Viewing things entirely through the lens of “hater” might be the issue here. There’s value to substantive critique that isn’t all ego-driven like Ed. My DMs reveal he’ll credit other people in private while continuing to make himself the center of attention. Have a nice one!

It’s always some old white guy that looks like this pretending they know everything. A world built for you and you still couldn’t make anything of yourself but being a scolding poster on the internet. You’ve never built anything at the scale or impact I have, and you will be irrelevant soon.
