Martin Shkreli Just Offered Kanye West $10 Million To Not Release New Album - Polidicks

Is this guy just trying to get as many people pissed off at him as he can or something?

[QUOTE=Cock Boner;49727831]a third of your regular salary is a pretty big fucking deal what are you even talking about[/QUOTE] Pretty sure he was saying $10,000,000 is nothing to Kanye and he'd probably be better off [b]not[/b] taking this deal and would earn more in the long run.

[QUOTE=Cock Boner;49727831]a third of your regular salary is a pretty big fucking deal what are you even talking about[/QUOTE] No, a third of a $40,000 a year salary is a pretty big fucking deal. A third of millions upon millions really is not because at some point you're able to afford literally anything and the build up of more money beyond that point is useless.

Even though I am not a fan at all of him or Kim, he is probably also investing money into ideas/projects that pushes his net worth far beyond what any website can estimate.

I think he's just trying to play the bad guy cause he's rich and just wants to fuck with people. In interviews he seems like a pretty normal dude.

" wow they seem like p. cool guys tbh, i wouldn't mind having a cold one with them, i mean if i was the type to desecrate my body with sinful poison of Western dogs, praise be to Allah"

Bernie basically told him to fuck off with his money as well I hope Kanye does the same

Unpopular opinion time this guy is fucking funny

[QUOTE=God of Ashes;49727085]Man fuck this guy. Kanye definitely won't take it but just the nerve of him[/QUOTE] America seems to love assholes that they theorize have a heart of gold. Donald Trump, Martin Skreli, etc.

But like, on a day-to-day basis, I could probably chill with ISIS!" It's basically the teenage version of the idiots who elected George Bush because they "could have a beer with him". It never ceases to amaze me how many people fall for some basic PR bullshitting.

Accept the money Release album anyway Donate money to some charity related to HIV Reverse-Shkreli him

i think kanye should take the money just because that's 10 million dollars that shkreli doesn't have anymore

[QUOTE=Rangergxi;49729460]America seems to love assholes that they theorize have a heart of gold. Donald Trump, Martin Skreli, etc.[/QUOTE] What has he actually done wrong? Serious question

[QUOTE=phygon;49729499]What has he actually done wrong? Serious question[/QUOTE] Well he promised to lower the price of the drug again and then didn't, also there's the fraud he's been accused of. But in general it's just that he is an arsehole. He gets his kicks on making people upset which is just a cunty way to live

Which are the reason that other similar drugs cost so much in the first place. He's only scamming big corporations, and even then he's barely touching those big company's bottom lines.

paying 10 million to look like not-a-villain because kanye is worse than hitler. Nice try shrek

[QUOTE=RichyZ;49729490]shrekels is just doing this shit to rob insurance companies and be a goofy asshole[/QUOTE] He's so cool dude, I wish he was my dad!!!! ^what you sound like

[QUOTE=pdp;49729646]He's so cool dude, I wish he was my dad!!!! ^what you sound like[/QUOTE] "and I will now make an ad-hominem attack and call him a poopy butt face, that'll show him"

If someone like Drake was acting like this, people wouldn't hesitate in shitting on him about it. Why is it different here? He chose to put himself in the limelight with his dogshit personality, that's what he gets

Pretty sad and pathetic) *deadmau5 is the same way in his streams with people asking "duuhhh how I get famous" I hope this guy pisses everyone off so much that some actual change happens for once. I'm getting sick of how weak and slow our political system is, and honestly, I hope it gets fucking exploited until it breaks. Thank you Mista S.

I wish all the vitrolic bullshit was directed at big Pharma, and not Shrekli. He's a weasel and likely a bad person, but he's not the problem. Big Pharma is the problem and no one cares anymore because "Shrekli's such a cunt! LOLOLOL"

please remember that before you think he's "funny" the disease that the drug he raised the price of treated can kill it's entirely possible people are going to die because of what he did if they aren't wealthy enough to fund the drug and he's still acting all smug about it

Big Pharma is the problem and no one cares anymore because "Shrekli's such a cunt! LOLOLOL"[/QUOTE] why not both? Shkreli is the embodiment of the stereotypical rich asshole. He even tries to make it so because he has the sanity of an escaped mental asylum patient. He's part of the problem and a good role model for the problem so a lot of people are using this guy as a way to get the message across that this practice is absolute garbage

[QUOTE=phygon;49729829]He gives away the drug for free if you can't afford it, the only people he's robbing are insurance companies (and fuck those guys), nobody gets hurt[/QUOTE] is there any evidence of the drug being provided to those without insurance? I'm only asking because he's lied about stuff relating to it before

People should just stop giving him the attention he's so obviously desperate for

[QUOTE=phygon;49729714]There's a difference between someone being a rude cunt online and someone being a legitimately bad person, and people seem to have bought into the media's portrayal of him as a legitimately bad person.[/QUOTE] if your idea of fun is being a shit and upsetting people while you're in court over fraud allegations, there's a good chance you are a bad person. Like, I agree with Humanabyss, the spotlight should be on the pharmaceutical industry, but don't get it twisted that he's very much a part of that system. He's not the main problem, but that doesn't make him any less of a bad person [editline]13th February 2016[/editline] [QUOTE=pdp;49729724]This guy is just the scapegoat of the month for people to rage at/seem coolly disconnected from any issues about I personally love how much shit he starts, but not because I think he's gonna cut me a check or let me join his sekrit rich ppl club or something (join any of his streams and watch the chat explode, asking for money making advice that he will NEVER respond to*.

[QUOTE=Electrocuter;49728167]Is this guy just trying to get as many people pissed off at him as he can or something?[/QUOTE] Seems obvious by now that he's playing a villain for some purpose. Or just for kicks, possibly.

[QUOTE=TG2;49729864]People should just stop giving him the attention he's so obviously desperate for[/QUOTE] This too, but the sad reality of our world is that power is attractive. Shkreli has lots.
