Post #10061 by Banksy on the Berkshire Hathaway board

When visiting Shrewd'm with a laptop, it can be pleasant to hold Command (or Ctrl with Windows) and '+' a few times. The site scales to allow any font size, and the larger font can be pleasant to read even for Shrewds with perfect sight! For luxury Shrewdness, you can combine that with setting the browser to full screen. You'll then find yourself Shrewding a lot.

I think it's likely that in today's hyper-partisan backdrop, Buffett doesn't want half the country to boycott any of Berkshire's subsidiaries. Remember why he shut down the charitable giving program? He also doesn't want to risk the safety of any of Berkshire's employees based on people's reactions to his personal decision to endorse Harris.

Agree 100%. In todays bitterly ultra-partisan world words have consequences.
For example: Retired United States Army General and real hero, Mark A. Milley spoke out saying Trump is "The most dangerous person to this country. A fascist to the core."
General Milley has since received "a non-stop barrage of death threats." (He has installed bullet-proof glass in his residence.)
