no, but this is:

>stop lionizing the maverick genius

>nth brilliant asshole

>untamed superiority complex

>myopic nerd

>motivated by ressentiment

Nobody even meant to imply that.

Critique isn't jealousy. Expect to grow out of that PoV in 5-10 years.

See my comment below.

So you feel the tone is too harsh. I'll grant that it is harsh. But I chose it because it's proportional to how misguided the celebration of anti-social tech geniuses really is. The era of uncritically celebrating these personalities is well and truly over for most of us.

>So you feel the tone is too harsh.

No. My objection is that your comment is spiteful and hysterical.

This isn't about anyone's personality. Can't you see that?
