What dirty work? Didn't this guy get $69 million dollars?

And you're using a word which from the wikipedia article is described as:

"The term "desk murderer" (German: Schreibtischtäter)[1] is attributed to Hannah Arendt and is used to describe state-employed mass murderers like Adolf Eichmann, who planned and organised the Holocaust without taking part in killings personally."

I'm amazed.

For real. Dude just made an enormous amount of money and was catapulted into broad fame by it. This is the opposite of being cancelled.

That was _before_ the article. Obviously you can't cancel people before you know about them.
