Facebook hired a full-time pollster to monitor Zuckerberg’s approval ratings

He works towards being seen as a leader. He’s got 100M Facebook followers already. I guess mostly by forcing himself on his users … I repeatedly get the recommendation to follow him.

The first time I got him as recommendation I got creeped out. They now disguise this push under the umbrella of staying in touch with Facebook and list additional pages like Facebook Engineering.

I think in a few years, as FB’s popularity craters and awareness of their terrible practices becomes more widespread, that notion will seem even more comical than it does today.

I don't know the american political system, so let me ask this: Why does Zuckerberg need to be president, if he can rule the world from the FB throne?

More power?

Would not be at all surprising, although plain old narcissism could be behind it as well.

I think there is a strong correlation between plain old narcissism and presidential plans.

Indeed, although I would posit that while every presidential; candidate is a narcissist, not every narcissist runs for President.
