Lol it's funny how the only thing he cares about is getting even more money when being 80 he's obviously going to go out soon. What's the point.

The billionaire class are diseased subhuhumans incapable of moral and ethical thought. They should be culled from the population to prevent any further societal contamination.

I saw a clip yesterday of him around Larry Ellison and he was acting like a deferential child. Does he think money gives you value?

[–] northernlights@lemmy.today 1 points 3 weeks ago

Obviously. Money and power are his only 2 values i'm pretty sure.

It's his addiction and it's the only thing that gives his life value . Plus he's just a selfish greedy POS

[–] Aralakh@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 weeks ago

Thought it was the actor, Rob Lowe, uncanny.

"Wheels within wheels" as they say. Between this and AI generated video we have no real sources of verifiable information left.

So, what do we do now?

[–] crispbacon99@lemmy.zip 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Okay and when this gets reversed they can't hide from the VAST amount of crimes commited before they ended the rule.

It's the US - they'll just be fined a fraction of the profits made.
