    4D chess isn’t real. Sometimes, rich and powerful people do dumb things. Sometimes they’re not very smart and have a visible personality disorder. Searching for an underlying clever motive is an exercise in your intelligence - not theirs.

            … and what it is, is completely different from secretly pursuing a complex goal that only looks like an idiot immune to good ideas.

              In light of recent accusations: an idiot off his tits on meth, and immune to good ideas.
