Yeah, absolutely. For every stupid decision he made (buying Instagram, Whatsapp, Oculus etc.), making the company worth almost $1 Trillion, yeah, he's a horrible CEO. As a stockholder, I just hate him.
Pablo Escobar was pretty good at making money too.

Nobody here talk about money making, there are things more important in life. Like, you know, not running drug traffic or mass espionage.

One can be a both good capitalist and a threat to democracy.
I agree that capitalism and democracy have nothing to do with each other.

But I still think a capitalist who is a threat to US democracy is not a good capitalist.

Not good for democracy, not good for other capitalists and/or entrepreneurs, not good for the capital itself, and not good enough for me.
