No. The common denominator between the average CEO and the average sexual offender is an all-encompassing sense of entitlement: I should have what I want, and you need to give it to me, and if I have to wrest it from you in ways that are harmful to you, well that’s okay too. And it’s not just those two groups, it’s anyone who regularly relies on coercion and abuse to get what they want, right down to what happens in the home where domestic violence is the problem.
As our president himself has proven beyond all doubt, in countless acts of power combined with the sexual misuse of others, from children to E. Jean Carroll, the jump from CEO to sexual offender is really NOT the impossible intellectual leap you seem to think it is, nor is it unfitting in this context.
I’m following you. Thanks for the the note. I agree that you can’t become a billionaire without “taking”, I just think the argument is more compelling without this hyperbole.
