  • Huffman / spez is trying to follow the same outrage farming playbook that countless other rich guys like Trump and Musk have followed.

    1. Gain money and/or control over something prominent that more or less works
    2. Identify targets that you want to hurt or screw over
    3. Make big changes that damage the thing you control with no time for your targets to adjust
    4. When your targets complain or protest, double down and don’t apologize or change course
    5. Cultivate a critical mass of smoothbrained useful idiots that enjoy the way you stick to your guns and hurt others
    6. ???
    7. Profit. Literally. You’ll have a smaller base, but they’re loyal and you can make money off of them.

    The question is whether spez will get to step 5. He’s already gotten to step 4.
