Occam's Razor is also known as the Principle of Parsimony; I was using it in that sense.

Occam's Razor? interesting. I thought I was applying this one: the simplest mental strategies able to propel you to the top of the capitalist and media elite. "Being incredibly impulsive" may seems straightforwardly "true" but it does not look "sufficient" as explanation to me.

Maybe The truth is somewhere in the middle. I don't know.

"Do you not know, my son, with how very little wisdom the world is governed?"
Agreed.

But this is not about wisdom. It is about how you get to the top by being strategically calculating and manipulative, all the fucking time. These people are there because they are a herd of wolves, not sages.
