It's easy to poke fun at Mark because he's mega rich and can come off a little stiff, but he's pretty interesting to listen when he's speaking without a script.

Here's Mark when he was 21 giving a lecture at Harvard's CS50: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFFs9UgOAlE

It's also possible for be interesting at one point in their life, and as the world around them changes together with their own mind changes, they fall into the category of not being interesting anymore. Or, similarly to many crazy world leaders, they can become "interesting" in the sense of how evil and crazy they sound when they talk about their ideas.

That's a good point, people can definitely become uninteresting. I'd say he's still interesting, but more guarded which is uninteresting... If that makes sense

I like Mark but I don't personally use any Meta products.

(With apologies to Noël Coward) Facebook is for investing in, not being on.

[andy_ppp]

Is that because meta products use you?

[2OEH8eoCRo0]

How so?

well the problem is not that he is stiff or rich but that he is evil. 'They "trust me". Dumb Fucks.'

Honestly when I hear Zuck speak in interviews, I constantly pick up on the sense that this is someone who wants to be liked by the audience he is engaging with. You can pick up on it in the CS50 lecture (he's kinda trying to sound very anti corporate). You pick up on it in this interview

"They 'trust me'. Dumb fucks" in the context of his age, just sounds like a young adult trying to be edgy in an online chat.
