India fined HP $14.4 million for rigging government bids and fixing ink and toner prices

HP sells cartridge-locked printers at a loss -- a large benefit for consumers -- in order to recoup profits on consumable sales. I'm not a big fan of this model, but it is still a business model that is valid, legal, and ethical. If you don't saving money up front and paying an even larger sum later -- buy a different printer. It's called the free market.
And I will, of course. In the past, I had a model that allowed the use of third party ink.
 
No. Trump demanded universities follow federal law, which requires equal access to education regardless of race and gender.

"...following the 2023 Supreme Court ruling that struck down race-based affirmative action, the U.S. Department of Education and the Justice Department are investigating over 50 universities for operating race-exclusive fellowships, scholarships, and specialized training programs that bar or exclude white and Asian applicants...."


It takes a real racist to support programs like this. And it takes a true anti-semite to criticize the DOJ investigating those schools who allowed young Jewish students to literally be chased through halls by screaming mobs without taking action:

"...Jewish students on U.S. campuses are facing an unprecedented surge in antisemitic hostility, which has manifested as verbal harassment, physical intimidation, and exclusion. Following highly disruptive protests and unauthorized encampments, data indicates that 41% of Jewish students feel the need to hide their identity. Many students report being targeted, spat on, and excluded from campus groups..."


But then, Leftists have always hated Jews, back to the days of Germany's National Socialism.
So much buuuuuuuuuls***. That's not the university free speech problems that I was referring to, but hey, you love to give random things that make zero sense just to escape.


In the end all you are doing is proving to the world just how bad trump is and just how insane maga cultists are for allowing this to happen.
 
So much buuuuuuuuuls***. That's not the university free speech problems that I was referring to
So you're fine with far Left radicals terrorizing young Jewish students through the halls of US campuses? Instead of condemning these anti-semitic attacks, you're condemning the response to prevent them. You want a brown shirt to wear with your Sturmabteilung manifesto?

But please by all means, tell us how Hitler didn't "ban guns", because -- after he confiscated millions of firearms, arrested gun owners, and banned gun clubs -- he then allowed German citizens firearms again ... but only if they were good Nazi Party members, vouched for and given a permit by the local Nazi police office.
 
You can't change history by denying it. It wasn't limited to "paramilitary schools". From the Nazis original infamous "25 point plan" (proclaimed by Adolph Hitler himself):

Point 2) "The state is to be responsible for a fundamental reconstruction of our whole national education program, to enable every capable and industrious German to obtain higher education ... We demand the education at the expense of the State of gifted children of poor parents without consideration of position or profession...."


Again, why lie? From the same proclamation:

Point 7) "We demand that the state be charged first with providing the opportunity for a livelihood and way of life for the citizens...."

Point 15) " We demand an expansion on a large scale of old age welfare."

These are hardly the most liberal points in Hitler's program -- the program for which millions of German liberals voted him into power. Here's a few far-Left nuggets:

Point 7. "We demand that the state be charged first with providing the opportunity for a livelihood and way of life for the citizens."
Point 11. "We demand abolition of unearned (work and labour) incomes. Breaking of rent-slavery [division of assets]..."
Point 13. We demand the nationalization of all associated industries (trusts).
Point 14. We demand a division of profits of all heavy industries.
Point 16. We demand the creation of a healthy middle class and its conservation, immediate
communalization of the great warehouses and their being leased at low cost to small firms
,
Point 17. "We demand a land reform suitable to our needs, provision of a law for the free
expropriation of land [and] prevention of all speculation in land...
."

Socialism, pure and simple.

My favorite is Point 23, which mirrors nearly word-for-word President Biden's attempts to create an Orwellian Disinformation Governance Board, to allow the government to control what could and could not appear in media and social media:

Point 23. "We demand legal opposition to known lies and their promulgation through the press. "
I love how you are posting and bragging about points that were not implemented.

Point 2 - demanded the abrogation of the Peace Treaties of Versailles and Saint-Germain. and just like trump, they broke international treaties. thanks for talking about it and showing that trump is a extreme right fascist like the Nazi

Point 7 - This point was tied strictly to racial definitions of citizenship (Points 4 and 5). It paved the way "legal" exclusions, property seizures, and deportations. Sounds familiar? It's because it exactly what trump is doing with his gestapo.

Point 15 - see point 7. benefits were strictly limited to "racially valuable" citizens. they even used this as an excuse to KILL undesirables. this is exactly the way trump handles welfare, it's not a "leftists" policy. only the extreme right adds such provisions and uses it as a weapon.

Point 11 - this point was abandoned and subverted once the regime seized power. As per usual, maga easily fall for propaganda.

Point 13 - this point was completely reversed. Rather than nationalizing trusts, the Nazi did the exact opposite in the mid-1930s. As per usual, maga easily fall for propaganda.

Point 14 - this point was abandoned and ignored. Once in power, the Nazi rejected worker profit-sharing to maintain the crucial support of major industrialists and business owners. Instead of sharing profits with workers, the regime froze wages, banned independent labor unions, replaced them with the state-controlled German Labour Front (DAF), and directed corporate profits toward military rearmament and private business growth. -> it's exactly what the GOP is doing, giving corporations more power and f-ing over the employees. As per usual, maga easily fall for propaganda.

