The need for social acceptance and validation is deep in our brains, and some smart people iteratively built apps to prey on that as effectively as possible. Wealth does not immunize

Watching our mad king don his AI slop crown and publicly fantasize about rage shitting on our moment of collective power is the perfect counterpoint: he's the one isolated in his impotent fury, clinging to the online simulacrum while we primally express and experience our very real strength.
