How is Dorsey’s opinion supposed to matter to me?
Business leaders have nothing in common with the rest of us, so why should we trust them to have our best interests in mind? Athletes, famous musicians, business leaders, celebrities all have one thing in common - money. They have much more of it than the vast majority of people and they generally want more of it.
Jack Dorsey doesn’t want Democrats in power because they might “take his money”, so he’s promoting a fringe candidate to be a spoiler to Biden.
How is Dorsey’s opinion supposed to matter to me?
Because he has the ability to influence the public either with his reputation or his social media platform once it gets going. There’s also a group of people who likely look up to him as someone who’s fulfilled the American dream, starting at the bottom and becoming a billionaire and sadly far too many Americans believe if they were only given the chance that would be them too so they listen to this drivel.
Why do you think billionaires have nothing in common with the rest of us? Just because they think a banana costs, like, twenty dollars?
What a fool
Former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey appeared to endorse anti-vaccine activist Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for the Democratic presidential nomination over the weekend.
Dorsey has poor judgement. This has become increasingly more evident with his endorsement of Musk as CEO of Twitter as well.
Why are so many billionaires such self centred dicks?
I have a non-hot take on this:
Humans are just not evolved for billionaire levels of wealth/resource disparity.
For most of our evolution it was impossible to hoard that much power.
Of course these people begin to act completely nuts. They literally can’t help it.
Disclaimer: This is not a plea for communism or some other obsolete solution.
Honestly when I see shit like this I think of that old anti-drug commercial on tv. “This is your brain… and this is your brain on money.”
