"Zuck" was a disaster in 2007. Mitch Kapor gave a great speech (one of the best, actually) on why to be a meritocracy, not a "mirrortocracy", in which there's low diversity of thought, age, and gender among influential people.

I think he was too busy building a company to focus on cultivating an image that doesn't make people dislike him (which is very hard to do for a 22-year-old billionaire introvert). I find him pretty unimpressive but I don't see him as worthy of hatred. I wish him the best, although I get annoyed by the fellation of him by Lacy et al.
