Would be interesting to see the numbers for Gabe Newell, he always seems to somehow get away with being a billionaire without getting hated the way most publicly famous billionaires are.

    Gabe's crimes :

    • Billionaire
    • Charges 30% for steam sales
    • Cosmetics sold in valve games are the same level of gambling as pokemon cards, due to existence of secondary market.

    Zuck's Crimes :

    • Violating privacy of every person for all time
    • Makes shitty deals with phone manufacturers to shoehorn his shit in there
    • Forces people to use whatsapp through network effects.
    • biased every election forever, caused resurgence of fascism and brexit.
    • Instagram resposible for influencers and self esteem issues in kids.

    This might be why.
