO.  But like I said they may have some kind of constructive murder law.

[Sheilbh]

I know nothing - but in England I think (based on very out of date law school) that the intent for murder is intent to injure or cause serious harm, even if they don't necessarily intend that but their actions make more or less inevitable. Is it not similar in Canada?

If you're suggesting that mixed marriages generate the same warm and fuzzy feelings in the rest of the world as it does in Europe and parts of the US, I'm not sure I agree.

Definitely not in Korea. But even in Korea (and other places where mixed marriages may not be as sexy, as per your suggesion), they'll be sensitive to "this flavour of white people are better than you". I think that in practice, running an explicitly pro-diversity multinational megacorporation is going to be easier than trying to manage N parallel national focused ones.

I've never had any problems. There is a super famous tv show that follows around a bunch of mixed families and their children in there daily life.
