- Altman on bloomberg
The shitposting upgraded to level 3
- ahartmetz 2y ago>i feel for the guy Altman, the sensitive, caring person, using his own caring personality to mount a mean put-down. Give me a fucking break. At least Musk isn't a sneaky weasel kind of asshole.
- atoav 2y agoI have to admit that my initial gut reaction to Musk is also one of pity. And I don't mean that as a cynical rethorical device, if I had his (blatantly obvious) insecurities I would feel bad. Would only be nice if his insecurity were dealt with in a way that didn't affect the rest of the world.
- alex_suzuki 2y agoTrue. He‘s more of an in your face one.
- seydor 2y agoand this is why he s still popular despite his antics
- scarfaceneo 2y agoAh yeah, he’s very popular… with the “pick me” crowd
- antupis 2y agoMusk isn't a sneaky weasel kind of asshole. Still, he is doing exactly sneaky weasel kind of shit here.
- ahartmetz 2y agoI see it more as calling Altman's bullshit, but yeah, that's not the only angle.
- latexr 2y agoWhy would you defend either of them? Billionaire tech bros have enough shills already. It was the unwarranted adulation of these assholes that got us in this shitty situation in the first place, where they think they can do anything and stomp on whoever they want. Don’t fight for them. They would never lift a finger to defend you and would gladly sell your mother for a lollipop.

I think I agree with Altman. Musk's whole demeanor is "unfunny nerd looking for approval getting embarrassed when the joke he's repeated for the third time doesn't land".
- Y_Y 2y ago> oligirlies What does this mean? Oligarch girls?
- dqv 2y agoYep, it's just a fun way to refer to oligarchs :) https://www.refinery29.com/en-gb/girlies-trend-online https://www.refinery29.com/en-gb/girlies-trend-online
- aceazzameen 2y agoThere's always broligarchs too.
- soulofmischief 2y agoCasual sexism, insinuating that men don't behave this way, but women.
- 28304283409234 2y agoAnd casual ageism, insinuating that children behave this way. Yet most kids I know are far more reasonable, willing to play together, willing to concede mistakes, etc..etc...
- sincerecook 2y agoYes, traditionally women would engage in passive aggressive slights and backhanded compliments more than men would, who would more likely engage in a physical fight. That is a pattern based on historical reality and observed and acknowledged the world over. Your attempt to make it a pathology to recognize and affirm the observation is itself a pathology, a rabid ideological one.
- LoKSET 2y agoHaha, Musk is probably fuming as we type.
- janejeon 2y agoI think of it more from the perspective that, there are likely people with far less material wealth than him who have achieved much greater heights happiness and lead a more fulfilling life. All that wealth, power, and influence, and for what - if you can't even be happy about it?
