Plus, hell hath no wrath like a nerd who stumbles into power.
My reductive opinion is that nerds come in two main flavors. Ones that are upset that the world is unfair, and are empathically motivated to change it for the better.
And then there’s ones like Benzos or Elon, the nerds who see the world as a totem poll. Totem poles where they have been placed below their true position in life. They don’t want to get rid of the totem pole, they want to make it bigger, and they want to be at the top, so they may punish those who got in their way.
Any armchair psychologists care to weigh in on Elmo?
