    Good to see companies making a stand where governments (kinda understandably) won’t.

    In a strongly worded statement, the company criticised a televised event involving U.S. President Donald Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance, referring to it as the “biggest shitshow ever presented live on TV.”

    This from Norway. He’s finding out.

    I wonder what happens to people who piss off oil and military contractors.

      It seems a scary move but at some point you have to do what is right and not what is easy.

    tricky move because they might’ve signed a contract to be their main fuel supplier and they might be in breach right now so fines could be coming.

      There’s a very trump way to deal with fines. Ignore them

      I think this is basically like a mobile gas station company. You call them if you need them and they come out to deliver your stuff. They might not have a contract at all.
