    If you think of it as a particularly dangerous symptom of mental illness it makes a lot more sense.

      Exactly they are hoarders. It just money they hoard. I remember stories of Sam Walton. Had billions and yet wore old clothes and drove old truck. He still would stop pick up pennies on the street and check payphone for change. It’s fucking disorder. Warren Buffet lives in old house. They get upset these kind of men who will throw a fit if they can’t save a penny on something. It’s no longer about the money just hoard to hoard. And they are so far above us that they can’t even convince how we struggle.

      The reason they often punch down on trans people is to run cover for their own mental illness. If they can convince chuds that someone’s outward appearance is a major symptom of something wrong, they’ll never look deeper. They’ll never see Trump’s narcissism, they’ll never see Elon or Bezos or Zuck’s soulless sociopathy, because they see them wearing suits and being in charge.

      The fucking muppets always take the easy bait

      One of the small blessings of social media has been more billionaires putting their unfiltered thoughts out there for everyone to see. It’s become very obvious that they have no special skills or intelligence. If anything it’s just a lack of imagination that allows them to indulge their fixation on collecting shiny things.
