You know, society is a fragile thing.

Gotta wonder if his asshole is jealous of the shit that comes out of his mouth.

There are 3000 - 3400 billionaires globally... If anyone should be on their best behavior, it should be the group of people who together might fill out a mid sized cruiseliner. They are outnumbered 2.38 MILLION to 1.

I say put them on said cruise liner and let the orcas at them.

Hey Larry Ellison. Go fuck yourself!

I once cast him as a random enemy vampire in an occult horror TTRPG. That was years ago, and he's never once done anything that made me regret it.

This comment will earn me -30 Social Status Points

calling him a technologist, is not something i would describe him as. dont you mean PEDDLING palantir through your datacenters.

We’re coming Larry. Be on your best behavior.

Great, they can get multiple angles of the ravenous horde tearing him and his family apart like in dawn of the dead. Should make good tv.

"Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."

They used to use this as scare propaganda against China.

Reminder, you don't hate big tech enough

"but not me or the rest of the ruling class, of course" he clarified.

I don't want him to die. I just want him to stop being evil and hurting people for money. It's a shame the only way for that to happen is for him to be rendered permanently unconscious.

Maybe Ellison should lead by example and share all his fucking data

Luigi did nothing wrong.

I'd rather spend my life in prison for an attempt to destroy their surveilance than be on my best behaviour. It's only white collar crime that goes unpunished? Fuck you big brother asshat!

Legendary wizard Voldemort...

I can't wait for Gary Cole to play Ellison in the biopic about his decent into madness with the rest of the techbro set.

Oh. I thought aligning our goals/interests and making sure everyone had something to look forward to while making them feel supported and invested in their world was the way to put people on their best behavior. But I guess it's violence. Good to know!

In light of this: Kill a tech worker. Make it horror shit. Don't just walk up with a gun, take a long shot, rig a car bomb, poison a bagel. Something out of scope of their normal reflexive paranoia. Make it violence not only against the body you destroy but the perception of the others. Violate them. Make everything a threat. I guess. This sounds like so much work, why can't we just have meetings? Nice, catered, meetings?

Sounds very much like a black mirror episode i regret watching.

Thankfully both Oracle and Larry Ellison are going to go bankrupt because they bet the farm on AI and they're going to lose it all
