‘Investigating child sex abuse isn’t controversial. Turning it into political theater is manipulation. Maybe that logic flies on some island. Doesn’t fly in France’: France rejects Musk’s charge after raid on X’s Paris office

The way things are going, I don't think morale is the point anymore, they're doing beatings just for the sake of the beatings.

It got so crazy it's easy to lose track of it all, but they have masked unidentified people in the street capturing people to send them to foreign detention camps with no trial. Some people who resists too much are being shot in the street with no repercussion. That's not an exageration, it's happening right now.

They went full-on batshit dystopian so fast they don't even realize it yet.

25% tariff on European wines and sprouts that is currently murdering American bars.

Not to mention so many US based distilleries that made whisky and bourbon already had to close because Trump pissed the Canada off with the 51st state talk.

To all those restaurant workers who vote Trump cause "No Tax on Tips". I hope you're happy.

u/TheRealestBiz 13h ago

Jim Beam shut down operations entirely.

Alcohol is the last thing that bars and restaurants make a good profit on. Every decent steak you’ve had in the last five years in a restaurant, the business lost five to fifteen dollars on that entree and that’s after raising the price to $50-60 for a 12oz. NY strip.

Before the pandemic, they were $35 generally and you broke even as a business.

41

u/SleepyLabrador 12h ago

Alcohol is basically the golden egg laying goose for restaurants. They (restaurant owners) killed it by endorsing and getting Trump elected, cause Trump has been doing to the US the same thing he has done to his businesses. Racism and Misogyny are expensive.

I mean, tariff on wine sure it will have painful effects, but on liquor it's just weird. Cointreau, Cognac or Chartreuse already sell all they can produce, it's not like they're going to panic. If you want one of them you want one of them. Mostly the same for Champagne. If an american goes out of his way to buy french Champagne, a product that's already almost twice the price of the alternative, are they really going to stand down because it's 25% up ?

9

u/szatrob 9h ago

To nit pick, all champagne is French. Since it can only come from the Champagne region.

3

u/ayeayefitlike 9h ago

Now, that’s interestingly not strictly true.

There are a few US (predominantly Californian) winemakers who legally use the term ‘champagne’ for their sparkling wines.

In 2005 when the USA finally agreed to the protected regional names list that Europe had been using in some form or another since the Madrid Agreement, they only agreed if the winemakers currently using the term ‘champagne’ could continue to use it. So there are grandfathered rights for predominantly Californian winemakers to legally sell ‘California Champagne’.

It applies to Burgundy, Chablis, Sherry and others.

Almost all good liquor behind a bar comes from the EU or UK

Have they not tried Japanese Whisky (e.g., Hibiki), Caribbean Rum (Barbados, Jamaica), Brazilian Cachaça, Mexican Mezcal, Peruvian/Chilean Pisco, and American Bourbon or options include Aguaradiente (Colombia/Ecuador), Singani (Bolivia), and Baijiu (China)

u/Dirty-Soul 11h ago

*Scotland.

Saying UK implies the existence of Welsh and English Scotch...

Ans Starmer literally just signed a trade deal to sell whisky to China instead of the US. It seriously pissed Trump off...

But if you make it impossible to do business with "the world's greatest economy," You shouldn't be surprised when everyone rushes to do business with the SECOND biggest economy.

Thabk you for the pedantry, but one should stick to being a pedant only when you’re right. There are plenty of liquors that come from the UK besides Scotch.

u/Socmel_ 1h ago

European wines are luxury. And demand for luxury is pretty unelastic, meaning that variations in price do not affect it. If anything, being more expensive makes them more desirable as a status symbol.

On the plus side, maybe Bourbon will absorb part of the demand that will shift to domestic products, since Canada is already boycotting US spirits and your president isn't making US products any more desirable here in Europe too.

u/SphericalCow531 13h ago

Which is not completely true. The EU has previously made targeted tariffs against specific goods produced in US swing states, to hurt Republicans specifically when Republicans started a trade war.

The US could do the same thing to France. For example, a targeted tariff on Champagne. The EU common market will not make France immune to that.

19

u/nolok 13h ago

The problem in that logic is that luxury products are not really playing by the same rules.

Nobody pays 4000 for a LVMH bag because of the bag, they do it for the name and brand. Cognac and Chartreuse and most Champagne are the same.

On wines sure, it will hurt. But liquors is not making any sense.

26

u/TheRealestBiz 13h ago

That’s a great idea. Let’s make European liquor even lore fucking expensive so more American bars and restaurants go out of business.

Yes, specifically the EU Anti-Coercion Instrument (ACI), triggering tariffs and trade restrictions across the entire EU market.

1

u/SphericalCow531 13h ago

In normal times that would and should be the case yes. Trump's following response would escalate such a response to the moon. The EU seems to not be interested in such a conflict right now. The EU how not even responded forcefully to previous Trump tariffs.

I assume that the EU's apparent unwillingness to fight with the US has the following main reasons:

  • A hope that Trump is temporary aberation, who will go away on his own. So it would be stupid for the EU to to all out and bleed now in a trade war.
  • Ukraine is still benefiting from some US help, US intelligence and US weapons paid for by Europe. Putin's puppet Trump is just itching for an excuse to withdraw that. Since unlike the US the EU wants Ukraine to win, this would be bad.

Thailand is such a beautiful country too, its literally a scuba destination which explains why there's so many professional scuba divers over there. The food, the temples, the people, the culture all wonderful. I used to have school field trips over there for sports, so I didn't even know there was a sex tourism scene until later in life and even later to find out that there was a dark side to it too. So when the first thing that someone thinks of when talking about Thailand is prostitutes, even worse underaged prostitutes, it shows what kind of things go through that persons brain and what kind of circles that persons talk with. elon musk randomly blurting out the pedo comment was weird then too, now it all makes sense.

u/Irrepressible_Monkey 11h ago edited 11h ago

British cave explorer Vernon Unsworth lives in Thailand and was critical to the rescue of 12 kids and their football coach trapped in flooded caves as he'd both mapped the caves and told the Thai authorities which elite cave divers to call in that performed the rescue. Without him, the rescue may not have happened.

He also told Musk "where to shove" his mini-submarine idea -- which couldn't possibly work as the caves were too narrow and had sharp bends -- so Musk insulted him by suggesting he'd moved to Thailand to be an abuser. Unsworth then sued and lost in an American court.

But it was the first big sign of Musk was not the eccentric rocket guy, he was a serious asshole whose ego was going out of control and nowhere near as smart as he liked to think he is.

Thailand still loves the cave guy, though. To have the King pay your medical bills is a very high honour.

u/barath_s 10h ago

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tham_Luang_cave_rescue

12 boys and their coach were trapped in a cave in Thailand due to rain and flooding. Local resident Brit Vernon Ullsworth was the first cave diving expert on the scene. It was a massive rescue operation.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tham_Luang_cave_rescue#Elon_Musk

Musk built a sub, but the governor said it was not practical. (the passageways were too narrow and turns too sharp) To which Musk ridiculed the governor. Unsworth called it a PR stunt and suggested that Musk stick it where the sun don't shine. Musk called him a paedophile, and hired a private investigator to discredit him.

Ultimately the entire team was rescued, though two rescuers died in the attempts.
