"I'm socially liberal, but Democrats won't allow me to run my business like a turn of the century Oil Barron."

Another billionaire asshole.

Not politically homeless but I think we're all agreed we don't want him living with us. We don't need another obnoxious roommate.

is Sam Altman … smart at all? he sounds really dumb and whiny here

Yeah, I knew I hated this guy early on. Ending billionaires will make everyone's life better. And they can just imagine how much money they can save when they don't need as much security around them 24/7 because we don't want them off the mortal coil any more.

Maybe donate to help support a food bank or other organization that actually helps people? That would be easy too.

Seriously! You have everything! Go enjoy yourself and shut the fuck up!

They want obeisance, blind worship, and a weird parental fondness, all at the same time. They may just need someone to pat them on the head and say "you're a clever little business monster, despite at all the pain and suffering you cause just by existing, we still love you!"

Objectively, no you wouldn't, which is why Billionaire wealth shouldn't exist. No Billionaires just chill with their money, because that level of money is an economy in itself, not an income. It's incredibly inefficient and morally bankrupt, to put that much of our resources into one person.

Sam has an ego that is born out of deep insecurity.

I mean just make everyone a billionaire problem solved amiright?

"HUGE PENISES FOR EVERYONE!"

I hope the societal parasites think we mean they should be exterminated, tbh. We should all be shouting “billionaires should not exist!” with our whole chest. However the oligarchs choose to interpret that threat is not our concern right now as long as they’re scared, imo.

I don't think every individual should have a private jet and forty houses and thousands of times more money than they could spend in a lifetime, actually. I think this would be bad for the economy.

also I don't want everyone to have private jets and multiple mansions and weddings where they rent out half a fucking city. I want *no one* to have any of these things.

"I'd rather hear from candidates about how they are going to make everyone have the stuff billionaires have instead of how they are going to eliminate billionaires," They do, it’s called paying your taxes, you goofy bitch.

Luigi was right. He is the light in this world of darkness.

Hey Altman, I've got a suggestion on how to solve this problem you're immediately obsessed with.

What is it about unremarkable assholes that gets them so hyped?

Delicious? Idk, man. It's inevitable, but I think it's actually going to suck for everyone because so much capital is exposed and the AI emperor is definitely naked.

I suspect Altman’s claim of “political homelessness” is part of priming the public for Musk’s so-called America Party, which will bring together the tech oligarchs and fuel their plans of ruling over a deskilled, surveilled public while the tech overlords live in “freedom cities.”

nope

I have a dream and it’s a simple dream where every billionaire explodes into a thousand stars.

Assuming “stuff” means healthcare.

"We should encourage people to make tons of money and then also find ways to widely distribute wealth and share the compounding magic of capitalism," Either he is an idiot or a liar in that he cannot see the contratration of capital results in political capture by the capitalist class.

Hence the label business monster, and the use of terms like dragon's hoard when referring to their wealth.

The holy trinity of shit: church + state + corporation.

"Why doesn't everyone go out and make a lot of money and then share it in a thoughtful way?" Good idea, Sam. Why don't you set an example. I'm sure the people emptying your wastebaskets at night will be taking notes.

Many clowns pandering to Trump by attacking Dems. Obviously they are not in power, so these comments have a deliberate purpose.

Aww, another sad billionaire 😢

💯

Politically homeless means maga. He’s maga …. Until the political wins definitively shift. But until then he may not post maga but he’s definitely making maga 💰 contributions

The guy is a liar and a cheat who's only claim to fame is the ability to get brunchlords to part with their cash. He should be actually homeless.

Sam, I've never heard of anything so tragic.

Or longer. Longer would be nice.

Why am I supposed to care what Sam fucking Altman’s political opinions are?

Democrats let the tech bros do literally whatever TF they wanted for decades. Then, when it became clear they couldn’t be trusted to self-regulate as they promised and rules had to be implemented they bit the hand that fed them and defected to the most malevolent GOP ever. Fuck Sam Altman.

What "stuff" is he even talking about? We get the stuff, but not the billions? So, sound like he's a socialist, but doesn't realize it.

Didn't this piece of shit initially do Open AI as a public benefit corporation, but then later changed it to a for-profit corporation? Artificial intelligence is both the product *and* the maker.

Can't pass for human.

* does NOT want to pay taxes. You get the jist

I regularly confuse them.

“30 seconds? But I’ll die.” Oh ok. Try 45 seconds.

Let's all think of versions of the Titan submersible in which this chud might possibly be interested.

The compounding magic of capitalism makes tons of people homeless, and not just politically.

He wants everyone to wear the bad jeans and sneakers! Equality!

Altman is a great argument for capping personal wealth at $1 billion or less. That way, we don’t have to listen to such nonsense. He’d just be another well-off idiot.

Whinging oligarchs isn't news.

Yeah - the reason everyone isn't out there 'making tons of money' is bc they haven't been encouraged to do so.

Eventually the game world will spawn mission giving foozles, who send tax cavaliers to suppress the dragons. It may also randomly spawn rogues to steal from that horde, or vandals to put pressure on local infrastructure that the business monster relies on.

Another tech bro, high on their own bullshit, upset that they can’t do whatever the hell it is they want to do. Yes Sam, shut the fuck up.

*By "entrepreneurship" he means scamming people into investing into a massive bubble of a tech fantasy that no one can deliver. And by "innovation" he means, if he could deliver it would lead to massive unemployment, lower wages, and destitution around the world.

also how is this news lol

Co-sign

Folks like this want to be small r racists, not big R racists who run the party today. They want special treatment instead of being equal in the eyes of the law. And they don't want to pay taxes bc that's their money, dangnabbit, and they know how to use it better than the gubmint.

