This guy has legitimately lost touch with reality.

Being a billionaire is bad for your brain. Stands to reason the richest guy would be the worst affected.

We gotta start shunning/bullying ppl who work secruity for these mfs, they sellout everyone living when they decide to defend these dudes. They pick money and choose to die for these ppl.

He was never in touch.

I’m sick of hearing about him personally. Just an attention hungry troll in real life. I wish he would just go away to space or maybe take an extended submarine ride underwater that uses a PlayStation controller.

I heard only pedos don't get in the submarine.

I’m sick of hearing about him personally

I remember trying to block all mentions of his name like 10 years ago since it was obvious some kind of PR campaign to promote him was underway.

When you've lived your whole life without the struggle that the majority of humans in history have had to endure (food, shelter, clothing, etc.) and have never faced consequences for any of your shitty ideas, then yeah, you sort of build yourself your own version of reality, because to Muskrat, what is reality?

He's never lived in the same world as any of us. It's difficult to explain, but that's the truth. He's never lived in the same reality as everyone else. Most billionaires and trust fund babies have their own version of reality and are constantly confused over why and how people do things like: buy groceries, or a dozen donuts.
