    This was so hard to watch. He comes off just fully crazy to me.

    Is he really delulu enough to think “earth” will not immediately blame him and his terrible leadership for why the company is going under?

    It almost sounds like he’s trying to build a case to sue these advertisers—like he’s somehow owed their business, but that’s just as crazy. I just can’t get a hold on wtf is going through his mind here.

      I think what most people are forgetting is that this dude’s wealth is $250,000,000,000. If you counted one dollar of his money every second it would take you 8,000 years to count it all.

      He could retire tomorrow, sell everything, throw his cash in a term deposit and literally make $60,000 a day in interest or $30M a year.

      He doesn’t have to give a shit about any consequence of anything, ever. He can bankrupt 100 businesses, get sued 1000 times, buy a chain of small islands, and still be filthy rich enough to retire on an armada of super yachts with unlimited coke and super models, while still launching rockets into space for shits and gigs until he’s 100.

      I don’t want to understand what’s going through his mind. I hope you never do, either. I’m afraid that understanding it would mean we’ve had some kind of mental break.
