Charge him then. Fucking fascist twerp.
"Exposed to" is not "charged with"
There very well could be Grand Juries seated in those states to do just that. You & I won't know until it happens.
His father is Charles Coristine, who bought the snack company LesserEvil in 2011 and runs it as chief executive. His maternal grandfather was Valery Martynov, a KGB lieutenant colonel who spied for the FBI and CIA in the 1980s and was executed in Moscow in 1987 after Aldrich Ames and Robert Hanssen betrayed him. Coristine has said on Fox News that his grandfather “died so that I could come here and live in this free country that I love so much.”
Jesus Christ, no wonder his politics are fucked.
His grandfather was a double traitor who only cared for personal gain and money. He got what was coming to him.
Meanwhile he is following in his grandfather's footsteps by being a complete parasite and sack of shit to the country he lives in.
LesserEvil? As in the popcorn with avocado oil seen in many health food stores? What?
Yup. I boycott that brand hard and I tell everyone I know to stay away from it.
Geeze, TIL.
I really hate that every cent we spend that doesn't go to like, struggling indie artists we enjoy, goes straight into the pockets of people actively obsessed with making our existence miserable.
Dang. It's really good popcorn. Why couldn't he buy a worse brand...
This is why you always want to get law enforcement credentials before doing fascist errands. Law enforcement gets qualified immunity; civilian contractors are patsies.
Qualified immunity means that cops are protected from being personally targeted for civil lawsuits.
The effective immunity they de facto enjoy is MUCH more complete, though.
For every cop shooting where the cop suffers so much as an unpaid suspension, there's dozens if not hundreds that get off scot free after committing all crimes up to and including serial murder.
I don't disagree, I was just correcting the wrong use of a term.
Oh, law enforcement ends up being above the law in many cases. For example, tinting on windshields in California. Cops get 100%, everyone else has to follow certain % rules so cops can feel safe during traffic stops. This is just a minor example.
Every time I see a picture of him, I think "Big Balls" must be one of those ironic nicknames.
I remember some actual military veteran explaining that they almost never give the toughest fighters badass nicknames. You can kid around with guys with nicknames like 'Big Balls' or 'Killer' but run away from the guy they call 'Kitten' or 'Candy.'
If the handful of veterans that I know are anything to go by, military nicknames are often directly related to the dumbest mistake they made during their enlistment.
doge hellbent on putting the onion out of business
Did they not realize they would always be the fall guys?
They're a bunch rich nepobabies who have failed upwards their whole life (as an example Swollen Testicles here is the heir to Lesser Evil snacks), they probably viewed this as yet another "smash and grab" corporate looting to use as a step up to their next jobs. I'm honestly skeptical that they'll end up as fall guys, after all the Trump administration has shown that crime is legal as long as you've got a R next to your name.

Well that's irritating. Some of their popcorn is delicious.
I should have trusted my logic that a company called "Lesser Evil" is still admitting it's evil, its main selling point being "Our competition is more-er evil" ...
...presupposing that "Not evil" simply isn't an option in our socioeconomic system. Because of course.
"You should never grade Evils, because if one is the worst, you might be tempted kinship with the least."
People don't think it is like it is. But it do . Sure reality has edge cases and exeptions... but yeee
Does someone who calls themself "Big Balls" strike you as intelligent?
No, no they did not. They thought Daddy Musk and Daddy Trump would always be there for them.
No, they thought they were the cyberpunk hackers going against the evil government and they are all cool and underground and shit (even if they had the backing of the most powerful man in the country and the richest man on earth).
Every single one of them need lengthy prison sentences. "Just following Elon's instructions" should not be an adequate defense.
lmao what is this from
It's always the ones you expect the most.
please don't expose any big balls anywhere, thanks
...please don't expose any ~~big~~ conservative balls anywhere...
FTFY (Some of us can appreciate a nice big pair of balls, as long as they aren't attached to something pure evil like a conservative.)
Good. I hope he spills everything on Elon.
He will be Epsteined before that happens.
There is a reason they got a stupid naive kid to do their dirty work. He is the fall guy they can blame, and yes, if he spills the beans he will fall out of a window, or something or that nature.
Elon is happy, all the investigations against his companies have been stopped fully.
Window is Russia.
In the US, people shoot themselves in the back of the head.
I doubt this kid even has any dirt on Elon.
He was a stupid true believer who thought someone had finally recognized the genius he thinks he is and now its time for him to be hung out to dry.
He looks like someone with very small balls tbh
He looks like the male version of the “Ehrmagerd” girl.
Throw him to the Sarlacc
I look at things like this and figure that is why Im having a hard time finding work.
You have morals and ethics. It's a lot easier to make money without them
I wanna see people like ‘Big Balls,’ or Ed, as we call him colloquially.
My name is Sir Donut Fucker Vibrating Butt Plug III but my friends call me John
The Ballad of Big Balls by Jesse Welles
When I heard the NRA was writing big-ass cheques
I went right down to Virginia and I said “me next”
They said go ye to the schools and spread the good news
I said I need a bulletproof vest and some good running shoes
They said “we got those” I said “cool, where at?”
They said “they’re next to the spoons making everyone fat”
Now I was rolling my eyes like a rolling stone
When uncle Huckabee called me on the telephone
He said “I’m raising up money for a people in need”
I said “of course, uncle Huck’, that strip is starving indeed”
He said “the lord’s at work here, boy, and the job ain’t done
Son you need Jesus, and Jesus needs guns”
It makes no sense
One man’s terror’s another man’s defence
When the Holy Golden Toad spat him out of his mouth
The technobillionaire goblin was about KO’d out
But he left behind Big Balls like some vestigial tail
And them balls went to town and they got beat all to hell
Some days the DOGE-ing is easy, some days the DOGE-ing is hard
When the DOGE-ing don’t work, you’d better call in the guard
The citrus Caesar and the Theilian prince
Were throwing it all at the wall just to see what would stick
Even I got distracted, that weather was bad
That was the ICE-iest summer that I’ve ever had
Some days I forget that Cracker Barrels exist
But there ain’t no one forgetting about that list
It makes no sense
One man’s crime’s another man’s intelligence
The Nostradamus of Austin cried out to the lord
He said “them frogs might be gay but I’ll still be your sword”
While television anchors talked at the air
Does a lie make a noise if there ain’t nobody there?
“This ain’t no country for cable” said the wisest of men
Honey, crank up that Tucker while I pack me a zyn
It was getting kind of late so I went back to the morgue
They were doing the autopsy of July 4th
I said “hold the scalpel boys! She ain’t dead yet
I got a parlay on China, we can still win the bet”
The technician was drunk on Muskadine wine
He said “I’m going to Mars” I said “good riddance, goodbye”
It makes no sense
You can leave if you want, but, all your problems go with
He and the rest of his cronies should die in prison after a long, unhappy life.
It’s always the ones who you suspect the most.
We live in the dumbest timeline.
A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
