The people that pulled their money think otherwise. You see, you can say anything you want and the people that pull your strings can react however they want. No?

Ken Fisher is free to make whatever jokes he wants as are his customers free to take their money elsewhere.
Free country, but the string pullers, should not be bending over backwards to keep PC's happy, cause sooner or later they'll turn on them over nothing aswell.
PC's hate Musk cause of his twitter melt down, all the good things he does, wiped out in there dumb minds cause he put something rude on twitter.
Grow up people, your all acting like snowflake 12year olds!!
PC's are taking away everything fun, just so they sound like there nice, met loads, it's an act, they are not nice people they just use PC as a way to attack normal people
The world, will end with a wimper, not a bang

There's this pervasive idea that the opposite of PC culture is being a dick.
The simplest rule to live by is don't be a dick, and especially don't be a dick on anything with your name attached to it, and REALLY run what you say in public through a PR person when you manage billions.
Non-PC is not being a dick for the sake of it. It's not saying something highly offensive and not expecting repercussions. The first amendment guarantees your right to say what you want, but not your right to be free from the consequences of that action. The opposite of being offended at every minor transgression of polite conversation is not to be deliberately offensive.
If you choose to say something crude like he did, you're going to face consequences. The idea that we should look the other way when someone in a position of power in a company talks about having sex with his employees because we aren't "woke" is a dumb way to think. There is nothing "fun" in what he said. He was offensive. I'd probably pull my money too. The quickest way to get someone to change is hit them in their pocket book.

I wouldn't. I guess I'm a dinosaur, but from where I sit, he can say whatever he wants as long as he's getting me the best return possible on my money and he's not breaking any laws. I don't know (and don't really care) how he measures up in the industry, but if I had $50M to park somewhere, you can bet its going to the top performer. He can come to work in a thong covered in body paint playing a tuba for all I'd care.
But thats just me.

The same has been true for the last 10-15 years for Buffett and almost all other formerly great money managers.

No, Dick is the word PC people use to word shame normals into being like them, 99% of the time, people are only dicks by there extreme sensible sensitivity's and living on a different planet to the rest of us, not in real terms, that normal people would even think once about let alone twice.
The more sensitive we make everyone the easier they are to offend, how long before nobody is allowed to talk ( my mates PC kid won't speak to anyone incase she offends them LOL, it's started )
And it's not illegal to have sex with your employees and he didn't say that he does / has.
Obviously your a PC, or Wrong as I like to call it, Politically Correct so you have to think X Y and Z are correct, despite X Y and Z being Wrong!!
