Agreed. I also think a lot of these very successful types need a fire under them and have to be pushing something forward. If money is no longer a motivator, it gets political or into philanthropy etc - they aren't content with just counting their money and enjoying what they built. What's next, what to do now etcDuring her time during the HP years politics on the left was pretty milquetoast pretty much bengin neglect discussion when it comes to identity. Most older white people hate feeling they have to be held to some type of standard, it was much easier for the bill mahers Elon musk etc to say a bunch of off the head semi racist shyt without backlash because " identity politics" was ignored in 90s/00s. The transgender shyt is just a distraction for them and how they have been successful with fascist movements across the entire west starting in Europe. Why can't we just go back to when we didnt have to think about race or sex, things was easier for us white people.
JK and Elon are rich, and they both seem driven by insecurities and trauma. The people who tell themselves that they are truly great, are thinking about their legacy. How will I be remembered? As just another rich person, or as someone who stood for something? These are some of the most highly driven and motivated people out there. But also very bored and lonely, it seems
