If I were making tons of cash on AI speculation I would say that, too. Doesn't make it accurate. Facts tell a different story.

One thing that's become very clear is that all these billionaires are not smart people. Most of them were born on 3rd base or just got lucky.

But their are not wise or worth listening to.

In fact most of them are just shitty dumb pieces of shit psychopaths

The psychopath (at the bare minimum sociopath) part is important. You can't get there without dehumanising your workers.

Ooh also don't forget the wealthy connections you can make from being a pedophile.

Mark my words, Jeff is positioning himself to eventually run for president.

[–] NottaLottaOcelot@lemmy.ca 13 points 1 day ago

He does check all the boxes for the American electorate

✅ Self interested - “A success story!”

✅ Blames poor people for their poverty - “Why don’t you just work harder?”

✅ Avoids paying taxes - “When I’m a billionaire, I won’t want to pay either!”

✅ Does not understand that revenue from tax dollars should be used to support social programs and government services that are not specifically profit generating (food programs, emergency preparedness, environmental conservation, mail to remote areas, etc) - “The government should be run like a business”

Make the guillotine great again

[–] melsaskca@lemmy.ca 54 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Imagine that! All the billionaires defending each other. Go figure!

[–] humorlessrepost@lemmy.world 13 points 2 days ago (3 children)

It’s like they have some sort of solidarity. One based on their class. Seems like an idea that could greatly benefit them.

[–] FistingEnthusiast@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

And yet they hate each other, because they covet each other's wealth

They're so envious, when they have no need to be

It's an illness

The only cure is the guillotine

Being completely wrong on all topics is an accomplishment on its own.

[–] PerogiBoi@lemmy.ca 12 points 2 days ago (1 children)

What sorts of salads and sides would go well with him?

[–] FistingEnthusiast@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

I'd feed him to my dog

But while he's still alive

(my dog is about as harmless as it gets, he's old, missing many teeth and just wants to sleep and cuddle, but still...)

I'd wager that Bezos tastes bitter, sour and otherwise unpleasant

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Don't do that to your poor dog. Let's just treat Jeff like government cheese, stored in slices in a cave, because nobody wants to eat it.

[–] EndlessNightmare@reddthat.com 9 points 2 days ago

It takes dedication and really going the extra mile to be so diabolically shitty.

Well what did you expect, him to come out and say "yes, billionaires are detrimental to society"?

The police investigated themselves and found nothing wrong.

Hey a rich out of touch asshole who has nothing in common with his fellow man has an opinion about something!

I bet he knows what he's talking about!

[–] madcaesar@lemmy.world 40 points 2 days ago (7 children)

These billionaire ghouls just don't know when to stfu

I honestly cannot imagine being THAT rich, being able to do anything, and still being such a massive piece of shit

[–] CitizenKong@lemmy.world 44 points 2 days ago (1 children)

You don't get to be that rich without being a massive piece of shit.

[–] Stern@lemmy.world 18 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

Exactly. Average asshole gets a billion, they get a financial advisor, let their money turn into generational wealth with investments, and donate to charity while living in a big mansion.

The billionaires we have are more of mentally sick wannabe dragons, the horde will never be big enough to satisfy them.

Exactly. They have so much money they could fuck off somewhere and live the rest of their lives and their families in sumptous luxury without even having made a dent in their fortune. Yet they continue to stick around and work hard at ruining everything for the rest of us, just so that they can add extra billions to their billions.

Oh, so the cartoonishly evil CEO said the evil rogues gallery of CEOs isn't evil? It's also so funny how he could say "no, young worker's jobs aren't in that much danger." Then mark fuckerberg goes on stage saying how many people he's replaced with ai. Wholly shit its impossible.

Unrelatable dickhead expresses an opinion, promptly ignored.

Nothing will change until they fear for their lives.

Just wanted to throw down the reminder that health insurance companies, for a brief moment, didn't deny nearly as many claims.

Sometimes violence is the answer.

Strange how a man who stands to make billions more from this, thinks all those opposed to it are wrong.

Guessing it’s due to his vast and deep knowledge of the subject, after long and careful scientific and sociologic research.

[–] spaghettiwestern@sh.itjust.works 78 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (12 children)

Borrowed $250k ($550k in today's money) from his family to start Amazon, has so much money now that money has ceased to have meaning. This asshole has never lived a normal life and yet he thinks he knows what kind of problems people are facing today.

I am starting to downvote these posts. I know what an asshole like Bezos would say if asked, then a good-for-nothing tech press guy asks AND you give him a platform on Lemmy.

There is no valuable analysis or any collateral reporting that makes this other than self-inflicted propaganda.
