In a world with superpowers would it be possible to have a compelling villain whose only ability is wealth? Like, no magnificent bastard brilliance, just money. It feels like the only way to make it a threat to a superhero would be to have henchmen infinitely more interesting than the villain.

What's interesting is that this was in the first draft of Moby Dick as Ishmael's motivation for going to sea.

At the very least they should get on the floor and call Musk names since one of their members was threatened for doing so.

What, you think they're just some sort of adding machines? Able to keep track of numbers and such? Go ask Barron, he does the cyber.

So many levels of stupid. Even if you went through the Herculean effort of remaining ignorant of Trumps various failings in business it’s still ignores that there are businesses dedicated to ripping companies apart, selling off bits, and leaving the husk to die.

Challenge Schumer for leadership. He’s too old and weak for this moment in history.

MAGAts wouldn’t complain about being punched in the face so long as a few blows landed on whomever they currently call a liberal.

I think he knows what he’s saying. Matched with Trump’s comments about saving the country, they’re hoping someone kills her.

“First known deportation of its kind under the Trump administration”
Has this been done in other administrations? The phrase seems to imply that but no details are given in the article.

I once needed to know your opinion on if I should wear one or two sets of long johns, but you were bust posting about a burrito. Don’t think that I’ve forgotten about that betrayal.

Frankly, there aren’t enough stories in our literary tradition which teach the important lesson that wealthy people need to be traumatized into being decent humans.

Woah - Musk is not a nerd. He’s a try-hard hanger-on regurgitating things nerd culture found funny or cool on the past. He’s the kid who would only have been welcome to play D&D because his parents had a cool hang out spot. He’s a loser. An incredibly wealthy and powerful loser, but still a loser.

Did Musk do this? Did…did an immigrant take our job?

I blame authors. Reading Gibson et al in my childhood prepared me for ultra rich tech conglomerates destroying society; but the villains were intimidating or aristocratic. I was never prepared for them to be such pathetic losers.

All my time reading dystopian cyberpunk in my youth did not prepare me for the ultra rich megacorp villains to be such losers.

The soft selling of Trump, the pandering and sanitizing, is why I cancelled my Times subscription last year. It is clear that I made a good choice.