Point 16 - this point was abandoned or subverted. Many small businesses were actually squeezed out, pressured to consolidate, or shut down entirely as resources and labor were funneled into heavy war industries. As per usual, maga easily fall for propaganda.

Point 17 - This point was heavily altered and ultimately not implemented as promised. Large private estates were largely left intact, and land reform was twisted away from redistribution and instead focused on the aggressive colonial acquisition of new agricultural land (Lebensraum) in Eastern Europe. The Nazi wanted and needed the support traditional large landowners and agricultural elites. As per usual, maga easily fall for propaganda.


In the end, all you have done is show to the world just how easily maga fall for propaganda and how they refuse to accept reality. You won't be rewriting freaking nazi history here just because you feel like it offends fascist pedo trump.

Are you saying that the prosecution of the jews was related to the general gun laws that the whole world wants to see implemented in the US? Yeah, the Nazis feared and removed the guns from the hands of jews, gypsies and other minorities and gave them to nazi supporters. It's what a far right fascist regime will naturally do.

"but only if they were good Nazi Party members, vouched for and given a permit by the local Nazi police office." - the gun laws were loosened for germans in general.

Do you see targeted groups in the leftist agenda for such laws? No you don't, that's the job of the far right. They are the ones who are doing the racial profilings right now and are refusing due process, just like the nazis were doing.

"The 1938 law completely deregulated the acquisition and transfer of rifles and shotguns (long guns) as well as ammunition for ordinary German citizens, removing previous purchase-permit requirements for them."
"The legal age for purchasing firearms was lowered from 20 to 18, and the validity period for gun permits was extended from one year to three years."

Tell us more about how trump is a racist fascist. Even if it's done indirectly by you, nonetheless it's fun to see you doing.
 
Yeah, the Nazis feared and removed the guns from the hands of jews, gypsies and other minorities....
...and from their political opponents as well. Anyone who they considered an enemy of the state.
....and gave them to nazi supporters. It's what a far right fascist regime will naturally do.
It's what the far LEFT National Socialists did. No US conservative has ever suggested removing gun rights based on politics or race. But where would the fascist Left be without their lies and disinformation, eh Herr Goebbels? Or should I say General Antonescu, instead?

"...Romania allied with Nazi Germany during WW2. Led by fascist General Ion Antonescu, Romania was a major Axis contributor. It provided vital oil supplies and sent hundreds of thousands of troops to the Eastern Front...."

Nazis yesterday, child traffickers today: Romania has quite the reputation. But hey, at least you've stopped the lie that "Hitler never banned guns".

And your point is? That history exists? Yeah, Romania had to ally with Germany at the start of the war, do you know why? Because Russia was invading us after the agreement between germany and russia. It's why the nation of Moldova exists right now, because of russia invading and taking that territory. Go read about the The Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact (1939) and the USSR ultimatum given to Romania in 1940.

FYI it is literally illegal in Romania to publicly support Antonescu and the fascists from that time period, so take that as you will.

In the end all you are doing is just trying, like all maga, to ignore all that I wrote after I destroyed your entire argument with facts. I proved that you are just somebody who literally buys into nazi propaganda (who the hell does this in 2026???). And I know you'll copy paste that 25-point nazi propaganda everywhere as "historical fact of what happened", even though you know it to be false. Just like everything else you copy paste every single time: only lies and disinformation.

Go tell us more how you support TODAY pedophiles and fascists and how you want to rewrite history by using disinformation.
 
And your point is? That history exists? Yeah, Romania had to ally with Germany at the start of the war, do you know why?
Utterly disgusting. No one "had to ally" with the Nazis and assist them in haulling off hundreds of thousands of innocent Romanian Jews to gas chambers and other execution pits. The mere fact you justify this speaks volumes.

FYI it is literally illegal in Romania to publicly support Antonescu and the fascists from that time period
Yet Romania today continues to backslide into the same fascist rhetoric and acts.

And I know you'll copy paste that 25-point nazi propaganda everywhere
It is the public record of what the Nazis stood for and why German Leftists overthrew the conservative Weimer Republic to install into power the Left-Wing National Socialists.

Not just from Jews and Gypsies, but from their political opponents and anyone the Nazis considered "enemies of the state". And this is what far LEFT regimes do, and advocate for today. No US conservative has ever -- ever -- attempted to ban guns based on racial or political motives.

Also, I notice you've de-facto admitted your earlier errors when you claimed the Nazis "never banned guns". It's progress -- of sorts.

"It is the public record of what the Nazis stood for" = "I believe in nazi election propaganda, not historical facts of what the Nazis did."

Congrants and showing to us exactly who votes for pedophiles like trump.

I admitted nothing, I simply proved you wrong with some of the points you keep copy pasting being 100% false and the rest taken completely out of context and twisted, but you keep mentioning them as if they happened as written in a freaking campaign flyer.

