So 7 ? Ok let's go :
There are way mooore than seven though ! ! Maybe I should have make an ordered list ? ๐ค๐
How did Andreessen and Theil not make this list of your's?
Bill Gates doesn't belong on that list. He's an entirely different league of vile, and he actively tries to change that image.
He's no Mark Cuban, but he sure ain't no Peter Thiel, who is glaringly missing from your list.
The guy that got kicked out of his company for sexual harassment, tried to rehabilitate Epstein in the eyes of high society, prevented a COVID vaccine patent from being made available to the entire world, and set the stage to tech-feudalism by illegally creating a monopoly, doesn't belong where?
He's even fellating Trump non stop nowadays.
Comparing Tim Cook to Lex Luthor is somehow an insult to both parties.
Fossil fuel execs, nestle ceo didn't even make the cut. What kind of inverse golden age are we living in.
Turns out narrowing the list down to a mere seven isn't so easy. There's just so... many.
I don't want to defend any of these narcissists, but every single fossil fuel, pharma, MIC owner/CEO of the 20th C is probably a hundred times more evil โ more responsible for fascism and Trump โ than any of these tech bros jumping in at the last mile. Those old guard oligarchs have been bribing politicians for decades.
Non owner CEO's like Brian Thompson are more like an "uncle Tom" class traitor โ a figurehead/footsoldier โ than an oligarch, and are a dime a dozen. The primary controlling shareholder(s) and board of directors are the Hydra, pulling the strings in the background.
According to Wikipedia and Forbes, there's about 2,781
