It's not that they can't stick to anything... The issue is that they come up with shit ideas that they implement immediately without any planning. Then when the idea turns out to be shit publicly they have to walk it back at least partially because it isn't doing what they wanted. They don't care about how it looks, but the ideas are so terrible that they aren't even accomplishing what they intend.
Honestly, I'm at the point where, while I think there is a great deal of malice and certainly some horrific long-term plans, I genuinely believe that these people are idiots at this point. I think many of their actions lack any intention beyond the immediate and impulsive emotional reactions of a thin-skinned narcissist.
We are not just being ruled by evil shitheads, we're being ruled by evil shitwits.
They’re six years old playing their first run of Civilization and think winning means destroying everything else and taking everything you can, but you don’t know what all the menus mean yet so you just start clicking random stuff to see what happens.
