I feel like the conspiracy theorists are just gobsmacked right now, like pretty much all their theories were true, just not about the people they thought.

Okay, some of the people they thought.

I didn't want to believe that every wealthy person was the worst kind of evil, but they are doing their absolute best to convince me otherwise.

@RickiTarr indeed. Does wealth make people evil? Is it just easier to get that wealthy if you’re evil? Is there a feedback loop there?

@twasink @RickiTarr it is significantly easier to become rich if you are a horrible person yeah

at a minimum hoarding the kind of wealth that someone couldn't possibly use up in multiple lifetimes makes you pretty selfish

@waitworry @twasink @RickiTarr Looks Like it‘s also significantly easier to become a really evil person (as in: acting on one’s dark desires or even developing them out of boredom?) if you are a rich person
