Don't forget that Steve Huffman legitimately expects all of society to collapse and makes plans to survive it, including getting as much money and as many resources as possible. (The part where he helps to bring it about doesn't seem to register).

Lol.

When shit hits the fan it's the PT gods that can grab their shit and hump it in the boonies who are going to survive, not some pencil neck weekend warriors with guns and ammo and a motorcycle.

"I also have this somewhat egotistical view that I’m a pretty good leader. I will probably be in charge, or at least not a slave, when push comes to shove."

So much of what reddit is going through right now makes much more sense.

Steve Huffman fantasizes about becoming a dictator after society's collapse. So in a future, Mad Max-style dystopian hellscape, what would be the most likely role for a blond, blue-eyed, narcissistic plutocrat with a background in competitive ballroom dancing?
