You know the saying "hurt people hurt people"? He's a hurt person who is hurting our society, making people I care about less safe. The consequences of this one man's midlife crisis are global, and that terrifies me. 5

So what does he do? He bullies and threatens and harasses and trolls and behaves like the weak, scared, insecure child he has always been. That's a tragedy for him, but it's dangerous for us. He doesn't care what he destroys or who he hurts as he chases this existential thing he cannot ever have.4

They are his army of fools, uncritically serving his every whim. And it still isn't enough.

He can have any material thing he wants, and he will never be happy or satisfied.
He has no real friends. Every single person around him is either a viper, a parasite, or both. 3

Some number of them will come after me, as they come after anyone who points at their naked emperor.

They'll spend entire days going after me and people like me, slavishly serving a man who does not even know they exist.

He's the richest man on the planet. You can't go anywhere or do anything without interacting with something he's part of in some way. There are literal millions of people who uncritically worship him, in spite of overwhelming evidence that he's a douchebag. 2

Ugh! Now I won’t be buying #Coca-Cola products. Good thing Mountain Dew Baja Blast is available.
