"You're going to go through life thinking that girls don’t like you because you’re a nerd. And I want you to know, from the bottom of my heart, that that won’t be true.

"It’ll be because you’re an asshole."

Dude just decided to dump the camouflage and be himself. It's all the rage among billionaires these days.

They seem to have collectively decided being pleasant is unnecessary, and it would be easier in the long run to just forcibly take over the planet and not have to worry about what people think of you because you can just toss them jn a gulag or whatever else your feel like. The world is their oyster I suppose!
