    Why’s everybody seething with rage? This is hilarious. It’s easy to get bent out of shape when the flaws of powerful people have a disproportionate effect on others, but those flaws are, in themselves, an indication that the humanity has not yet been completely purged from industrialized society.

    Okay, you hate the rich. I understand, but we’ve been dealing with them since we noticed that grain grows better on certain land, and we’ll be stuck dealing with them until individuals can freely convert matter and energy. Okay, these guys are egomaniacal man babies. They’re taking it out on each other! Honestly, would you rather they resolved their differences and cut a deal to (further) integrate Meta and Twitter? Let them fight.
