Elon Musk is 54 years-old and did this.

I was just thinking about him today and how he's the quintessential manchild, a 14 year old boy in a man's body with literally all the money in the world. Great system, wonderful to promote these types to the highest offices in the land!

I forget who said it but you really stop maturing as soon as you stop having to worry about your money.

being insulated from real consequences has such weird effects on the psyche

That healthcare CEO getting got certainly improved people's healthcare coverage (at least for a short while)

I always thought that concept that villains in fiction think they're invincible and untouchable was just for dramatic effect, never realized real humans can reach a point where they can't imagine getting punched in the mouth

I recall reading something here about a study that found that legal repercussions against the rich leads to greater results in adherence to the law than it does for poorer folk; I feel it's pretty obvious it's because they're reminded they're not as untouchable as they imagine they are

If he was a democrat, he’d be the poster child for “how do you do, fellow kids?”

But no, his politics are hip and trendy so he gets a free pass to be a skibidi sigma rizzler alongside the digital cool kids.

Fuck this pathetic excuse for a “culture”.
