    Add to that radicalization pipeline bit the fact that obscene wealth like what Notch came into tends to be extremely socially isolating and directly causes people to lose touch with reality. Not to be like “oh the poor billionaires,” but having that kind of money literally causes mental illness. For their own good, no one should be allowed to have that kind of money.

      I think there is a ‘not’ too much - or do I read it wrong?

        Yeah I missed that one. When I was writing it I changed my wording from “they should not be allowed,” to “no one should be allowed,” and missed a word. Thanks.
