Did he elaborate further on what that means? Seriously, where's the original tweet? there's no way nobody ask this racist twat in replies to explain to layman non-philosophers like us what is n-word rich billionares, and what he sees as a problem with his best friends Peter Thiel and Elon Musk? does he mean they they are leeching lazy mutants on society? does he meam they exaggerate or waste their wealth where it should not go? Is he criticizing them or is he actually with classism and billionares but just wants them to get their act together and invest in better things? is that something of the billionare-class shortcomings or does he oppose America's form of capitilism which lead to their existence?

That's not even a sensible usage of "exception proves the rule". Not surprised a shithead uses language poorly.

What does he even mean by this?

[–] A_norny_mousse@feddit.org 9 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Devoid of all meaning except for being unmistakably racist. And not the mild, everyday kind either.

edit: there's already two sibling comments with almost opposite interpretations. Fuck that shit, I don't need to understand the finer (?) points to know that Yarvin & Thiel are horrible people who have way too much influence. And I bet half the time Yarvin doesn't even understand it himself, he just needs to keep the controversy boiling.

Oh Curtis Yavin, JD Vance's favourite political philosopher.

He is really fucking dumb, in addition to, being an absolute piece of shit.

[–] theneverfox@pawb.social 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You know what... You run with that. I have no idea wtf it means, but if you stay pointed at the billionaires...

Well, a piece of shit launched at my enemy isn't my friend, but I'm not going to get in it's way either

[–] bravesentry@feddit.org 16 points 2 months ago (1 children)

he apparently has no problem with the billionaire part of their existence, so no. fuck him.

How can someone even think this makes sense lmao.

"You can probably name exceptions." Indeed, I can literally only name exceptions wtf

peter thiels bestie, was allegedly defenestrated last year, his boytoy , not his husband. also the fact the p2025 and heritage foundation is funded by thiel himself, but the endgame doesnt include "people" like THIEL in thier society.

thiel likes to do things behind the scenes, so he avoids any responsibilities, plus hes gay so he would face much resistance in his policies if he was up and front, like the log cabin people.

~~A century ago~~ fuck! About a century and a quarter ago this was the sentiment regarding new-money industrialists by old money landlords.

Remove the racist layer and it's class conflict all the way down.

That's not even what "the exception proves the rule" means, this is on the same level as braindead idiots using "the customer is always right!"

Our problem is niner billionaires?

Or is he referring to black people while being a giant dildo?

If so, I have a serious question? How many black people out there are billionaires? Seriously, of all billionaires in the world, how many are black? I mean, I'm sure there are some but I have never heard of them.

of all problems with billionaires, skin color seriously seriously is the least.
