Which proves my point. This cult on top of someone that simply convinced people (they knew from their connections) being considered a genius is absurd.
Depends on what we, as a society, want to value. Do we want to value people with connections and luck, or people that work for their achievements?
Of course it's not a boolean, it's a spectrum. But the point remains: valuing lucky rich people with connections as geniuses because they are lucky, rich and connected is nonsensical to me
