Eh. That quote conflates Ellison and Oracle and I don't think that's correct. I think there's a danger in just accepting that a human being is abhorrent. It _should_ outrage us that Ellison is the way he is. It's silly to think "the lawnmower hates me" because it isn't capable of hate. Ellison is capable of hate and it's not deluded to think he might hate you and I and want to control our lives.

Agreed, he's only 41% of Oracle.

I think he also mentions what ORACLE stands for in that quote: One Rich Asshole Called Larry Ellison.

You've fallen into the trap.
