“Son, never trust a man who doesn’t drink because he’s probably a self-righteous sort, a man who thinks he knows right from wrong all the time. Some of them are good men, but in the name of goodness, they cause most of the suffering in the world. They’re the judges, the meddlers. And, son, never trust a man who drinks but refuses to get drunk. They’re usually afraid of something deep down inside, either that they’re a coward or a fool or mean and violent. You can’t trust a man who’s afraid of himself. But sometimes, son, you can trust a man who occasionally kneels before a toilet. The chances are that he is learning something about humility and his natural human foolishness, about how to survive himself. It’s damned hard for a man to take himself too seriously when he’s heaving his guts into a dirty toilet bowl.“ - James Crumley
Yeah but my favorite billionaire has a tax haven charity therefore he deserves to hoard more money than everyone I have ever known and their families going up 10 generations have ever seem in their lives.
I mean the term oligarch has a clear definition that differs from billionaire, but to be honest pretty sure many billionaires meet the criteria…
Quickly from wikipedia
A business oligarch is generally a business magnate who controls sufficient resources to influence national politics.[1][2] A business leader can be considered an oligarch if the following conditions are satisfied:
uses monopolistic tactics to dominate an industry;
possesses sufficient political power to promote their own interests;
controls multiple businesses, which intensively coordinate their activities.
Edit: also this smells a bit like tankie propaganda pointed towards liberals and conservatives
Gates, Besos, Zuck and the foss hater msft boss whose name I can’t remember for sure. I honestly have no idea if Elon meets the 1st requirement - though simply being the richest man on planet highly hints towards it
Depends how drunk and how violently I’m vomiting, really. At some point I just need all the support I can get… You’re not gonna die from touching some old pee.
When I had E. Coli last year? Yes. And when I got too weak to do that I slumped over the bowl almost kissing the porcelain, absolutely disgusting but it was that or…
When I got to weak for that I flipped onto the floor and spiritually connected with mankind from years past cuz holy shit do I understand how diarrhea killed people now
I think the show does a good job at showing how easy it is for Dale and Bill to swap too. Just recently watched the episode where they basically end up in a ditch because they didn’t really know how to use a digger - it’s hard to tell who is dragging down who.
