Today in dubious outrage:

"Mossack Fonseca powers activate!"
"Form of...a tax shelter!"
"Shape of...jurisdictional roadblocks!"

Jurgan Mossack and Ramon Fonseca are outraged I tell you. Outraged. So who are they and why are they outraged? Good questions. Who they are are lawyers. But with their powers combined they are: Mossack Fonseca, a law firm that manages wealth and incorporates companies in the British Virgin Islands for rich people from all over the world who are simply above paying taxes. And they're outraged because there's a movie about their many crimes and they're upset that it might make them look bad. So upset that they're suing Netflix.

"Ugh..."

-Everyone who saw Bright

And look, they're plenty of reasons to be upset with Netflix. Did you see Bright? No? Me neither, but you probably could sue them over it. But in the streaming service's defense, Mossack and Fonseca did, for decades operate an offshore tax shelter for the world's millionaires and billionaires. But then the whole thing blew up back in 2016 in the Panama Papers scandal when a German newspaper got a hold of eleven million documents from the firm outing hundreds of famous people and political leaders as big fat tax dodgers.

Huh? No, remarkably enough Trump isn't implicated in this particular scandal. Although we did learn today about a brand new financial scam wherein he's been lying to the State of New York about income from his rental properties. So what, I guess we'll just add that to the list of crimes then...

"Joe Biden's son something something..."

reality show host, The President

Anyway, back to the lawsuit. Mossack and Fonseca accuse Netflix of defamation which presupposes they had some fame to begin with, right? Like, do they feel that this movie is tarnishing their good name? They run a haven for shady business run by the absurdly wealthy, oligarchs and I'm guessing straight up criminals. Unless this movie has them hunting puppies for sport how is it defamation? Sure, the immoral wealthy people who use their services share some blame here, but-huh? Yeah, I guess I wouldn't put puppy-hunting past them.

Now they're also accusing the filmmakers of making it impossible for them to get a fair trail, arguing that the movie will prejudice any potential jurors. And I can almost see their point. They are entitled to a fair trail. It's the law. Of course it's also the law that people have pay taxes, so it's interesting that they're suddenly huge fans of the law.

These are guys who make their money helping other rich people screw their home
 countries out of tax revenue. Netflix cast Gary Oldman and Antonio Banderas.
Kinda seems like we should be worried about Oldman and Banderas' reputations.
