Well, Zuckerberh is probably unaware of how weasly he is. And he probably surrounds himself with sycophants who aren't forthcoming about it. The real question is how long he will be a celebrity billionaire before his personality ruins it.

Nothing could better show how both political parties are simply shills for billionaires.

Billionaires who favor policies that will make our posterity either serfs or non-existent.

You know how everyone ranted for years against the commies? Well, Zuck and his hucklebucks are confirming the darkest suspicions of the most moonstruck Marxist.

"Free enterprise" will become a dirty word even among conservatives at this rate. Another sterling achievement of the Clusterzuck*, like his IPO.

* I hereby bequeath to the earth the term "Clusterzuck," reserved, like a fine wine, for when and if the efforts to pass this amnesty go awry. Let's make that happen.

Zuckerberg shows a reckless disregard for the middle class on the issue of immigration and perhaps in general. He does not understand the source of his freedom. What shall be the remedy?

Perhaps if the middle class were to realize that the wealthy (the middle aspires to be) do not make a good ally, they might support a large (confiscatory, maybe 90%) marginal tax increase on income levels above say $500K/yr attached to such immigration bills.

Source of his freedom? Your understanding of the world is so simplistic.

Zuckerberg, like most other nerds, was probably slammed into the lockers, twice a day for 4 years while he was in High school. I highly doubt that he associates his life in the middle class suburban high school days with freedom. For him, it was more likely a source of daily torture.

I have a pet theory (no real evidence to back it up), that most liberal reactionaries were bullied during their teenage years in American high schools. Some of these guys might be slightly autistic/aspergerish as well which only fuels the fire.

For the record, I am slightly nerd'ish and I was also bullied in high school but I am a conservative. I don't have any hard feelings towards society. But, I always get a chuckle when I hear people idealize the American life as the ultimate life immersed in freedom.

"Move fast and break things... "
The funniest thing to me is that people think Zuckerberg did anything innovative with Facebook. He didn't. It took myspace/friendster, made it a bit faster and easier and had some clever people to make it appealing to advertisers.

He got very rich very young. His movie character got to hang out with beautiful women in that one movie. Journalists thus worship him. Which is why they take him more seriously than, say, the kid who made WinAmp (or whatever) and didn't have a movie made about him.

Sorkin made Zuckerberg look like a weasel, but it made people look at Zuckerberg. I'm sure he loved it. (Note that he appeared on SNL with his doppelganger. And he was laughing.)

I doubt that, maybe Markie played lacross, your don't have to big to play it like Football. A lot of nerds in SO Calif play Lacross or do water polo. Water polo is tough but actually better students do the sport instead of football or basketball. The nerd is bad in sport is a myth, a lot do sports like swimming and polo or Lacross.

You're projecting way too hard.

Zucko went to wealthy schools, it's not your standard school environment. He was also captain of his high school fencing team.

"like most other nerds, was probably slammed into the lockers, twice a day for 4 years while he was in High school"

That's a played out trope, not the norm.

I heard one of ads from Zuck's "conservative" arm on talk radio yesterday, during Rush's show. I don't know if it was a case of "forewarned is forearmed" or not, but it sounded ridiculous to me. The whole thrust was, "My God, we're some tuff (but compassionate and fair!) conservative sonsabitches."

Seeing how Rush pretty much compassionately dismantled Rubio in an interview on the subject maybe a week or two before, I think a lot of the people hearing the ad were similarly forearmed.

"“Move fast and break things” has been the motto at Mark Zuckerberg’s Facebook, embodying the Silicon Valley ethos of unapologetically finding new ways to solve old problems."

"Move fast and break things" is also the doctrine of the immigration "reformers": expedite ill-considered legislation and, in so doing, ruin the nation. It describes Obama care too.

Steal any:

* Drop "Gang of Eight". Should always be "Zuckerberg's Gang of Eight".

* The last time you trusted Zuckerberg, you lost your shirt.

Visual aids:

* Photoshop ball caps bearing the FB logo on Zuckerberg's Gang of Eight.

* Make an Obama poster, with Zuckerberg's face under "FWD" (a small ".us" below it).

* Poster. Zuck's face with these words on top: "I'M HIRING". On bottom: "aliens".

It's the current hot issue and gives him much attention.

Also, it promotes facebook as a pro-diversity global brand all over the world. So, Zucky could be doing this more to export facebook as a brand than to import workers for facebook.

Also, he wants to show his creds to the lib community that make up 90% of silicon valley.

'Americans for a Conservative Direction', 'Council for American Job Growth', etc., all nicely crafted names for front groups that work to conceal who is really financing it and in whose interest they are to work for. Very patriotic sounding names. There's thousands of various groups out there pushing for one thing or another. Front groups, all of them. The landscape is cluttered with front groups all designed to bamboozle and mislead people. Somebody somewhere is funding them for their own reasons.

Your also steotyping, I doubt he was slameed as you think. The bunch in Coloardo who were slammed were average in computers and so forth. Probably Zack was popular if he went to a rich prep school. The type of people that are slmamed are usually not wealthy nerd types but average Joes that are not that good at things like the two that killed several people in Colorado.

I bet that you started fights with left wing kids, conservatives usually are not nerds as much they start some of the bullying against left wingers. I see that with some conservatives in school. The only consevative nerd I knew was Gilbert Guzman which was rare for a mexican and no know pick on him.

"Move fast and break things"

That's Zee Bug's motto. Seriously? The Gods of the Copybook Headings could have handed us an enemy with a better motto. It would be better if he added, "steal what you want."

Breaking stuff has worked out well for the Yucky Zucky, but it hasn't been so great for the people whose stuff got broken. Hasn't worked out well for the people who he stole from, and it hasn't worked out very well for the greater fools after his the pump-and-dump IPO.

America is country. Maybe Zee Bug could refrain from breaking it?

I wonder what Facebook's financial statements would look like if they had very, very honest accountants.

That's in the Sorkin universe of big goyim hulking over Jews.

Most Jews go to good schools where their nerdy kind dominate much of everything.

I went to a highschool of lots of middle class Jews and there were no thugs bouncing Jews off the walls. Zuck went to a much better kind of school, so he grew up like a prince.
