Okay, everyone, I have prepared all morning, and am now ready to dig into this dumpster fire filled with shit https://www.elle.com/life-love/a35021224/martin-shkreli-christie-smythe-pharma-bro-journalist/
"Who is Martin Shkreli?" some of you may ask. and the answer is that he is an asshole who hiked up the price of a life-saving AIDS drug by 5,000 percent and was later found guilty of fraud and sentenced to prison. At his trial, he looked like this, which says everything:
wait, hang on, i need to get an alcoholic drink
this entire paragraph gave me emotional whiplash. I was like, "30 BUCKS ON VENDING MACHINE SNACKS FOR THIS MAN?? A HAMBURGER TOO? GIRL, WHAT??????????? Her husband deserves a vacation"
the one sympathetic person in this entire article, who is not even directly quoted, has finally peaced the fuck out
"99% of what he says is completely delusional, but i love the 1% that isn't
"
incredible, just incredible

incredible, just incredible
"PUBLISHING DID NOT WANT MY ROMANTIC TALE OF FALLING IN LOVE WITH A CONFIDENCE ARTIST WHO PRICE GOUGED LIFESAVING MEDICATION 


"




S H O C K as the same asshole who defended raising the prices of the EpiPen could be such a stone-cold asshole. WHO COULD HAVE FORESEEN
AND THAT'S THE END. In light of this article, I feel like we should revisit my favorite jury stories of all time, the Martin Shkreli jury response! Truly, these are the best. https://harpers.org/archive/2017/09/public-enemy/
