What do you mean, not run by smart people? The people running this company are rich. You can’t get rich unless you’re really smart.

Also funny: jail time, criminal record and being sued.

If propaganda and cultural messaging work that well doesn’t it kind of call into question the basic tenets of democracy?

I am not in a position to assume responsibility for this Lotus. 

they are LITERALLY following in the footsteps of the Nazis
