i think it’s an apt term. social media influencers don’t necessarily have a skill or talent to identify what they do (e.g. athlete, artist, etc.) while still being a peg lower than “celebrity”.

is there one of these for non-believers in climate change? i wonder if there’s an overlap of anti-scientific demographic.

this kind of crossover has happened before

Gates also said that Kanye once said some weird bullshit to him in the third-person. “’Kanye hears that you don’t like what Kanye is doing,’” Gates recalled the rapper saying. “And I thought, ‘Wow. But you’re Kanye.’”

Make Polio Great Again

but Mo’Nique doesn’t have 21 Grammys. or invent the Yeezys. and i did some research, and can confirm that she did not make Jesus Walks.

this is literally a scene in Blade Runner 2049

but you can put your sex robot in your car and use the carpool lane.

plus all of the electric car charging infrastructure. perhaps Tesla’s long-term strategy isn’t to be Ford, but rather Exxon.

SpaceX totally is slow at meeting their development deadlines. Musk should make them work harder.

you can’t compare Musk to Ford. it was a different era back then. wealth distribution was different, competition was different - it was a totally different game. these days it’s much more physical now, and you have 7 footers who can shoot 3’s. so yeah, what were we talking about again?

you know who’s above Musk?

reverse-counter-counterpoint: suck billionaires all

hold up, i’m gonna step in here and defend J.A.Shook. he needs it. i mean, i’m sure he’s perfectly capable of responding to your comment without my help, but i, unlike you, find this as a perfectly good use of my time. so fuck you. you big mean Elon Musk.

are there any non-asshole billionaires? or is being an asshole one of the traits you need to get to that level? i don’t think i could be an asshole, so maybe i need to re calibrate my goals.

stereotyping is a part of being racist, but is not alone. again racism require the belief in superiority/inferiority. it’s a common mistake, but a incorrect nonetheless. also, you being a race doesn’t mean anything. you can be racists against your own race.

first of all, “all asians know kung fu” is a stereotype, but not necessarily racism. there needs to be the belief that one race is superior/inferior to another for it to be racism.

money is an interesting angle. but do you think it’s a generational thing? a lot of the younger rappers these days don’t seem to have a problem.
