You forgot to finish with the famous line from the movie Network: And I'm not going to take it anymore. The editorial highlighted every major issue during our pariah president's tenure, but characterizing Silicon Valley's business bosses as appeasing and capitulating is as ill as Pam Bondi's nose in South Park.
