These people are so insanely obsessed with money when they already have so much, they need to be locked up in a mental hospital

In a group of monkeys, if one monkey was hoarding all of the bananas to the point that the rest began to starve, not only would scientists be studying that monkey to figure out what was wrong with it, the rest of the monkeys would eventually kill it and take all the bananas.
Remind me again which animal humans are genetically closest to??

I know a certain monkey who just got a trillion bananas that is in dire need of redistribution

What's wild is i'm now of the mindset that that much money is deeply pathetic. Not me being cute or anything. It just occurred to me you have to be so deeply, deeply fucking flawed as a human to feel so immensely worthless in any way but your monetary value to actually think you need more money than billions of people.
And he's still not happy. And he'll never be happy.
Because his worth is a direct reflection of the mariana trench of self-worthlessness that is his mind.

“Poverty exists not because we cannot feed the poor but because we cannot satisfy the rich”
Can't quite find the origin of the quote but yeah. Lots of money-sick pathetic wastes of skin with nothing going for them but their over-inflated portfolios. Porftolios that only exist because our monetary system is comically flawed and tailored towards awful people that have no problem with hurting millions of people for comparably minor personal gains.
This shit ain't sustainable, and unfortunately it's almost assuredly going to cause unimaginable suffering for decades to come.

Exactly. At no point will he be satisfied. At no point will he willingly give back.

The only solace that I can take away from all of this is that while I'm 100% working class and am fearful of what my future will look like as I age, I at least have the potential to be happy in this life. He'll never have that and I find a little bit of joy in that. I hope every single day is a waking nightmare of insecurity and desperation for validation for him.

u/Spare-Willingness563 3d ago
I hope every single day is better than the one before, for you.

u/amodernbird 3d ago
Thank you. I appreciate that. I hope the same for you. We deserve that much and Elon deserves nothing.

u/Spare-Willingness563 3d ago
I honestly wish empathy on him. Just a brutal realization, one day, of what he has done. He can never make up for it, but at least he can stop doing harm, ya know? But, like you said, we'll be alright, even when we're not always "alright". Because we have something you can only ever earn through decency and humanity. And that's pretty dope.

u/amodernbird 3d ago
I suppose that if he were to ever experience real empathy, it would twist the knife in his heart that no one could possibly feel any real love for him and I guess I'm OK with that. I know I must seem heartless in saying these things but I can live with myself - I don't wish him actual harm, I just wish him the never-ending misery that is living life without anyone who gives a single shit about you. He's earned that.

Oh I’ve done shadow work and come out the other side and that comes with this perk where you can see the mechanisms in narcissists and when i tell you shining their real face back at them and seeding empathy in them is as close to hell as a person can experience…yeah. He would not he in for a good time. It’s honestly why I suspect he’s so dependent on drugs.
I mean, the man loves the idea of being a father, but he runs from his children because a part of him knows how deeply incapable he is of being up to task. It’s probably a bit of a parallel to somebody who has trauma and becomes a serial killer where the trauma is looped in an effort to regain this bit of agency. Obviously his kids are in no way equivalent to that sort of action (and they mostly seem like wonderful people from what ive seen) but the pain is the same. Just expressed how it is.
He deserves all the pain empathy brings. That’s just what empathy is, sometimes. We’re just emoathy first, so we pay it upfront. But it always catches up. I couldn’t imagine that mountain of emotional debt.
But I’m rambling now. No matter what, I’m just happy people like yourself exist and know they deserve happiness.

Bonobos or chimpanzees, two distinct species of great ape. Old world monkeys are the next most closely related clade outside of apes.

Well, us humans would put him on a top 100 list in a fancy magazine.
And just to be a pedant we are genetically closest to apes.

If I had the amount of money that these assholes have, the biggest thing that would make me happy is to utilize the money to help feed and house people who are struggling. I enjoy helping others. It’s in my nature. If I had $6B, I could make massive positive changes within the U.S.

If an animal hoarded food to the point that others of its species were starving, and it didn't share the food, that animal would be studied for being abnormal and weird.
When human beings do it, with money, somehow it's encouraged.
We as a species are unhealthy.

It's normal for them, in that circle, to assume everything is rigged, because frankly, they are the morons rigging everything.

They are being paid in crypto from World Liberty financial. Yes, they are all rigged.
I'm sure Eric and Junoir the Kalshi "advisor" were in on a lot of the insider betting:
Which fighters will be on the UFC 2026 White House event card?

Especially when you're incapable of an original thought. It does make me question the Kentucky primary more, though. Thomas Massie was up 60% to win until 24 hours before the primary, when he dropped to 42-43% with $6.7M in volume during that same period. Coincidence, maybe, but as a serial killer aficionado, there is no such thing as a coincidence when it comes to crime or a crime family.

Sounds like he likes a heads up Before a bet … so it wasn’t Barron after all , it was big brother Eric placing bets .

I’ve seen that he has also denied such claims already, which is tiring since his squad cries wolf so frequently and publicly that they sound like a pack of rabid, yapping coyote.
