What.
I thought it was a bad headline. I’m still confused after the article
I’m not sure but it seems maybe Andreesen is a reactionary nutjob and total wanker?
He basically said that Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg’s online spat about having a cage fight makes them role models for children.
Why? Because combat sports can have a healthy place in society.
But… how obtuse do you have to be to equate “combat sports can have a healthy place in society” with “two billionaires having an online dick measuring contest makes them role models for children??”
Andreessen is a crazed numb nuts who bestowed a great gift on us years ago and unfortunately got so rich that he’s been able to pretend to be relevant ever since.
On one hand, I agree that little boys roughhousing is probably a good thing. On the other, most of the people who admire combat seem to be the ones who are afraid to actually walk the streets after dark.
They admire combat as long as they can send other people to their deaths.
Some of you may die, but it’s a sacrifice I’m willing to make!
The muscled ancients!!! 🤣
Even the non funny side of this makes me think, was Steve Jobs a muscled ancient? Pretty sure he moved things forward in technology. I don’t remember him being ripped…
It’s hilarious to imagine how ancient humans would have viewed our body builders. They’d run screaming into the night like they’d seen a cryptid.
Probably only the ones on juice, I think bronze era is achievable just with experimenting with diet and calisthenics that soldiers have known since forever. Training regimen for gladiators even uses the principle of taking it easy every few days to give the body time to rebuild, as their sport was one of performance and aesthetically large muscles.
I feel sorry for his mother having to pass that gourd out her pelvis.
I had heard things, but didn’t realize he was such a putz.
… and an egg head.