So he lost all his money during Obama and Biden and only gained it back under Trump administrations?? Get the fuck outta here

I’m a nazi, but I can’t say that. You feel me?

Sam thinks it’s the “stuff” billionaires have that people want. No sir, it’s the power, political and otherwise that comes along with those billions of dollars. That’s what we’re all fucking sick of.

Maybe he has no friends because he’s a no-personality dickwad.

I couldn’t agree more.

Another person that feels entitled to exploit people he’s never met to maintain the oligarchy.

Well boo-fucking-hoo! 😠

Oh boo hoo

Every other week with this guy. “Please regulate ai(kneecap my competition), lol jk, I made a marketing splash on an ai wearable, nothing to worry about. Oops, didnt work out. Guess I’m politically homeless now because I’m not sure which money spigot I need at this exact moment.”

“Politically homeless” huh? He should try “actually homeless” and see if that clears things up a bit.

"Im too much of a gormless asshole to admit i'm republican so im gonna blame the democrats"

Was he trying to suck more money out of the people listening to him?

Before unlimited money no one cared. He only had one vote and little influence.

"'We should encourage people to make tons of money and then also find ways to widely distribute wealth and share the compounding magic of capitalism,' [Altman] wrote." There's a difference between being gainful/productive/profitable and being obscenely greedy.

Sam is politically a flaming asshole.

He is our anti-Sally Fields: "You don't love me! You don't love me!"

Wild that this guy was accused by his sister of raping her for years, and it's rarely mentioned when people talk about him.

They are so completely out of touch with reality...

Billionaires should be taxed on their net worth, they shouldn't get tax expenditures (deductions, exemptions, and preferential rates), and their kids should get $10 million each with the rest going to the Social Security Trust Fund.

That would be great if billionaires were helping to fund programs and initiatives that would uplift people and give them opportunities. Instead, we are taking away education, food security and healthcare from those that need it most to give tax breaks to billionaires.

BILLIONAIRES have a right to exist, but I don't believe the federal government should help them pad their coffers at the expense of every other person in the US. OF COURSE, that is just an opinion.

maga adjacent

Unlike the many who are literally homeless.

I would feel ok if he remains politically homeless.

Tech bros on a mission to destroy the country that allowed them to become billionaires. How much more could you possibly want when you have everything you could possibly need for 100 generations?

lets make him literally homeless

"I'm a long-weekend cocaine party away from putting on a Brown Shirt and goose-stepping because taxes are meanie to me..."

We need an economic revolution, based on a reimagination of what we can achieve with Co-operative enterprises in the internet age. One that builds sustainability while fighting oligarchy and proliferating economic democracy.

Perhaps people wouldn’t be against billionaires like Altman, Thiel, Musk etc if those guys didn’t think they have a right to rule over the rest of us, either directly or through controlling policy. We all want what billionaires have? Callous, arrogant, disconnected? Hardly.

18 seconds would be like an eternity of silence coming from him.

What.a.dick.

The contradictions in his life are making him uncomfortable

Ah so he's a Republican Of the GOP Republicans

This is stage 1 in the standard script of coming out as a Republican.

No no no let’s hear from one of history’s great men tell us untermenschen why they’re a superior form of life who not only deserve all the worlds wealth but also total control over the rest of us. Cause, ya know, they helped invented a fucking app.

#SamAltmanTechnofeudalLord

Politically homeless is such a stupid term.

Dems are evil for asking Sam and people like him to pay extra to properly fund education and healthcare for poor people. Fuck that guy.

We get it, democrats threaten your way of life because they think that maybe after a billion in net worth you should step up a little more to help society… We get it that, having re-read Ayn Rand in your adulthood, you find this appalling. How about growing up a little bit instead of blaming Dems?

This is great news. I don’t want that fuck in the party.

maybe he could worry more about people being literally homeless instead of making obscene sums of money putting us all out of work

politically homeless and morally bankrupt.

Yes, affordable shelter would be great. Off course Altman never has to worry about that. So, not having to worry about affordable housing, yes who wouldn’t want that. Dumba—

Narcissists gotta narcissist. 🤷‍♀️

yes, please shut the fuck up you poor twisted creature.

Maybe he should spread his wealth to house people who are actually homeless While shutting TF up

If people aren't look at him he dies.

I just read his official pitch deck to Australia which is essentially the government should help imbed his company in society and any services they provide (pay for) like ed and health. FOR PROSPERITY. I imagine a similar document is floating around my country. I want to scream.

Billionaires shouldn't exist. Either give it away. Or go away.

Didn't he abuse his sister, who was literally homeless (living in her car)?

Oh, Sam. What Mr. Mamdani was saying is that billionaires should pay their fair share of taxes and - as you yourself say - widely distribute those gains afforded to you by capitalism. Instead, many billionaires pay near 0 in taxes. You’re not politically homeless, you’re politically clueless.

Must be tough to be homeless. Politically.

But if everybody is a billionaire, then…

We DGAF.

His right wing 'magical thinking' based on the 'Trickle down economics'. Unfortunately the old human frailty - GREED - is too often a feature of the rich. They are NOT interested in spreading their wealth - but accumulating more for themselves. Exhibit - the horrendous DT bill just passed.

Maybe Altman should consider moving to South Sudan. Or El Salvador.
