.@JTLonsdale on billionaires giving away money for bad causes to virtue signal: “They’re cowards.” “The only valuable philanthropy is stuff for which you will be attacked.” “A lot of my friends hire people who are much further to the left than them.” “I’ve seen it with Mark [Zuckerberg] and Priscilla— I know Mark’s not that left, but the people they hire under him are. And they let them run wild, and they’re busy.” “It’s tough to be the bad guy.” “People like @elonmusk are willing to admit your mistake and change things. When he was working on the America Pac—he would keep changing who was in charge, 4 times, until it worked.” “That takes lot of psychic energy and boldness and willingness to be criticized.” “Most of these people who hire people around them that are not working out— they let them keep doing it. It’s frustrating.” Via @KatieMiller @katiemillerpod
