How come so many billionaires are so incredibly immeasurably stupid? Seriously, this dude sounds like some random moron on the street. Musk does too. I’ve seen interviews with Musk where he rambles his answers aimlessly. I mean fuck you’d at least expect them to be a bit above average. But no. They’re angry online pseudointellectual level.

I don’t understand how people see this kind of thing and think, “this guy is dumb.”

For a decade the world has been seeing constant evidence that when you lie brazenly and repeatedly enough you become untouchable. This guy isn’t an idiot- he just knows (probably rightly) that he has everything to gain and nothing to lose by pretending to be.

There’s a big difference between intelligence and low cunning.

Donald Trump has constantly lied and failed upwards. He is not a smart man.

Okay, so what does that say about everyone who’s failed to outsmart him?

I’m remembering the old duelist’s adage, that the worst opponent to have is an amateur - because you have no idea what kind of idiocy they’ll try
Show threadWizardofFrobozz3d ago
After 30 or so years of witnessing firsthand that the amateur really only has one or two moves, though… at a certain point that adage kind of falls apart.

I dunno, in this case the amateur happens to be able to absorb a whole lotta hits too - they can fail over and over while waiting for you to slip.

They’re not as rich as him. If you have shit tons of money you can be a braindead moron and still fail upwards.
