It's still pretty clear that most people don't actually understand what he did and what effect it has and just believed the headline hot takes on it, and the jury also fell for it. Still, he brought it on himself. If he had just hid behind his lawyers and shut the gently caress up like everyone else that does exactly what he does and worse he would have gotten off much lighter.

Weezy’s new poo poo is the work of a dying elf man whose once prominent magickal powers have turned his brains into goo. It’s depressing and you all are kin to the crowd mocking Joseph Merrick. Suck my balls.

Pawn 17 posted:I thought he was using all his companies has a ponzi type scheme where he'd take money out of one to pay debts and hide losses of the other and so on? Are you saying he didn't lose a ton of money for people doing this? The first part is true in that he lied about the value of businesses/funds to get investors, but he actually was competent in investing that money and ended up making profits for all of his investors. http://fortune.com/2017/08/05/why-martin-shkreli-is-guilty-when-investors-didnt-lose/

The problem is that he's a sacrificial lamb to make it appear that people like him are accountable, when in fact the only reason he was ever in the crosshairs is because he pissed off some Senators.

It was a lot of fun hanging out on Blab with pharmabro for the brief period of time that Blab was a thing ( https://medium.com/@shaanvp/blab-is-dead-long-live-blab-d2f72449ddb8 ) They should give him a laptop in jail so he can keep streaming his new life

Tallgeese posted:You have a good rundown on this one? I'm mostly referring to the people who think he is going to jail for jacking up the price of the so-called aids medicine (which is not explicitly aids medicine) and that he prevented people who needed it from getting access to it. Look at the congressional hearing he had, it was a joke where they had no interest in hearing his side of things because he was a tremendously easy scapegoat because he likes to look like the bad guy. If he hadn't made such a spectacle of himself and just explained things the way he does if you talk to him in private instead of trying to troll everyone he would have at worst gotten a lighter sentence and at best gotten off with a slap on the wrist. He was going out of his way to be the most unlikeable defendant in history.

Dr. Gojo Shioji posted:Very much so. Every one of his investors ended up making profits, and some of them even defended him when the charges were first made. Without his amusing internet persona and high profile he probably wouldn't have been targeted for prosecution at all. I'll take the right people getting hosed over for the wrong reasons over them not getting hosed over at all all day every day. That doesn't mean I don't want the rest of them to get what they deserve too.

Yeah, lovely dudes who crave attention and don't care how they get it usually do this kind of thing. Even junkies know that it's in their best interest to be polite in court, gently caress. Weeping during sentencing after going out of his way to be the absolute maximum piece of human poo poo possible, lol. What a bitch.
