The company destroying YOUR White House without YOUR permission is Aceco LLC. Vote with your dollars people: let’s make sure this company never gets any business ever again and goes under.
I love the sentiment, but Trump’s sycophants will simply contact Google and all those negative reviews will disappear.
Edit: They’re already doing it
The company’s rating dropped at one point to 1.8 stars, until Google revised it to 4.1.
Removing review bombs is automated. This happens every single time a business gets negative attention. And every single time people still do it anyways.
Google is complicit
Actively participating is not complicity.
If trump would give a shit, which he doesnt
But the construction company and Trump’s maggots do.
you could make a meme out of it that just keeps echoing through the internet like the whole Four Seasons thing.
Or you could
Call them and tell them yourself.

Honestly this is all such a distraction. Whitehouse has been extended and rebuilt before. Should he have gotten permission? Yes. But is anyone surprised he didnt?
Release the epstein files.
You think the Epstein files are the important thing being distracted from? You honestly believe anything would change if they were released?
They are the real distraction at this point.
No.
Always point out that every republican representative is actively and aggressively supporting people who put their 50 year old penises in 14 year old girls and/or boys.
That’s what they mean by “family values”.
Doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be released.
Edit: not sure if that’s your point but it seems to be the implication of your statement.
I have this strong mental image of MAGAts hearing about this and hiring these guys to knock down the houses they live in to own the libs. I mean they already voted in a rapist conman who was guaranteed to sink the economy to do the same, I’m wondering if there is any limit to the masochism they will indulge in to hurt other people.
I don’t know if liberaldom could recover from being owned so completely!
company name change incoming
Definitely. It’s just a LLC, they’ll dissolve it and start another once they finish.
Canada would have done it free of charge, just like Canada did in 1812.
Sounds like a fun alternative to the movie Red Dawn, where Canadians overtake America.
Yes please. I want to go there anyways. Would be nice to be governed by some place more sensible. I know it’s not perfect but it’s leagues better than we have here at the moment.
Canada didn’t do anything in 1812. It was the British army. Canada didn’t even exist until 1867.
It was British settlers actually, who became Canadians.
unlikely, that was 55 years later.
Your tax dollars at work. The in-group doesn’t pay taxes.
If they get paid.
They’re getting paid by the government, not trump personally - I’m assuming they’ll get paid much more than the job is actually worth, possibly as payment for some previous or future job for trump. There will be some angle to every contact issued for the whole project.
Assignment understood. Done.
Reviews are being removed. But don’t let that stop you. (301) 588-0707
Their site currently claims to be under construction. Or have they been demolished?!
Next their webshite will be a room full of balls (I assume that’s what is getting erect over the rose garden?).
Lib discourse is so wild.
Let’s be clear: taking action like boycotts or whatever against companies collaborating with fascists is 100% appropriate and valid. But there’s so many companies that are complicit in much worse ways than bulldozing the White House. Why should I even give a shit about the White House? How about instead we pressure corporations that are involved in manufacturing weapons and bombs for the regime? Or companies that provide it with data, surveillance, and technical support? You know, the companies that give the admistration material power over people?
By all means, knock yourself out doing this, I’m just confused why everyone is so invested in the White House. But if I had to guess, I’d say it’s because it’s a way of reaffirming loyalty to the state while criticizing it, making the criticism safely toothless. Me, I’d just say that all he did was save us the trouble of knocking it down ourselves.
Libs dont have a coherent moral or political worldview. They are preoccupied with aesthetics and decorum. It is why the libs will not be involved in material change for the better. They simply lack the imagination or will.
EDIT: I worry that people are taking that I am on the side of the Trump admin. I am to the left of the democrats and that is the basis for my disappointment and criticism.
What gets me is that the side pearl-clutching over the White House is arguably more correct than the side pearl-clutching over the demolition company. But, like, how are those the two sides lmao
Ah yeah you got him, Americans, really showed him. Oooo bad reviews I’m sure he’ll be shivering in his sheets.
If they don’t stop immediately the people will go for the ultimate weapon - Strongly Worded Tweets!
Yeah, it’ll look just great when it’s done though. Really fit in with the aesthetic.
I mean, why? They accepted a government contract, they didn’t do anything wrong.
While i disagree, i’m shocked how many other people disagree too, but bever when they invade other countries, because these vrave war criminals never have achoice and just do what they’re told.
Maybe the same outcome of the construction workers on the Deathstar II?
i don’t think that people hire such companies based on google reviews
as did someone building concentration camps. you have free will to accept or don’t accept any contract and live with consequences.
but to put your mind at ease - i am pretty sure that customers of such companies don’t hire them based on google reviews, so don’t worry, the demolition company is probably safe.
It’s a ball room, not a concentration camp. Critizing the companies who take contracts for core civic or whomever agreed to build that prison in Florida to lock up immigrants would make sense, but this just seems dumb to me.

