Out-of-touch elderly boomer confirms they are exactly that.
The Internet Historian video on the first Fyre Festival is worth a watch.

Religious conservatives in a Utah school district voted to ban books containing some violent and sexual content, which lead to the bible being banned, which lead to the ban being reversed.
Spotlighting the double-standards and hypocrisy can be an effective countermeasure. I doubt it changed anyone’s minds who voted for the ban, but what matters is that they were forced to reverse the ban.
Wake me when he faces actual consequences. Everything until then is just noise.
I would love to see a series of actors bringing their own interpretations to this scene. Similar to how comedians develop their own versions of the "Aristocrats" joke.
The narcissist’s prayer
That didn't happen. And if it did, it wasn't that bad. And if it was, that's not a big deal. And if it is, that's not my fault. And if it was, I didn't mean it. And if I did, you deserved it.
Robots will take our jobs, but we’ll still have to pay rent.
The easiest way to upset a racist is to call them racist.
They won’t admit it because they know it’s a bad look, but they can’t deny it because they’re too proud. It would be funny if it weren’t so pathetic.
He's going to try to sue Apple over this, and he thinks he will win.
At this point I'm convinced he's intentionally trying to destroy the company out of spite because the SEC called his bluff on the acquisition.
This isn't the behavior of a rational adult. This is what I'd expect from a spoiled child.
It has bluetooth so it can pair with your phone and sync with your health data. It will monitor your calorie intake throughout the day, and when the integrated AI thinks you’ve eaten enough, the spoon will vibrate to shake off any remaining food.
It will automatically take pictures of what you’re eating and post them to your social media feeds, and share with friends and family. This feature is on by default and can only be disabled manually through the spoon settings.
The OLED screen and speaker built into the handle will display high-definition ads for food recommendations at the nearest grocery store. The pro model has a microphone so you can easily add items to your shopping list. You can opt-out of ads for just $5/month.
It weighs 3kg and is hand-wash only.
Jailed for the crime of not wanting to be forcibly bred.
This is the future republicans want.
The c-suite culture cares about one thing: “Number go up”
They do not give a shit why people are still on reddit. They look at the site traffic analytics and as long as the number is going up, they think they’re doing the right thing. Your mere presence on the site is only seen as opportunity for them to squeeze out more ad revenue.
“But I don’t click on the ads!”
They don’t care about that either! Every time an ad appears on your screen, that gets recorded as a data point in their analytics, regardless of whether or not you interact with it.
They just want to see the numbers go up. They don’t care how it happens, as long as it happens.
If you want to hit them where it hurts, stop engaging with the site.
Precisely this.

They left twitter and moved to truth social, only to realize there’s no one to troll in a private echo chamber.
So they came back to twitter just as everyone else started leaving due to musk’s bullshit.
Now with threads positioning itself as a viable alternative to twitter, it was inevitable that they would make their way there too.
These people have made conflict such a fundamental aspect of their personalities that when they don’t have it they go looking for places to create it.
It’s a lot less “social media” and a lot more “social advertising”.
All I see is different brand accounts and influencers memeing on each other.
