Description
Mark Zuckerberg has transformed from unsuspecting nerd to an MMA fighter taking on arch tech bro Elon Musk. What has changed? Bobby Friction speaks to Wessie du Toit, a freelance writer behind the newsletter The Pathos of Things, about Zuckerberg 2.0 and if we should be concerned about his macho man transformation.
- “After the 2016 election, Zuckerberg became a pantomime villain so he needed a makeover.”
- “You don’t see CEOs of energy companies threatening to fight each other in cage matches.”
- “His increasingly desperate efforts to build his metaverse just look sad.”
