Billionaires existing is bad. Whether they were "losers" as children/teens is irrelevant to the badness.
I think that a super popular person growing up rich and eventually becoming a billionaire could easily be more actively narcissistic or psychopathic. Debatably just as bad.
I wish Musk would just not show himself ever again. That guy has to be the most pathetic person on this entire planet. I almost pity this massive fucking loser.
That would create bitter people that feel like the world owes them something.
Be compassionate with those around you - especially those that are nice, but maybe a tad weird. It'll help them, and they're quite often the most interesting people to spend time with
I don't fucking understand how you can be such an insecure lover freak WHEN YOU ARE THE RICHEST MAN IN HISTORY!
Like holy shit. You won. You fucking won in a way no one else can win. Those asshole bullies who called you a loser? You can hire private detectives to track them down and then drive a giant ass limo with the hottest models on earth with you and roll up to their asses and say 'what ho, douchebags? I heard your mom needs new panties because she is a slut' and then throw a bundle of cash at them and drive away laughing.
But they don't even do shit like that. Instead they are having massive mental breakdowns because people are annoyed at them for ruining their own lives...
I really don't like any of these billionaire arseholes, but this tweet is akin to saying "these people suffered a form of bullying/abuse/neglect growing up and are now incredibly wealthy", but it adds a dollop of normative-popular-person judgement on top.
I mean fine, these aren't good people, but do we really have to endorse and entrench the winners/losers mentality?
My take as a loser in school: being treated like losers get treated in school leaves scars that are very hard to get rid off. It makes you driven beyond any reason. I would argue treating someone like shit because of circumstances beyond their control is not only creating quite capable assholes but also not better than treating someone worse because of the color of his skin. So maybe everybody who piles the upvotes onto this post: take a long look into the mirror and find some love and understanding for the people around you. Takes alot of reflection and therapy to see the damage and it usually does not help healing it completely.
As a former loser in school, I don't believe any billionaires ever had the same experiences as you or me. People like Musk and Trump were raised in wealth, in an entirely different environment, and they have always had people who catered to them because of it. They have never been anywhere near as alone or helpless as the average bullied kid is.
They should've been given better mental health support as kids, as we all should have. However, as adults they have a lot more power to improve themselves than poor people do - I am dependent on work for health insurance, and can't be guaranteed the company will even pay for a given therapy session (because of bullshit loopholes that other rich people designed.) These billionaires have all the resources anyone could ask for and they still choose not to improve themselves.
I distinctly remember a story of elon being bullied. I also think elitist schools have an even worse bullying problem. As much as you might not believe it, billionaires are human. Dehumanizing someone to make it easier to feel good about hurting them is what the right do and is a trap we should not be falling into.
