I find the Icahn hate very curious, and very similar to the outrage towards Donald Sterling.
Both people have done questionable (I'm trying to be charitable) things that have hit the public limelight, and have been ostracized and scapegoated by their peers so that the public has a visible enemy they can attack instead of realizing the problems are endemic to larger systems and groups of people.
Honestly, if you think Sterling/Icahn are even in the bottom 25% of their equally immoral peers you're being duped. Continuing to vilify the symptoms of larger diseases will only allow the disease to spread, and will solve nothing. Maybe we should take a better look at the environments that create such people?
It all rather reminds me of this Scarface scene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DzfX0T4LDD8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DzfX0T4LDD8
