@rowanfornow You have heard of the saying that "if at first you don't succeed, try again", right? The point is to keep trying to hit that threshold so that the Green Party can inevitably break the 2-party system and become a major party in its own right. Her efforts should be commended.

I think men are often surprised when powerful men face consequences because it breaks a fantasy they quietly hold: that enough power, money and influence should make you untouchable

@PicturesFoIder People are mean. I hope he takes care of his mental health.

Can we also do this with high speed rail? We can call it the trump train whatever who cares

Someone that lacks this kind of integrity in his personal life will absolutely cut corners in his professional life. This is exactly why intelligence services target people who are serial cheaters.

If the husband wants to spread his seed, he just shouldn’t have agreed to monogamy.

Reputation is the cornerstone of power. Through reputation alone you can intimidate and win; once it slips, however, you are vulnerable, and will be attacked on all sides. Make your reputation unassailable.

This is a good question to ask because so many people do not understand. So I will explain...

Your personal life is rarely if ever separate from your professional life. We've been led to believe this, but this is not how humans developed over thousands of years. Your personal life was your professional life. And just as you signed a contract for your employment, marriage is also a contract.

This man signed a contract to hold onto company secrets and do what was best for the company. He then broke his marriage contract (which we know because he directly apologized to his wife publicly), and so now it shows he has a character flaw that directly impacts his ability to uphold contracts.

A liar in their personal life is a liar in their professional life. A contract breaker in their personal life, is a contract breaker in their professional life (which we KNOW because he was having affairs with colleagues and other people in the industry). We have no idea what secrets slipped during his affairs.

The separation we imagine between professional and private is 100% artificial. You have to exercise EXTREME discipline to pull it off. Your vices and flaws do not magically disappear due to an invisible line drawn between personal and professional. He demonstrated that he lacked the necessary discipline to be CEO.

@JerryCap How people view this situation is a litmus test for basic decency.

Remind yourself that winning an argument or proving your point really gets you nowhere in the long run. Win through your actions, not your words.

A Lack of sexual discipline and a lack of loyalty to your life partner will ruin your life.

According to Twitter, cheating on your wife with a spy AND a direct report is actually fine if you're successful enough.

The moral rot in the U.S. tech community is like, actually insane

@COTM_2 The state of Israel shouldn't be conflated with Jews in the same way that the Vatican shouldn't be conflated with Catholics.

@Polymarket lol OMG. The family resemblance is so strong.

@wistfulspace @MYSTlXX Oh, I thought this was a reference to Moesha.

If you expect your elderly wife of over 40 years to have to compete with all of the women in the world for your sexual attention, you probably shouldn't get married.
