Sam Bankman-Fried, the former crypto mogul who was convicted of defrauding investors by secretly diverting billions of dollars of their money, asked the Supreme Court on Thursday for a new trial and to throw out a court order requiring him to pay $11 billion as part of his sentence.
It’s surprising to me that folks here hate on SBF but champion Luigi.
Both were giving rich assholes what they deserved.
If SBF had stolen the rich to give to the poor rather than to himself, I’d be more inclined to like him.
I think that was what he was doing, no?
Wasn’t he a big part of the Effective Altruism movement?
Easy. SBF robbed rich fucks, and they stole from us to recoup it. Luigi didn’t leave downstream issues.
