I am genuinely curious to know what happens if he dies. There is no 1T in a bank. An entire empire of shell games would collapse and most of the wealth would just vaporize.

Amazing how we can live in a country that makes an effeminate idiot like Elon Musk a trillionaire, but also makes an effeminate idiot like Spencer Brat unable to afford house insurance.

I remember hearing something once that if people start fantasizing about something enough, they'll start to feel as satisfied as if they had done it, so I think people outwardly verbalizing these things is less activism and more wishful thinking to get over their own anxieties.

I'm pretty sure the French nobility felt invulnerable going into 1789, and I'm guessing the Russian nobility probably felt invulnerable going into 1917. I mean, the masses can be dominated by the nobility for decades or centuries, but there are tipping points. Who knows what they are here

Sure he's the first trillionaire but most of his assets are stocks and if you tried to sell them all, the share values would plummet. Or, SpaceX could crash and go to zero. We could pass a trillionaire tax... Guillotines and socialism are making a lot of sense in the face of this iniquity.
