I've met a few and they have all been solely focused on maximizing their wealth with little consideration for the second+ order effects. It's anecdotal, but I'll take first hand information over self-serving comms-fodder.

Speaking of comments, I've seen yours on here. So much hate; so much toxicity. What exactly are you contributing here beyond discord? Maybe get your own demons in check and stop projecting.

Well I'm not on here very much and don't comment very much but sure I'll give this a shot:

The rejection of populist ideas that have pushed many into celebrating political violence and death. Want examples?

The rejection of the vicious cycle of envy that has been brewing in these comments and other platforms like this one that is the path that directly leads to above.

Is this a Peter Thiel smurf account or something? I'm going to disengage from you and whatever brand of twisted sychophantic (re: "envious") proselytism this is, now. It's boring and certainly not engendering any support for your cause. Quite the opposite. Maybe you should try to post even less, as it would do more for your cause.

Please disengage if you're not getting anything out of it. I'm sure letting random billionaires live rent-free in your head is deriving much more value for your life. It's not a rocket launch, you don't need to announce that you're disengaging.
