I have been hating this man's guts since the mid 90's and somehow it never lets off. Most hateful people manage to become a little bit more likeable as they age. Even this disgusting piece of human refuse Bill Gates might pass for a somewhat okay human being if you wilfully overlook why he truly does philanthropy.

But Larry Ellison? Hell no. He never changes. he's just consistently the worst year after year, decade after decade.

Yeah. He is pretty horrible. What surprised me though is his daughter's film company has a pretty solid track record on quality movies and tv series:

But yeah, Larry Elison sucks...

what he really means is he can make a ton of money out of it

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 days ago (2 children)

What he really means is the rich can prevent uprisings against them before they have a chance to start.

Lmg, he'll be exempt from this surveillance along with all his rich ass-hole buddies

Subjugating the working class majority is literally the whole point of establishing a dictatorship of the bourgeoisie.

Who defines what best behavior is?

[–] [email protected] 21 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Well, Larry obviously.

Coincidentally, Larry will not be under surveillance.

Thank you all for these comments, they have made another horrible piece of news a bit less horrible (by knowing people are apaled by this shit).

Ay they took capitalism so far it wrapped around into orwellian territory.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 days ago

1984 was written in 1948, after fascists had already demonstrated that capitalism is quite compatible with totalitarianism.

What? This is exactly what Orwell wrote about

And a fueled bottle can keep billionaires in check.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 days ago

Was he on that island discussing whether the billionaires could keep their security detail loyal with shock collars?

Ellison is the world's sixth-richest man with a net worth of $157 billion, according to Bloomberg.

They are really concerned when people tire of their children dying from hunger and easily treatable diseases, we'll be coming for them. But rather than give up an iota of the money generations can never spend for our ecology and things people need to live, they resort to things like shock collars and surveillance states.

Those are not citizens. This is not a democracy.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 days ago (1 children)

You need to pretend you live in a democracy or the administrators will take away the illusion.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

You really can't overstate this plain truth, and people will still cling to the illusion of freedom.

In other words, lack of accountability leads to bad behaviour. He might be onto something there…

Larry "privacy is dead, get over it" Ellison.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago

Ah, cofounder of Oracle (that terrible software you hate using) if you, like me, were wondering who the fuck this cunt is.

Eat my shit Larry.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 days ago
