Eh, I wouldn’t say it’s a largely influential factor.
Maybe a handful of tech company founders (e.g. Atlassian guy) have some degree of intelligence in their field, but id argue connections, sociopathy, and the right place at the right time are bigger factors. But most are born into it idiots like Trump or Musk.
Well if you don’t think so, it must be true, right?
And most of the people who cause all this heinous shit aren’t nearly as publicly facing as the ones you mention. Because they’re not idiots. They use the public facing fools as scapegoats for their actions.
I mean, you’re literally stepping on the point and not seeing it…
The point is, it doesn’t matter if they’re intelligent. “Greed can blind even the intelligent.” The entire point is they have a disgusting amount of greed. The greed userps their intelligence as their defining attribute.

You can have multiple traits that affect things. It’s almost never just one thing or another.

How does it feel to lap that up?
