It's amusing to see the (perceived) David beat the (perceived) Goliath. It's not neccesarily fair, or nice, but punching (perceiv-ably?) up is funny.

I find the concept that my ideas are not flawed (and how dare anyone suggest they are) and success is a matter of connections and existing wealth more self pleasing.

You see "people succeeding too much", i see "amazon workers peeing in bottles", which I suspect is a fundamental difference between Europe and the States (in point of view, i'm not claiming this is a black and white issue).

"Nudge techniques" should be banned outright.

Is such a short warranty common in the states?

As a robot with no feelings or worries, I do not see how you people just refuse to wait until ((friendlyDate.tomorrow))

Yeah, snarky but whatevs. The assurance of control helps, even if it’s just checking your phone is still working while expecting a call.