It's pathetic to see people try to rewrite historical NAZI facts.

It's the pure insanity of somebody who believes fascist, racists, rapists, criminals and pedophiles should lead the US. And you love that trump embodies all of those "qualities".

Tell us more about how you do not believe the historical books. It's all you can do.
 
I admitted nothing, I simply proved you wrong
You proved yourself wrong. First you claimed the Nazis "never banned guns", only to finally admit they did. But -- despite every liberal group on the planet today clamoring to do exactly what the Nazis did -- you're still pretending gun banning is "right wing".

But far worse, you outed yourself as a Nazi apologist, stating badly "we had to help the Nazis" commit genocide in your country, and send hundreds of thousands of Romanian Jews to the gas chambers. Let me remind you of what you're excusing, apologist:

"...In June 1941, Romanian police and soldiers slaughtered an estimated 15,000 Jews in IașI, forcing victims into sealed trains where they died of suffocation...."

"...
Between 1941 and 1944, Romanian authorities deported around 150,000 to 250,000 Jews from Bessarabia and Bukovina to the Transnistria region of occupied Ukraine. This area served as a giant open-air killing field, where deportees were subjected to mass shootings, starvation, and rampant disease in camps like Bogdanovka and Domanevka...."

Puiu: "We had to do this! We had to!"
 
"It is the public record of what the Nazis stood for" = "I believe in nazi election propaganda, not historical facts of what the Nazis did."
These are historical facts of not only what the Nazis stood for, but what they actually did. They banned guns, they vastly increased the power of the federal government, they took control of big business and enacted high progressive taxes on the wealthy. All LIBERAL ideals. As for their expansion of welfare:

"Yes, the Nazis significantly expanded the social safety net. They built a massive welfare infrastructure under the concept of the Volksgemeinschaft (people's community) to foster national unity...."

And:

"Similar socialistic developments, influenced by the policies of National Socialist (Nazi) Germany, took place elsewhere in Europe. As Pope states:

“The Nazis […] saw comprehensive social benefits and principles of national solidarity as distinguishing National Socialism from the practice [of] capitalist nations.”

...That is why the Nazis sought to replace the Bismarckian model of earnings-related, pensions with a system of universal flat-rate benefits. In a 1939 speech, Hitler claimed that Britain opposed his regime due to their aversion to “[T]he Germany which sets a dangerous example to them … the Germany of social welfare, of social equality, of the elimination of class differences—this is what they fear...."

I love it when you talk about historical facts and ten go on to ignore historical facts. It's freakign insane to see maga be this ignorant or intentionally blind simply because they don't want trump be associated with fascists.

You only talk about nazi propaganda, not what they actually did, and it's amazing how every maga can't stop falling for propaganda.

I already took all of the points and dissected them 1 by 1, proving just how much you love lies and disinformation with historical facts. And I did it multiple times, but you keep regurgitating these lies.

Like how you fell for what hitler said, you also fell for what fascist pedo trump said. It's just pathetic to see somebody try to rewrite history to defend pedophiles and a mad fascist US president.
 
I love it when you talk about historical facts and ten go on to ignore historical facts.
Except I haven't. In fact, I've repeatedly stated these facts so many times that we've actually made progress in your case. You no longer claim "The Nazis never banned guns". Instead, you admit they did -- but (weirdly enough) pretend this is a "right wing philosophy". You never claim the Nazis didn't publicly espouse a virulently Left-wing agenda or that "Leftists didn't vote the Nazis into power", but now admit all this to be true, but merely brush it aside with "the Nazis were just pretending to be Leftists" and "their supporters were fooled with empty promises"

It's progress. Slow, but progress.

You are simply talking about propaganda, this was established multiple times. Just because you don't believe so doesn't mean you should insult all historian sand all history boos. It's pathetic.

You DO NOT know better than experts in the field. And you are only using lies and disinformation for your "arguments".

"You no longer claim "The Nazis never banned guns"" - WTF is wrong with you dude? They never banned guns, I've said it multiple times. They took the guns from what they believed to be "enemies". That's a major difference that is simply beyond your comprehension. And because you do not understand this, you are wrongfully associating it with proper gun laws that help the world be a better place. These kind of dumb associations are what people call False Equivalence or Illusory Correlation - it's all in your propaganda filled maga mind.

This is what you voted against:

It's just pathetic to see you talk about guns knowing you are objectively in the wrong about them.

"You never claim the Nazis didn't publicly espouse a virulently Left-wing agenda" - it's called nazi propaganda that you somehow believe in freaking 2026. We have a recorded history of what the nazis did - you need to stop this insanity. you are literally making insane arguments on what the nazis promised but never did. Even a child knows better than to do that - but then again, you prefer trump's speeches which sound like they were written by a 5yo problem child with zero education...

But we all know why you do not move beyond the nazi propaganda speeches and promises. Because that would mean that you have to accept that the nazis are far right and that trump is a fascist too. As a maga, you simply cannot accept historical facts like that.

It's pathetic. It's insanity.
