I'm not sure being a pseudointellectual (if that's what he is) would make him evil, would it?

I've seen his 'antichrist' talk as part of headlines out of context and to be honest assumed that this is a rhetorical/hyperbolic device, rather than a literal thing. Is your claim that he actually literally thinks someone is the antichrist? So far he just seems to be someone with a bent against degrowthers?

Is there a specific quote or position that makes him _evil_? Rather than just ill-informed or with an unpopular political opinion? Like he might just believe in tech growth at all costs because he really does think it will benefit everyone, or he might pretend to think that because he thinks it will benefit him at the expense of everyone else. It's hard to tell from what you've provided so far.

> would make him evil

I should have been more clear, I am not asserting he is "evil", that is a caricature.

Given his background, and where and how he grew up, the couching of his views through evangelical eyes is cynical. I am asserting that he is a dickhead, who believes he's playing 4d chess, whilst cultivating a band of people who you would describe as "odious" at best.

Now some people might say "oh he's keeping his viewpoint broad", which is bollocks. He's always been an edgelord who thinks he's Machiavelli.

The fact that he keep Karp about, who is so obviously limited as a CEO, and doesn't put a huge fucking gag on him is a leading indicator on what he thinks is reasonable
