Transcription:

Evil Queen: Mirror mirror, on the wall, who is the fairest of them all?
Mirror: Snow White.

Evil Queen: Hmmm ...

Evil Queen: Mirror mirror on the wall, does that mean there is an objective standard of beauty?
Mirror: Uhh ... yeah sure ...

Evil Queen: So how did you determine your answer? What is the objective standard that you used to determine this?
Mirror: Oh you know, she is just the woman most people would think is most beautiful.
Evil Queen: What? But that's not objective!

Evil Queen: If that were true I don't even have to kill Snow White, I just have to kill enough people who have the hots for her to tip the scales for me.

Mirror: Okay fine, then it is her pale skin.
Evil Queen: That's it, pale skin?
Mirror: Yeah paler the skin, the more beautiful the girl.

Evil Queen: You know ... that almost sounds a little racist, mirror on the wall.

Mirror: And another thing, there are too many immigrants ...

Company also announced a paid service for early access to president’s posts on policies to the social media site

Donald Trump’s media company – which owns the Truth Social platform favored by the US president – posted a $238m loss in the second quarter.

Trump Media & Technology on Monday reported that losses in the three months through June came as the company branched into new ventures including crypto. The company’s new chief executive, Kevin McGurn, announced at a conference call about the earnings that after a yearlong effort to expand into online betting and crypto, the company would be refocusing on social media.
