    Having fallen in love with Carmen Miranda before reading La United Fruit Company stilllll sucks.

    Also add Blackwater to this list. Warcrimes and looting by American plutocratic mercenaries and now their name is not obviously pronounceable. They did an amazingly good [bad for everyone but them] rename.

      Also add Blackwater to this list.

      They’ve changed names so many times I guess you missed that it was already there:

      • Constellis Holdings, née Academi, née Xe Services, née Blackwater

        Oh. My. Fucking. God.

        Is there a makemesuffer community (with more than 0 posts)? Because that’s where this belongs. Jesus Christ.
