These people are not well in the slightest. They are mentally ill, and capitalism continues to empower their sociopathic megalomania.

Dont worry, Trump will transition out of Capitalism and Altman/Thiel/Lucky will take their place in the Vanguard party.

Seriously, name a billionaire who seems like he doesn’t have a potentially undiagnosed mental illness. It’s hard to think of one.

All of them - there might be a reason to want to get rich as fuck so that you can live comfortable and buy everything you want. I totally can understand that a superyacht in the Mediterranean can be awesome or that your private jet is more comfy than flying in a normal plane. But there is a limit: Just imagine being Elon Musk, being so rich that you could use a small part of your money to eradicate some illnesses or lift millions of people out of poverty and then spending your time shitposting on Twitter

To be fair, if I had all that money, I'd probably just pay someone to figure out how to make it do the most good, and continue spending at least some of my time shitposting. It's okay to have hobbies, but it's bad to hoard the money or invest it in evil.

The hospital where we had ours literally wouldn't let us leave until we had demonstrated that we knew how to care for the baby. The midwives there taught us how to do everything.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang:

We’re basically holding the planet together

Good ol' Muskrat:

Optimus will ultimately be better than the best human surgeon with a level of precision that is impossible — that is beyond human… People always talked about eliminating poverty, but actually Optimus will actually eliminate poverty.

Plus some "AI is perfect" bullshit from a few others who should know better. But they have to keep the bubble intact.

He is married to a dude. It's either dude or AI at this point.
