Louis is doing god's work in right to repair. Hope he succeeds. I wonder what Hunter Thompson would say about Verge today.

He wouldn’t care about it because The Verge has nothing to do with politics. What do you think he would say?
Thompson actually had quite diverse interests, ranging far abroad from politics.
Honestly, I miss it when he used to just make technical repair videos. Luckily Northridge Fix[0] fills that gap now.

I've never said this about anyone in tech, but I feel Louis Rossman should run for the Senate, or the House.

I've kept an eye on him for years, and think he's honest, and trustworthy. He does not appear to be a sellout in the slightest.

Becomming a politician doesn't sound like the life he wants, but we need guys like Louis running our country.

(It's not that crazy. A few years ago Zuck thought he had a chance in politics. His yes men put him on tractors in the midwest with a cowboy hat. I even think they had him sucking on a stick of wheat? All I knew is they picked the wrong guy. Zuck was a joke on so many levels though, --even then. How a young man can make so many ugly decisions so quick is beyond me. I guess that's why he's a 1 percenter? Nice fair people don't become wealthy. He was just about his money, and his narcisstic life. Louis seems just honest, and cares about what's fair. He never asked to be the spokesman for Right to Repair. He was just, like I was, irritated over pricy items we can't fix.)

> 1 percenter

Zucc has 2% of all wealth owned by American Millennials. Singlehandedly. The other 98% is owned by everyone else in his generation.

1 percenter? Yeah technically he's in the 99th percentile, but technically he's in the 50th percentile as well....

Edit: Rossman, a successful business owner and YouTube personality, is clearly a 1 percenter as well. Just to further illustrate what a silly thing that is to say about the Zucc.

Someone once said Zuck has all the charm of a talking parking meter. Truer words, etc. </hatering>
