I wonder if Kimball, Leon's brother, is involved and quietly working behind the scenes.

does he somehow hate success too?

[-] FreakinSteve@lemmy.world 19 points 1 day ago

Genuinely a retard and yes that is the correct word and stop trying to police it.

None of them are geniuses, it's just really hard to lose at capitalism when you have capital.

Its a human blind spot. A lot of people confuse wealth for intelligence. In lower socio-economic levels, succeeding involves a lot of intelligence. Its a fucking struggle. Lots of fish trying to eat each other and take what little resources we have. One fuck up and it's all over. So anyone that is succeeding is also someone that with enough intelligence to foresee pitfalls and avoid them or escape with their wealth.

Those values are used to evaluate the people at the top which are swimming in a whole different pond. The neopotism and safety nets built into the upper crust of society is not part of the calculation that a lot of people use to factor into how they see these people. They still apply the same dog eat dog mentality to the upper crust of society.

Don't forget completely mismanaging Twitter, and turning it into even more of a cesspool.

[-] psmgx@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

that may have been entirely or mostly intentional, because it's now 100% a right-wing propaganda machine and it got Trump elected

[-] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 day ago

Don't forget the lying. He always always lies to sell his shit, always has for decades now, and it works, people always lapped yo every dumb bullshit that came out of his mouth

I wonder if the trump cult also now hates him after saying he was the goat for the last 6 months.

[-] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

What's worse, democrats are already forming a line to kiss his nazi ass.

[-] skepticalifornia@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Who is? I know this is the narrative on Fox News, but I've yet to see any major Dems doing this.

He already has fuck you money so he doesn't give any fucks.

[-] Contemporarium@lemm.ee 28 points 1 day ago

Are you serious? He wants people to think he’s cool SO bad it’s genuinely so pathetic lol. All the other billionaires you could say that. But Elon is so desperate for people to think he’s this funny cool based guy it’s hilarious
