Gross. I thought this was gonna be about authors, artists, or inventors.
Are you saying Ed Gein wasn’t an artist? And he invented the woman suit!
Ok I had to look up Ed Gein and it all makes sense now. 😂 Good one!
it is never too late to exploit other human beings, you just need Capital and the blessing of the bourgeois State
Look at the president, mid 90’s, barely able to make bowels with mouth noises, but he’s expertly dismantling the country. Not slowly like the Dumas Republican party. He’s been doing this in days! While we go to work our asses off every day, this old fuck goes to work in destroying our economy and our children’s futures!
All to show you, it’s never too late.
In Gein’s case, you don’t even need the capital or blessing!
Step 1: … be born white
Step 2: … be born male
I was only able to achieve step 2. Too bad for me I guess.
I guarantee you don’t need either quality to reach Ed Gein levels of notoriety. All it takes is effort.
And a dedication to folk art.
Where do you live again? … you know … so we can ‘talk’.
Hey, Ed didn’t care if you lived or not. You want to achieve what he achieved, you better get a shovel and head to the nearest cemetery.
You should do inspirational talks on stage.
I am way too busy with my folk art.
But imagine what you could accomplish!
Step 3… Be given shit for being male and white by people much better off than you.
Step 4… Get no reprieve from racism and sexism because someone before your existence looked like you and was these things so it’s okay to happen to you as revenge.
Step 5… Do the one thing white males way better at than anyone else; suicide.
And hope for re-roll
Yeah, people are so mean to Ed Gein, aren’t they?
I’m not going to try and justify the people who think it’s ok to be bigoted towards white males. It’s not ok. I’m also not going to pull the “those people don’t exist” bullshit, because it’s bullshit.
But no one of that particular flavor of asshat is here in this post or comment thread. So get out of your own head and get over yourself. For your own sake.
Complaining about misandrists and/or people racist against white people is not acceptable behavior publicly. At best it makes you look socially incompetent, and at worst it makes you look like someone who wouldn’t mind being lumped in with nazis.
On top of that, the amount of people publicly anti-“every white male ever” is pretty damn low lately. Low enough that you can generally get through life as if they don’t exist.
It’s been over a decade since I’ve seen any news orgs worth mentioning run anything along the lines of “Young white men need to be taught not to rape”.
If you can’t escape it, change the spaces you’re spending time online, and the people you are spending time around in real life. I haven’t heard that sort of shit to any significant amount for a very long time.
We’re hitting levels of delusion that shouldn’t even be possible
Oh get off the cross, we need the wood.
lol … I found a picture of you from 2,000 years ago …
i don’t think any of those four fellows in the OP killed themselves, and in fact, they all lived to ripe old ages.
It’s crazy to me that Ray Kroc was already in the unedited version of this image… Dude Edison’d the fuck outta McDonald’s.
I’d consider it worse than Edison. Edison’s real contribution to technology was the creation of a company R&D lab geared towards new products. He would invest in the development of the product before it became big.
Kroc took over an already functioning business.
I was really disappointed by the film about him with Michael Keaton. Even though they couldn’t completely hide who he really was, it was a hagiography.
I think it did a great job selling that he was a total sleazeball
I guess I felt like it showed he was still doing a great thing despite how he was as a person.
…dude Musk’d the fuck outta McDonald’s?
Ray Kroc started buying up the land the franchises were being built on and became McDonald’s landlord. Then he was able to eventually force McDonald brothers into a deal because he could have shut down the businesses by not renewing their leases on the land.
Ooh, is this demotivational adjacent? That’s old school material!
You forgot to say LFTL but thanks!
That’s exactly how you start a fight with Colorado.
Buzzfeed title: Who shortened the most human lives, the answer may shock you.
Ed Gein only killed two people officially! The least evil of the four!
Seems like past your 50s it’s too late

Like crocodile but not spelled that way.
What’s shit about this post?
I mean the whole „you’re only successful if people talk about you” thing is shit, but is that ot?
I think it’s pretty shitty how few human corpses Ray Kroc skinned on his own. Ed Gein did all the corpse-skinning himself. Rich man Kroc got the butler to skin human corpses when he wanted human skin.
Edit: Look, Kroc fans, I know you’re mad, but the fact is that Ed Gein was a working man who did a working man’s job flaying a corpse. Ray Kroc would never get his own hands dirty digging up a grave and you know it.
And while we’re at it, did you ever see Sam Walton’s “woman suit” sewn together out of the corpses of exhumed women? It’s shit. Just shit. Gein knew how to make himself a “woman suit.”
Kroc and Ford’s numbers put Gein to shame though…
Yes, but with far less creativity and artfulness.
Hail Gein
I’m glad you didn’t try to defend Ford. You know that nazi would have been happy to get his hands dirty skinning various people.
Wait what? Ford was a nazi?
Sort of the other way around. He published the Protocols of the Elders of Zion (a famous antisemitic book) in serialized form in his newspaper and Hitler admired him for capitalist reasons as well. He kept a photo of Henry Ford on his desk.
Oh he did. The original Model T had seats upholstered from the skins of Jewish orphans that Ford would personally strangle every morning.
Yeah. I hadn’t heard that, but it definitely scans with his whole vibe. That dude loved to be antisemitic. One of the best to ever play the game. Up there with the okhrana.
Like, are you saying i should try to become and oligarch?
No, you could just as easily become someone who does arts and crafts with human remains.
Human remains are so hard to come by. I prefer human waste, much more abundant and it really captures the spirit of america.
Hey, Ed waited until they were already dead.
Most of the time.
