Worth a read. Bernard Arnault responds to the press.
@X has shifted the balance of power away from the media and back to the people.
Thank you @elonmusk!
@GovTimWalz school should promote western values, american values! itโs not about the kids per se, itโs the ideology and values that want to impose!
This is because the anti-capitalist left is not actually against people being crazy rich. They're against certain types of people being crazy rich.
Artists and athletes make sense to them because they've played music and sports and because their success can be explained by "luck" and "talent". Messi's wealth is not offensive to them because they understand Messi is much better at football than they are.
But when it comes to business, the anti-capitalist leftist has no framework for understanding why Jeff Bezos might be super rich since 99% of them have never ever created a product, business or service that was of value to other people. They've never taken entrepreneurial risk. They've never employed people and felt the burden of responsibility that comes with that. They've never pick up a business and given it a play in the way they've picked up a ball or a guitar.
They *literally* don't understand wealth creation. They think there is a fixed amount of money and the only thing a business does is split it unfairly.
It's why they rage at Elon and other successful business leaders. Because they genuinely don't understand why they're wealthy.
Also, and this is just as important, athletes and artists are disproportionately young, attractive, "diverse", left wing etc. Business leaders are "evil" middle aged white men whose success offends the average anti-capitalist leftist because they don't understand a) what it is they do and b) that Elon Musk has the same talent advantage on them as Messi does, it's just harder to measure.
The best evidence that @NYCMayor Mamdani has not held a job is the fact that he is sitting on the wrong side of the desk.
And listen to his words. On a day when we, and in particular, our leaders should be celebrating the 250 years of our nationโs history, he attacks us and what makes our country great.
Mamdani and the Democratic Socialists are grave threats to our present and our future.