If Hitler had survived long enough to see his (and Albert Speer’s) vision of Berlin fulfilled, would you be ok with the contractors who decided to work on those projects?
Google is actively funding the project, and we go to Google services to help fund Google to “rebel” against this 1 LLC, even ignoring the other complany who bid on the contract. I get why people think they should boycott them, but no one here will be contracting this company for anything… so why not boycott Google, Microsoft, and Amazon who are actively enabling this regime. (All paying money towards this ball room being built)
People are. You can boycott more than one thing at a time.
People here compare this to providing poison to murder people. Simply deranged.
I hope ppl would do more in that case than to just simply write bad reviews.
Is is amazing how easy it is to locate people who are complete moral vacuums. You are a shit person.
This is how “the left” can not win. Antagonizing the most niche, far away thing and then saving things like that when someone disagrees.
Your idea of “winning” is to sell your soul, and be inhuman.
I fully expect they’re buddies with Trump somewhere high up or they wouldn’t have been given the contract.
IG Farben agreed to supply canned pesticide to the Nazis. It was just a government contract too. And guess what: they found out it was a poor business decision after the war.
Only 13 of IG Farben received prison terms, from 1.5 to 8 years, then received senior positions on the successor companies after.
And Amazon provides services for government websites through AWS, are you thinking everyone is going to abandon every product that uses AWS as well? Or are we just targeting low hanging fruit?
To be entirely clear, that would be ideal. AWS is far too powerful for anyone’s good

The ones that we viably can, sure. That might change depending on the person, and their needs.

I doubt we could find many sites that don’t have some ties/business with the U.S. government. I assume most of Lemmy has ties to AWS or Cloudflare who both support government sites. Lemmy.world uses Cloudflare.
My point was trying to get some random llc shutdown doesn’t do anything. All that will happen is people looking down at others while really supporting much larger bigger-issue companies.

The government is a small part of Amazon’s giant business and most of it is just continuing on from before the government went fascist. This company is making a significant portion of their work destroying the fucking White House under a shady plan. There’s a reason this single act is getting more attention than Amazon hosting government servers.
I think it’s a lot more accurate to say these companies were enabling it rather than some random llc that bid on the contract. It would make more sense to stop using all of their services/products.
" dinner for potential donors held at the White House on 15 October included senior executives from prominent US companies including Blackstone, OpenAI, Microsoft, Coinbase, Palantir, Lockheed Martin, Microsoft, Amazon and Google.
Also present was Woody Johnson, the owner of the New York Jets NFL team, and Shari and Edward Glazer, who, together with their siblings, own both the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Manchester United.
A pledge form seen by CBS News, the BBC’s US partner, suggested that donors could be eligible for “recognition” for their contributions. While plans are still being finalised, that recognition could potentially take the form of names etched into the structure."
A principled construction firm does not destroy national landmarks. This isn’t a blind contract, they knew what they’d be doing. I really don’t know why you’re going so hard for them. It’s not that complicated.
are you thinking everyone is going to abandon
everyone? no. someone? yes.
IBM just supplied some accounting machines to Weinmar Germany (they knew what they were counting).
Aside from the obvious nazi collaboration points I think that any person. Or any company. Or any thing, entity, etc etc that works for, or with, the orange rapist should not only get boycotted at the very minimum. But also to be ridiculed and investigated with a fine toothed comb.
The tactic should be to find out what other dodgy shit they are doing and bring them down in every and any way possible.Why go to these extremes, you may ask. Simple, if the kiddie fiddling conman had had this treatment in the 80s and 90s then he’d not be able to get away with his shit now, and none of this would be happening now.
With the huge added bonus of numerous women and kids not being sexually assaulted and raped over those years.When it comes to investigating Donvict Drumpf, his actions, and his collaborators then the question isn’t why, it’s why not.
“I mean why? They were just following orders, they didn’t do anything wrong”
Following illegal orders is the thing they did wrong, Cletus.
Hahaha you should leave a review saying something to that effect.
There were no proper authorities issued to demolish the WH. The agencies that do those authorities, weren’t even consulted. This is an illegal, midnight-style demolition, and I guarantee you that the demo company does NOT have the correct permits. If Donny 2 Inches issued the order, it is an ILLEGAL one, and obeying illegal orders (paying attention, ICE cunts ?) is no excuse in a court of law.
While I agree with you, every permit giving agency would have to be under the executive branch and thereby deemed reporting to the president according to the supreme Court rulings at this point. He’s a king in all but name. As soon as he decided to “lift” the sanctions on Russia by simply ordering/dissolving the entities that were supposed to upkeep the laws made by the legislature, he should have been impeached by the house, and removed by the Senate. Yet the Senate would not vote to, so everything he does on federal land (a lot of D.C. because Republicans refused to allow it to be a state) has no one to argue his actions oppose the laws of another body, and thereby have near no protections against his actions.
When you accept a government contract from a fascist government then you did something wrong.
All the negative reviews have already been removed by google. They currently have only 4 reviews.
Of course it did. Google is a fascist collaborator. Just like all the other Big Tech companies.
That’s the very definition of Fascism: it comes from the world “fasces”, which is Latin for “bundles”, describing industry and the state working together in cahoots.
Uhhh, I dislike Google as much as the next guy but from a company standpoint this is likely completely automated with no thought or choice behind the action. They deal with fake reviews constantly and while we think these are valid, they are not real.
Looks like Google already removed all of them.
Keep adding more
We must use the old ways. (301) 588-0707
It’s interesting how quickly & fervorously people will defend private capital from the smallest of infractions.
In this case it’s just bad reviews, a form of peaceful public protest, the company will still earn a lot of profit.
Worst case is other customers might not want a gov contractor.But yeah, “companies must do anything for max profit” is a systemic religion.
I don’t know why anyone treats that as a defense of companies. Sounds more like a problem statement than acceptable reasoning.
Even shareholders are hurt by the mindless drive to maximize profit because they still have to live in a world where everyone is trying to make the most for the least.
