    Who gives a shit, this guy is done forever. Go cry on bazillionaire island or whatever people who don’t have to work ever again do.

    Why is it that once you get more money than sense your brain breaks? Shit look at elon, he only started doing nazi stuff too after he was the richest man on earth and cash meant nothing anymore. It’s all ego now, the only currency you can have after material objects aren’t a problem. I think these guys want to have a following no matter who follows them (hint it’s nazis I guess) and enter the religious stage to get there.

    Life isn’t meant to be “won” like capitalism. Nobody is supposed to achieve the status of getting what you dream of every time. I don’t think Kanye or anyone else like him can see the forest through the trees at this point.

      Because rich folks don’t want to attribute their fortune to being born rich, to being lucky by being in the right place at the right time, or shady dealings. It’ll always convince themselves it’s because they’re so hard working, such a genius, such great instincts for business… It doesn’t help that they’ll attract a bunch of yesmen and society at large respects money so much. From there on, they’ll Dunning–Kruger in spectaculair fashion over anything that strikes their fancy.

      The real smart ones know this can happen and make sure to guard themselves against this. They other ones fire anybody with a different opinion until their luck runs out.

      I dont think its even the money with these guys. They want worship and adulation, and MAGA is primed to do it. All the worst megalomaniacs are drawn to them like moths to a flame.
