    Listening to this is as useful as listening a random person yap about the conspiracy theories they believe in. There is no new useful information to be gained. Only there’s a difference. When it’s a random person, at the worst case, they talk about them to try to convince you of said theories, for their own pleasure of convincing themselves that they are right. When it’s a billionaire like this one, at the worst case, they try to persuade everyone and their mother that what they are saying is, not just reasonable, but the absolute truth, and their PR team probably came up with it as a way to make people as likely as possible to hold billionaires accountable for the horrible shit they do. Which means that, in that supposed worst case, which would, mind you, be the most effective way for the billionaire to keep doing business as usual without interruptions, what the billionaire is saying is just a diversion tactic.

    TLDR: Please stop focusing so much on what the billionaire says. They probably don’t really believe in what they’re saying. Please focus instead in the billionaire’s actions, because that’s what they probably don’t want you to do.

    Mind if I ask you something? Have you ever felt like you needed to talk to someone/have social interactions? I don’t mean having to do something that requires social interaction, such as buying stuff, going to a doctor, asking for directions, … I mean feeling something like “I NEED CONTACT WITH ANOTHER HUMAN, IT HAS BEEN TOO LOOOONG”.

    I’m asking because I sometimes feel the latter – the “need social interaction” part, that is – and I wanted to know if there were people in here who never felt something like that.
