A question so nice they asked it twice! I’d also fail #38
And the question about bias in an election year. Isn’t that kind of the point? He committed the felonies in an effort to secure to 2016 election, so you disregard that because… He might do it again??

That's presumably why the oligarchs behind the capitalist company (#38 on the Fortune 500) are despreately jettisoning technology they can no longer collect royalties from, and mandating tech that's still under patent.

NME lists Agust D's D-Day as #38 in its Best Albums of the Year 2023.
“Future’s gonna be OK,” Agust D – aka BTS rapper Suga – declared in the opening line of ‘D-Day’. The fiery album wrapped up his trilogy of solo releases with more sharp, thought-provoking societal observations and reflections on his own life, but with room for a new sense of peace, acceptance and hope. That it was all set to hard-hitting hip-hop and featured starry collabs with BTS’ J-Hope, late Japanese composer Ryuichi Sakamoto and more only made ‘D-Day’ more spectacular.
