Facebook Bankers Secretly Cut Facebook’s Revenue Estimates in the Middle of IPO Roadshow

asshole

I think it would be quite an understatement to say that this is some bull. All that I picture while reading this is Zuckerberg sitting in his “modest” home on his “modest” 24k gold throne, smiling his shit-eating smile, knowing full-well that once again, he’s gotten away with being an arrogant, money-grubbing, asshole. Of the banks, I believe one person said it best when they stated “they are considered too big to fail, so we could never close them down”. Morgan Stanley, JP Morgan, and Goldman Sachs should be more than ashamed of themselves. They are criminals, and the only difference between them and Zuckerberg is that the banks aren’t even clever criminals because everyone knows they’re full of shit. They just have money and the government to back them while playing dumb. Zuckerberg can at least be given credit for being clever because he’s gotten this far and is still getting people to back him. He tries to humanize himself by making pledges like personally killing any animal he eats or taking the year to learn Mandarin or wear ties to work instead of his lazy, college-kid hoodies. The trouble is; he’s not human. He’s well-oiled and perfectly callibrated, and knows exactly what strings to pull. Zuckerberg has already repeatedly proven he cannot be trusted (seriously- The Hacker Company?), so to anybody who is not a bank or a millionaire (or a billionaire-and even then); why would you want to invest your hard-earned money into an IPO that clearly has the great potential to be a giant scam? Was the fact that it fell on opening day and is still dropping not enough of a sign? How about the fact that it was insanely overhyped? Being zuckered into it would be folly.
