    When I was ten, just after my mom died, I listened to the pretty boy narcissistic hockey douche who said radiologists make ton of money and I changed my lifelong desire from being an archeologist to radiologist because of that.

    Kids are impressionable. Kid wants to make narcissistic dad proud, kid will try to make as much money as possible. Just one example for how long-term executive decision making is done by youths, and trust me, if someone is thinking of the youths, it’s me.

            It’s a decentralized autonomous organization, the police state. He’s doing that, but he’s not even that competent. He can be the middle man explaining what the modern day Nikola Tesla is working on to, let’s say, Donald Trump, or whomever is really pulling the strings, cuz it’s certainly neither of them.

        No, I think he’s some autistic sperg boy born to rich af parents who networked right and the actual intelligence behind engineering society decided it would be good for him to be used in the engineering of culture. Our culture is engineered, and this mediocre fuck is skilled enough to play a role, but as far as doing the work to be a meaningful player, he’s dogshit.
