SHOCKING
Apparently it's just circular handjobs all the way down with the wealthy.
If we’re lucky, they’ll all rip each other‘s dicks off
Showing my age here, but I feel it's likely to be a corporate analogue to the movie Highlander - they gain power by chopping each other's heads off (I'll leave which one to the imagination), progressively shrinking the number of immortals with the tagline of "there can be only one" being the goal.
Well, what’s the fun in that?
Winning. It's all these assholes care about.
Still, I’d rather like it if they all ripped each other‘s dicks off
Amazon, with a giant cigar in its mouth: “It’s just business.”
"Nothing personal, kiddo."
"It was for purely financial reasons"
Show me ANY even semi-large company where that's not the case.
Being standard practice doesn't make it okay.
I think his name Altman couldn't be more perfect.
Alternate Man, the artificial autistic version of humanity, merging with machines.
Is that really his birthname? It seems fate is not without humor.
This was always a catch and kill project.
Probably just a coincidence.
