    Two things: 1) Tom Friedman is an imbecile. 2) Is Ritz Carlton enabling torture? If so, an international boycott is in order.https://twitter.com/KenRoth/status/944906445560172545 …

        Is that Ritz Carlton location owned by the Starwood/Marriott corporate parent, or is it a franchisee, paying Starwood/Marriott to license the name? International locations of big chains are often franchisees. Might be grounds for revocation of the license.

        mbs is a liberal reformer, in that he reforms peoples’ appearances with a liberal application of torture

        Surely there must be some way to bring charges against corporate higher-ups who permit the use of their facilities for torture.

        I think this is insane, infuriating, beyond belief and a host of other more colorful adjectives and adverbs . I doubt the ritz had much of a choice

        Yeah, it's a franchise and so Marriott can (and should!) be shamed to dissociate from what's happening.

        when you call someone an imbecile but don't state why, pretty much a dead giveaway you've got nothing
