if you take away their wealth what have most of these celeb billionaires accomplished? zuck created a website that got popular that wasn't even the first of its kind. it was just popular...

and if it disappeared tomorrow i wouldn't give two fucks. humanity survived for thousands of years without facebook and instagram and it hasn't been a benefit to society. it didn't solve a problem that needed to be solved--we already had myspace and photobucket and the local classified ads.

why are we treating rich people like celebrities just for being rich, especially ones who don't impact your life in any positive way? that's the real issue.

i never knew who the CEO or creator of gillette was even though i shave my face every day. that guy deserves more recognition.

It's only obvious to the 99.9% of humanity who are not oligarchs, so obviously the criminal predators will never have to face consequences for their crimes.

Yeah absolutely, and the more proof of what we know that we can gather, the less manoeuvring they can do to get around it. Corruption can't exist blatantly or they wouldn't invest so much in propaganda. It's certainly does exist blatantly, but then it's about a power struggle. Ultimately they need 'us' (collectively not individually) to engage to a degree, to say the benefits outweigh the costs. To keep using Facebook because the algorithms have caused addiction and our friends are on there. If anything overpowers that drive, and we all collectively turn away. They cease to exist. I mean obviously that's why they try so desperately to intricate themselves in politics and weapons, an oroborous.

We need this information, collectively. We need society wide disgust.

Honestly this pic is still too humanizing for him.

Well no shit. To him, or any billionaire, empathy is impossible and even sympathy is a tall order.

He's pretending to care? He's doing a terrible job at that, too

🫂 everyone who gets to those levels of wealth is a horrible person and a seasoned liar.

I couldn't tell what he was trying to lie about, just that he was lying about something.

Lol, I get it now. You couldn't read the psychopath's face. Very relatable.

Literally the only way they can make any of this right when the bubble pops and shit starts hitting the fan is public execution.

Musk, bezos, Altmann, zuckerman, etc.

Nothing they do short of that is going justify all the damage they caused to the world, I don't think we will be able to move past it unless they where executed, or at the very least have to spend 5 counts of life time sentences in solitary confinement with no parole, work release, etc.

Nah, put them through the legal system and see how they last in our prison system, and not one of the white collar cushy ones. Maybe they'll end up spending some of their money on improving our penal system then.

Yeah, you are right and I know it. I more or less don't trust that to happen though.

Even if this is obvious, I’m really glad more people are coming forward with evidence, testimony, and details. It takes a lot of courage to step forward as a whistleblower and I’m happy they did.

I mean it's nice to have someone who actually knew Zuckerberg say the quiet part out-loud, but anyone who surprised to hear this must've been living under a rock for the last decade.

Corporations have never cared about the children. In other countries, the same corps that preach about caring for children have them working as slaves in factories. Don't think for a second that they care.

Wait......were we all not already on the same page about that? Am I supposed to gasp here?

This is the same level of shocking scandal when they revealed that rich people were paying to have their children admitted to universities.

24

you mean the android and his human wife sitting at a dinner tale with infamous epstein, thiel, musk, and other pedophiles care.

We should now ask them if they have any evidence that water is wet

I mean….he did get us his start by rating his classmates on hotness and stealing the idea for Facebook.

Whistleblower says Wolf in sheep costume just pretending to be a sheep.

13

I mean, you often need people with direct knowledge of obvious things to say them in court under oath.

We've known this since 2014, when an actual whistleblower told the public that FB was experimenting on its users without their knowledge or consent, and the result of those experiments is why Meta is currently being sued.

9

Jetzt bin ich aber doch überrascht.

Next they find out that meta also didn't care about all the other users, when they rolled out the addictive mechanisms. That they needed to please the gods of revenue... I mean... shareholders.

Other whistleblower says everyone else is pretending to be shocked.

5

The whistleblower then continued to tell another secret, you might get wet if it rains and you're outside without an umbrella.

He'd clearly sell your children's organs to zoos for meat, then go into your home at night and wreck up the place.
