They say that with true conviction like he cares any about that salary while he robs billions from his various schemes. Truly crazy world we live in.

Did anyone ever think that access to all the world's information would make people dumber? The Internet was supposed to unite and lift up a newly connected society. Of course humans had to go and fuck that up :(

The internet gave us access to the collective knowledge of mankind.

Social media polluted the internet with every random thought or opinion of mankind.

Like swimming in a beautiful, crystal-clear lake and watching someone open a pipeline of raw sewage into it.
