social media has done enormous amounts of damage but maybe the worst of it is driving the tech and finance bros completely insane all the weird rich guys spend all their time losing their minds online instead of going on vacation to the bahamas or some shit

rich traditions

i checked yesterday and bill ackman has been tweeting nonstop about Mamdani for days if not weeks. used to be you'd see a guy crashing out obsessively like this on a web forum and you'd toss them in the crank file. now it's just Normal Billionaire Behavior

This is the conservative mindset in a nutshell. "I deserve accolades because I'm so brilliant and everyone else is an idiot/woke/DEI/shill."

Yeah this about 1000%. They are giant losers who managed to get enough money so everyone kisses their ass and pretends they are not losers. And then actual people who don't need to kiss their ass see right through their bullshit to the asshole loser inside and call them out on it endlessly.

I never forgot the anecdote in 'Careless People' that Zuckerberg's Facebook employees would regularly let him win at Settler of Catan and similiar games.

Tbf this is exactly what has broken the minds of the pundit classes as well. 1999: "I have lavished my thoughts on the fortunate public and shall now bask in the glow of friendly interviewers." 2019: "... and shall now..." [some user] "YOUR IDEAS SUCK" "Zounds! Cancel culture!"

It’s basically this.
