I’m surprised there isn’t more of this going on. Imagine if all of these folks suddenly experienced similar visits bearing similar flaming gifts, all in the space of a day or so.
It is a shame that he didn’t happen to be at the gate of his obnoxiously large house.
We don’t need no water let the motherfucker burn.
I’d love to see his legal defense be:
I threw it at the gate because it was just a message. If I wanted to kill him I’d have _____.
Cuz like…
Realistically throwing a moltov at a (presumably) metal gate isn’t the same as attempted murder.
If I was on a jury, that’d be enough for me to say “not guilty” at least.
I wonder if he’d written a death threat in chalk on the ground, if that would be a greater or lesser crime?
What about “burn, baby, burn!”? Would that count as equal death threat to “Imma murderize you!”?
were any plumbers spotted in the neighborhood?
I said it before, ill say it again. ¯\(ツ)/¯
Oh no…. Anyways…
Aaron Swartz, among others, thought Altman was an untrustworthy sociopath. There’s a long article in the New Yorker about this. I didn’t read it, but Gruber did: https://daringfireball.net/2026/04/when_he_is_alive_and_not_after_he_is_dead
These ineffectual, half assed attempts are only going to scare the rest of them underground.
Netflix had an amazing show about that, but cancelled it like a week after season 1 premiered.

Tldw:
Billonaires think the world is ending and scamper to a bunker.
Twist is that the world isn’t ending, people fucked over by billionaires decided to stage a fake apocalypse and use AI to impersonate them and steal all their money.
And no one cares about the wealthy outside of immediate family, so no one asks questions.
I think it wasn’t just stealing the money, but immediately using it to actually help people.
What would be the motive for him to stage this event?
But his house didn’t do anything wrong!
