We’re already treated like things, and when you multiply that by billionaires who treat *everybody* like things, it’s little wonder they singled us out.

They just saw property waiting to be claimed.

Players only get the lyrics. Each song type comes with its own premade (but incredible) routine.

Yes. Being exploitative predators who steal from the ones doing the work doesn’t make them savvy in the least.

They’re deluded marks in positions that allow them to transfer the consequences of their gullibility and impulsiveness onto others while taking any rewards for themselves.

And they’re really *cowardly* gamblers to boot! Too afraid to back anything that isn’t safe, primed to pull away in panic if just one little thing doesn’t go as perfectly as expected.

The whole “job” is about placing bets, yet the last thing they actually want to do is bet on anything.

Right? They’ve tasted the fanciful promise of free labor and they can no longer swallow anything else.

Now they have to keep believing in a world where incorporeal fairies make products that millions of unemployed people will somehow be able to buy. They’re retreating to a full-on fantasy land.

Said it before, will say it always - for a bunch swindlers, executives & investors are the biggest marks going.

Naive fantasists who believe anything that validates their myopic prebaked view of reality. Unable to change, unwilling to learn. Marks.

They’re THE reason the industry’s suffering.

For nearly 20 years I’ve witnessed game execs make the same mistakes, over and over, convinced they’ve got it right every time.

It should be *impossible* to learn as little as they’ve learned, to be exactly as dumb now as they were two decades ago. Yet… here we are.

Their arrogance is stunning.

Self-styled investors are so risk averse they’ve circled around to making huge gambles on faint (and fantastical) promises of total risk elimination. So obsessed with free labor they’re paying the highest prices to get it.

We can ALL see it, but in true sucker fashion, they insist they know better.

I’ve said for several years now that, for a bunch of wannabe swindlers, execs and their investor chums are the biggest marks in any business.

I swear every attempt they’ve made to prey on customers is a projection of the tactics that work on them.

The sheer swiftness of their response to Google’s newest proposal to conjure profits from fucking nothing tells you plenty about how little “investors” care about investing in anything. I doubt many of them even know what investment actually is.

They quite genuinely want to buy magic spells.

I put “investors” in quotes because what they do isn’t investment. They’re not here to build or to fund, they’re looking to make money for nothing.

These days, they put money behind projects that are practically complete and already have plenty of resources. Cash cows, not investments.

Those things are not edible. They’re little round knives made of acid.

And one of the first survivors to step forward to try to stop Epstein? A trans woman, who was promptly mocked and villified by the New York Post, New York Magazine, the courts and law enforcement.

Absolutely. Anybody who can stomach being a billionaire is already bereft of humanity. It’s an inherently warped, evil thing to be.

I’m sure it was part of the fun. These creatures actively revel in abuse for the sake of abuse, not just enjoying monstrous acts but enjoying them *because* they’re monstrous. Purest fucking evil.

About six years ago, Bobby Kotick’s name came up in Epstein’s “little black book.” It really was only a matter of time before we saw how deeply he associated with a sex trafficking nonce.

I wonder if he thinks this is worse for his dating life than the devil horn photoshops were.
