It really feels like the race would be over if it weren’t for all the tech billionaires who are worried that they’ll be inconvenienced on their quest to become vengeful gods

They're clearly trying to strike a bargain where Democrats look the other way on all the techbro crypto money laundering and consumer cons and in exchange they won't use their money to topple the govt but nobody trusts them to not topple the govt anyway so Dems aren't biting.

Insightful

A dearth of billions $$$ in Govt subsidies. Corporate Welfare. But don't talk about the single mom with food stamps. 😒

I can't bear the sadness in my children's eyes when they ask about food and drinking water and I can't apply their requests. This is one view from the daily damned life we live in Gaza hell. Please help us to provide children food and to escape from the death.yougofund.me/03d12215

You know, maybe some kids don't need to be encouraged to think they are the smartest and most special.

I think you're not giving A.G. Sulzberger enough credit.

I believe you mean #brunchlords@karlbode.bsky.social likes to describe them

Techbros watched The Avengers over and over hoping that their hero Thanos prevails at the end just one time

don't forget the theocrat billionaires (much overlap but not entirely). and, mostly, how much inroad they've made into the courts and the infrastructure that keeps us functioning.
