Musk's endless string of faceplants with Twitter is a good illustration of why the rich shouldn't rule the world. They're not wise. They're not even particularly smart. They just figured out how to play our shitty capitalist system which elevates assholes and sociopaths.

CA: Do you agree in hindsight you probably should have checked with the QPS to see whether Rolfe’s account was consistent with the account of attending police? KA:...I was going off what I was told. I was expecting the truth & I thought it was just a fine. I didn’t pursue it.

CA:…has that guide book been updated since 2016? KA:…It's outdated, it's not used COR: What is used? KA: We don't have a general order as such, but just going off what members have been doing over the years. We know the procedures…there's not actually anything written down
