What the absolute f is happening to Mark Zuckerberg?

[Anonymous]

Realizing that the end of life is approaching, he realized he needed to get going if he wanted to ruin his life.

[Anonymous]

It’s not that deep, folks. Trump once threatened to throw Zuckerberg in jail. Now they are budding allies in the oligarchical takeover of the U.S. government. Zuck sees his fortunes rising under Trump in a way that was not possible under past presidents.

It's such a dramatic rebrand and carries such a big risk of aging extremely poorly very fast. I get that Elon is like this - but Elon has always been like this. What is in it for zuck??? Is this some kind of midlife crisis?

Maybe you are so extreme, you perceive everyone who doesn't agree with your political stance as extreme?

the post is not about his stance. it's about his dramatic about face and personal rebrand

Worship billionaires?

You sure you aren't talking about democrats?

The lack of self awareness here is STUNNING.

How can you talk about self awareness when you skip the obvious fact that Trump is an actual billionaire while no Democratic presidential candidate ever was.

a. trump is not a billionaire.
b. Mike Bloomberg,
c. tom steyer.

Here's a little thought exercise: if you won the lottery, what is the lowest jackpot amount you could win where you would quit your job? Ten million? A hundred million? A billion?

If you answered literally any number, congratulations, you're not the type of sociopath that becomes a billionaire. Every normal person has an amount of money that makes them say "ok that's plenty to do what I need to do in my life." Whether that's travelling the world in luxury, funding charity causes, or building the world's biggest ball of twine, it doesn't matter because you have shown there is some amount of money that will satisfy you.

Billionaires do not have a number that will satisfy them. If they did, they would have stopped before they reached the level of Elon Musk or Peter Thiel where it is literally impossible for them to spend it all in their lifetime even if they tried. Because there is no number that will satisfy them, they are compelled to keep growing their wealth by any means necessary. It is a legitimate addiction, and much like how a heroin addict will do absolutely anything to get their next fix, so will a billionaire to get their next billion, and they don't care how many lives they have to ruin to get it.

Zuckerberg didn't change, this is who he always was, a money junkie desperate to obtain more by any means necessary. Previously he believed that putting on a liberal persona was the best path to the biggest fix, so that's the way he acted, now he sees sucking up to Trump to be a more efficient means so that's what he is doing, but make no mistake - there was no shift in morals because he never had any to begin with.

I don't know if I agree with this. It works if you see your job as primarily a revenue generator. It doesn't work if your work satisfies a creative instinct that you need to meet to be happy.

Let's put it another way: How much would you need to pay Yo-Yo Ma to never touch the cello again? How about Evgeni Kissin, what would it take for him to never come around a piano again? How about Leonardo, what would he charge to stop painting?

I think people like Zuck are no longer doing it for the money. You may disagree with their motivation but they have something they want to do with the business, and that's what gives them pleasure.

Wow. You have got to be kidding.

a. Trump is in fact a billionaire. Just google it.
b. Bloomberg is not currently an office holder or candidate or leader of the democratic party
c. Tom Steyer is also not a politician and does not hold an official title and is also not a candidate or leader within the democratic party

How can you be so blind?

that is not correct and part of the Democrat failures.

MAGA just want to have jobs that let them support their families.

Democrats keep pushing overwhelming immigration to replace US workers with cheap foreign temporary labor.

If Democrats would stop the overwhelming immigration and forces on helping US workers they would never lose elections.

Who do you think is hiring the foreign temporary labor?

He must be getting blackmailed to the hilt... I wonder what Elon has on him

[Anonymous]

Democrats overwhelmingly want a living wage for all workers. How is that not supporting jobs that support your family?... Republican governors continually shut down. Increased minimum wage bills all of the time.
