Bill Gates calls Elon Musk’s embrace of far-right politicians abroad ‘insane shit’

From the sounds of it he just sucks at all games. The one game we know he plays himself is a little puzzle game that's on the level of tic tac toe. It's just a dopamine generator.

because maybe those american values are fundementally poisoned?

People who have fully bought into the hard work+talent=success line cannot stand to have that belief shaken by realizing that someone dinner than them lucked/exploited their way to more success than they did.

A person doesn't become not smart no matter how much he flirts with neo nazism. They might be an immoral piece of shit but pretending he isn't also smart can be extremely dangerous, lest people think we can now just let him wreck his brand and become irrelevant.

I for one wouldn't rule out that, when Musk talks about working 12-hour days, what he really does is to let others work, while he sits on his ass tweeting and playing video games like the pathetic fraud that he is.

Reminds me of comments made when Colin Powell resigned (ie “…bunch of fucking Crazies!”) [referring to the republican administration atvthe time].

Gates does chair one of the major health organizations on earth providing medical care. Meeting with the guy who publicly wants to stop vaccines is going to be a stop he'd have to make.

Every single billionaire is a policy failure. By hoarding that much wealth, they are literally bad people. But that doesn't mean they can't do good things, or even give away what they don't need, like the ex-billionaire Charles Feeney who redeemed himself and donated most of his billions, anonymously.

It's a compliment sandwich. You have to include the two pieces of compliment bread even if it's bullshit or else you'll be accused of not offering constructive criticism.
