He looks like such a nerd in those stupid glasses.
And not even in a good way.
Can we PLEASE make these people go away.
His secret bunker is on Maui.
Don’t tell everyone.
The locals won’t help you find it of you ask them.
They definitely don’t hate him as much as all of us, or more.
And Larry Ellison doesn’t conspicuously have a whole island in Hawaii that’s thus easy to find and widely known. Except his locals seemed a little more wary to speak ill of him.
They want to make every one of us penniless, and control ALL the money. If they can’t get it from us from taxes, fines, and over-priced consumer goods, they’ll train us to just throw it away by gambling.
And they’ll just scoop it all up. Nothing left for children to inherit, nothing saved for retirement, nothing saved to start a business, but a second home, send kids to college, etc.
But it’s worse than that. You got out of college with massive student loans that will take a lifetime to pay off. Now you have a massive gambling debt that just keeps growing, because your addicted as sure as if it were heroin. Now you’re gambling, not to “make it interesting,” but because you’re trying to win the money to get yourself out of your hole. You don’t worry about losing any more, because your already so deep it doesn’t matter. What matters is that you could win at any time, and start digging your way out.
Or maybe you avoided the student loan trap somehow, but now they convince you that gambling in fun, get you into debt, and trap you that way.
Yeah, those goggles look perfectly normal. Nobody will think you look like a super-creep weirdo at all.
I saw some of them in a store just today and holy shit they look dumb as hell. I used to have bose frames and honestly i loved them so much, they were great but flimsy unfortunately. They lookes kinda odd because the handle things were pretty wide but i didn’t really care. Now a days i wouldn’t probably wear tgem because they reaemble these dumb as fuck creep glasses
So we know that he is actively harming young people on Instagram. We know that he was showing ads for CASM content in India and is profitering from that. He know wants to hook young people on gambling. Maybe he should get a restraining order preventing him from interacting with children at all.
We know Facebook is knowingly ignoring human trafficking on Facebook…
I wonder how effectively those glasses would protect his face from a baseball bat swung at full force. Probably not very well, but I’d pay good money to see it tested on him all the same.
I actually heard they are completely bullet-proof. Maybe musk could swing by with a metal ball and test that for us
android bodies likely wont feel any pain. his chassis has been reinforced through BJJ training.
Another sign that billionaires and Zuckerberg especially, have completely become out of touch with the rest of humanity.
We are merely consumers to them.
Always were. They simply have to come up with more ways to squeeze the rest out of their userbase to justify investments.
kinda unusual since hes a out of touch rich millennial.
Mark Zuckerberg shizzle sounds eaga to get young peeps hooked on online gamblin
preying on the degenerate, by making degenerate app.
Meta is desperate to corner the market on something, anything.
Tax that dweed fuck so much he’s afraid to show his face in public.
Why or how would a tax do that?
Because society added a “going in public” tax for assholes like him? We could do it
i follow, but there’s a bedrock legal principle that the government can’t levy a tax on one person. (basically they don’t want the government picking on individuals) can’t remember what it’s called, but we’d need to make it broad enough it’s not focused specifically on him. which would lower the effectiveness of the Billionaires In Public Gotta Pay Me Money Because Fuck Them tax
He’s eager for anything to help him gain more wealth, because he doesn’t have enough yet and enough is never enough.
AI slop is costing him more money than his android brain likes to admit.
That’s the thing I think I’ll die never understanding. I really don’t see the point of being on your death bed with plenty of leftovers.
Some people have a really backwards understanding on the core philosophy of “being successful in life”. Like, he seems to lack the ability to grasp the literal meaning of that concept and so will always be doomed to fail at achieving anything with it. It just makes sense to understand he has a psychological deficit. I’d be empathetic if he weren’t such a catastrophic burden to everyone.
Considering he is not the only billionaire behaving like this, in fact I couldn’t think of a single billionaire who doesn’t act like this, then the behaviour seems to be some sort of disease transmitted by extreme wealth.
Probably just a dick measuring contest among themselves. It’s pathetic.
Exactly. How embarrassing to have your 140 ft yacht passed by your rivals 165ft yacht that neither of you could drive, repair, navigate, service, fuel, register, or even crew yourself.
I feel like it is in human nature. Its in most of us. But basically all of us encounter this only with video games. Like incremental games were the numbers most go up and it is deeply satisfying even though a lot of them have a deeply disturbing meta-subplot going on while you progress through absurd numbers. Had the same feeling with the ye old Sim City titles. At the start you might roleplay as a “good” virtual mayor but at some point you probably reach the point where you are going to plane entire neighborhoods to build high-rises with fake water-access to min-max your economy on the limited space you are given. The games are already abstract to begin with but with time the abstraction layer gets to the point where you try to game the given rules of the designer.
I’m no expert. But i feel like Zuckerberg managed to reach that point in real life. Basically unchecked by the rules of society he does whatever the fuck he wants to play a perverted meta-progression of life.
Eager or desperate? They rebranded their entire company around a clusterfuck vr second life. Are they actually producing enough to stay relevant?
Facebook has been trending downhill for a long time. Threads I barely hear about. I don’t hear as much about Oculus as I used to.
Facebook and shit don’t matter much, but whatsapp is the primary form of communication for a good chunk of the world.
Fun fact: in some places, whatsapp and Facebook (and a few other sites) isn’t even considered to be “internet”. Like, if you don’t pay an ISP you still get access to those. Then paying for “internet” gives you access to everything else.
Advertising is still the vast majority of their revenue, and as far as I can tell with a few quick Google searches a significant portion of that still comes from Facebook.
I’d be keenly interested in seeing actual numbers if you can locate them, because they don’t appear easy to come by, but I seriously a doubt your assertion that their core product’s add revenue doesn’t matter to their bottom line.
All these stories about VR, then metverse/crypto, then ai, and now gambling. It seems like Zuckerberg is trying to recreate the early success he had in an emerging field but, at a fundamental level, does not understand that facebook was successful largely due to luck and timing.
Sometimes I think America cannot be a good place to live until the myth of the “tech genius” is thoroughly broken.
does not understand that facebook was successful largely due to luck and timing.
That’s every successful human. It’s a known bias. The classic study was letting people play a rigged game of Monopoly. One random player gets double money among other advantages and wins of course. Afterwards the winner will always tell that it’s because of their strategy or something like that, never they just got luckily.
Tech genius is only the most recent wave in this fad. We love our hero worship, which results in cycles of this type of thing.
The most recent example is probably the Robber Baron era of the guided age. Some notables of the time include Andrew Carnegie, John Rockefeller, J. P. Morgan, Leland Stanford, etc. Edison and Bell didn’t reach that level of wealth, but they probably would have if they were alive today.
Don’t worry, a lot of that money is still around wrapped up in family trusts. Sure, they’ve given a decent chunk away to white wash their names but these weren’t good people.
Have you seen any of the games that are available on Android and iOS devices for kids to play? They have been priming children for gambling for many many years. The sounds and visuals they use in the way they introduce prizes and features as rewards for playing mini games and various “mystery box” items they can get. They are virtually identical to any and all gambling apps as well as casino slot machines.
