Zucc gives an impression of an android-reptilian hybrid, but he handles PR a lot better. And this is because he doesn’t spout every thought that runs in his head on social media without filter.
I don’t like a billionaire like the rest of us poor people. But I’ve met quite a few working in a tech and being in leadership. I’m ADHD/spectrum, Zuck reminds me of me. I feel like a reptile when I’m forced to talk about shot I don’t want to, but talk about what I want like “smoking meats” I’ll talk your fucking ear off.
Trump isn’t a reptile nor is Clinton just rich assholes. I’ve also met non assholes that are rich. Zuck and Bezos were the non assholes.
Jokes aside, Zucc’s non-verbal side reminds me of people on the autistic spectrum. This also gives people the creepy vibe, even though it isn’t intentional. My favorite YouTube channel Charisma on Command made a good video about the subject.
I am autistic. I want to make friends with other people and not alienate them. So I watched that video and there’s a part I’m having trouble with.
The part about his smile going away pretty fast, which causes people to subconsciously assume it’s faked, has a comparison video to someone else. That person doesn’t stop smiling at all! So how am I supposed to figure out how long I need to drag out the transition between going from happy to neutral in order to not seem like I’m faking stuff?
it’s not an assumption at this point. They are just a pair of losers who got lucky. They are the best argument imaginable for restoration of a 90% tax rate and inheritance taxes.
Not American but the US had an extremely high tax rate on the rich for most of its prosperous years. It was only recent removed and you now have massive wealth inequality
Not to mention fantastic spending on college/university (GI Bill) to both slow the impact of returning military on the job market and to create a highly educated work force. Also, incredible help for people to become homeowners, creating generational wealth (GI Bill again), unless you were black.
People act like high taxes on the wealthy would be a problem, when in reality what happened is the wealthy poured more of the excess wealth into their businesses, which benefitted everyone. It’s so annoying that we freaking know what works and what doesn’t (trickle-down), yet still argue about their efficacy.
I love how the “conservative” idea is to return to 1950s socially, but sure not economically! It’s also pretty clear that this idea that somehow having a 1% is driving the nation. Case in point this spat! Does Musk and Zuck fighting or competing in social media do much of anything for the country as a whole? At most, it’s similar to what DC and Marvel competing in entertainment IMHO. I guess Twitter vs Facebook does something regarding society, but making it non-stagnant? I guess a lot of people were introduced to the term ‘cuck’.
Every time the “reptile” line gets trotted out, I can’t help but feel it’s insulting neurodivergent people that don’t exactly share neurotypical body language or traits or mannerisms, but it gets a pass because it’s Zuckerberg, a person people really don’t like.
I also really don’t like ad hominem stuff. By all means, hate Zuckerberg for the actual stuff he’s done wrong. But his looks and mannerisms aren’t why he’s a bad person and I feel bad for innocent people who share a physical resemblance or some mannerisms and constantly see his get dunked on. “Am I also unacceptable? Are they just bringing up anything they can to be hurtful, or does this have an actual basis in reality and they legit have a problem with his looks and mannerisms? What does that say about how people think about me, about how I’ll be treated? Am I commonly perceived as a robot who’s faking their way through humanity too?”

Lol techies were never met to be in the spotlight… here I am doing talking engagements and being awkward as fuck. Thanks for the share!

Yet both are mega rich, can we assume theres no correlation between the decorum of their posts and their success?

Do you want a stagnant society?
Right, because the US immediately post-WW2 was an incredibly stagnant society with no visible benefits to the middle class.
What the fuck are you on about
