      They also drive innovation

        Do they, though?

        Scientists drive innovation, engineers drive innovation

        Billionaires just throw money around

        Tax billionaires until their fortune is at a max of say, 10 million dollars. Use those trillions in tax revenue to fund a wife range of non profit orgs that will fund companies to improve innovation.

        Sounds like a much better solution than the current timeline

          Maybe but then it should be either one of these, not just the abolishment of one.

          I know he also wasted a lot of money (software side of metaverse), but he also put a lot of R&D into virtual reality headsets, which he will continue to develop.

              You’re saying the original Oculus is a better performing product than its modern counterpart? I don’t think you’re really saying that, so why won’t you be clear in what you’re actually saying instead of being vague and pretending you’re making such a smart and perceptive comment.

              Perhaps you’re talking about his business practices or his work ethic that you don’t agree on. Say something that doesn’t sound ridiculously stupid, and in such a manner that I can ACTUALLY understand what the fuck you’re talking about.

          Zuckerberg stole facebook from three of his former classmates, and when sued paid them 65 million dollars in 2009.

          So yes, he absolutely can backstab.

      That would be the best reality show in the whole of the universe. How I’d love to see the drama, relationships and power dynamics that form. Who gets it in their butt first, who starts dividing the rooms, who hides the salt, etc.
