The world has gone pretty retarded since the millenum.

Gates, whatever his scholastic claims and riches, like most businesspeople-cum-media-celebrities, is flawed from every possible viewpoint. Uninspiring, insipid, waffer of a humanoid. The high priest of 80s corporate R&D theft. Media perpetuates their nonsensical ramblings. If I was an American voter (and we should preface that voting is what it is) I'd vote for the person that talks as much sense, coherently. With the candidates, it seems that's an easy observation to make.

I wonder whether before paranoia was commonly diagnosed/observed, it was just though of as an enquiring mind. Just my 2sats.

Gates appearently has some other flaws that are not talked about so much. It appears that he likes youngins too much for reasonable behavior, like Biden. We can’t talk about this aspect of our ELites, though. It will lead to huge troubles because, after all, children are important to civilization.

I've not read much psycho-analysis, but I assume it is some kind of god complex, borne out of the failure to accept mortality, and a denial of realization that all men are largely equal.

children are important to civilization.

I guess so is morality and so are ethics.

I cannot disagree with you at all on your conclusions. I wouldn’t sully my brain cells thinking about Gates’ mental processes. Just seeing him in action is enough to discourage a saint.
