i think this is the perfect example as to why oligarchy is fucking terrible. > proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that he's a liar and bought his poe account > instead of reassessing his position and admitting he bought the account (who even fucking cares?) he doubles down because it hit him right in his ego > attempts to bully people into changing their views on objective reality because it hurts his feelings now imagine that this is something that actually fucking mattered. you know, like the whole jeet scandal. every person has their blinders on, we all have some weaknesses. but knowing a couple of very rich guys myself (multi-millionaires, not billionaires who i imagine are even worse) they're all much much more likely to have some sort of insane god-complex and big personality flaws. they just lose their humanity somewhere along the way.
