    Y’all should know this is exactly how McKinsey is ran as well. They advise the biggest governments & companies in the world, and it’s mostly staffed by sociopathic, fresh-faced, inexperienced college grads.

    From TFA:

    “One, a senior adviser to the director, is a 21-year-old whose online resume touts his work for Palantir,” per Wired, while another “who reports directly to Scales, graduated from high school in 2024.” A copy of the latter’s resume include his summer internship with Musk’s Neuralink, alongside jobs as — we assure you that we are not joking — a camp counselor and bike mechanic.

    Can you imagine the damage to those kids’ careers when the dust settles after the collapse of the American reich, when their resume reads:

    • 2021-2024: high school
    • Summer of 2024: camp counselor
    • Autumn of 2024: bike mechanic
    • 2025 -: destruction of the United States

    Kinda hard to find a jobs with a resume like that…

      I started working on bicycles at 5 years old.

      Apparently I’m qualified to do [redacted] things…

        There’s a difference between a corporation that can replace their board and the individuals on said boards.

        These guys will be stuck working conservative and right wing shit the rest of their lives, they will become the next generation of grifters.

      They’re grooming yes men who’ll owe them their careers, offer unconditional loyalty, and they’ll have 100% control over.

      I would too, but you just know that they’ll be running a department in 18months and trying to hire 42 year old professionals for less than their own wages
