He's a fucking idiot who figured out how to make a web site and got lucky with what he built and when he built it. He is not brilliant by any measure. Fuck him.

All of the billionaires are fucking idiots who got lucky. I have no idea why people look up to them like they're supergeniuses. They're clearly not. We've learned to equate money with intelligence but there's actually little connection. I'd argue it's more closely aligned with immorality, and of course luck is a big part of it. The immorality just helps you turn a little startup luck into even more "luck", recursively, forever.
