What happened with him specifically tho, what lead to this?
In my experience, a fair amount of "rich kids" in the millenial and gen z age range are pretty disillusioned with the system. They might not have come to their conclusions through struggle and inequality. But got there because of empathy.
I think that it has to do with how they were taught in school and when they were young. They grow up on values of kindness and generosity and then, in young adulthood, realize they have benefitted from other peoples labor. The internet and a trend towards more self-awareness probably contribute.
That certainly isn't the case for all rich kids. Most of them are oblivious assholes. But I've met a few.
I had that impulse but its obviously a less usual thing. Was just thinkint about that stuff that said McKinsey only hires rich kids, and like thinking as a rich kid at that fart factory, "God it sucks to be this shitty"
They can be better than that and I applaud those of them who do so regardless of their past motivations or character.
Have you looked at society lately?
$$$ = SPEECH
Havent you looked at society lately haha!?
There's a lot of speculation, but his Twitter banner was an x-ray of a bunch of screws in his spine, and his reading list included a lot of books about backpain.
That'll do it 🩻
It's a good question, I'm very curious to know if he did this for political reasons, personal reasons, or both.
~~Seems like he is a claims adjuster. I’m guessing he has met a lot of people who he has to turn down~~
I fell for a joke.
Source that for me because literally nothing I’ve read in the past hour tracks with what you just said.
Actually, I think that was supposed to be a joke. He was adjusting. Har har. Went over my head.
So, I guess he’s a software developer of some kind based on what the news released about his education.
The source: I just made it up
