Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person or their instance. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on. Keep on-topic
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

But the real question is: who gets the jacket???
Haha, I was going to point out he's not wearing the leather jacket in this pic.
I don't get his obsession with it, he's always worn it, and for the tech industry, that's even more quirky.
It’s like Zuckerburg’s old white t-shirt thing or Steve Jobs with his turtleneck.
It’s an easy way to get PR as a tech bro, especially in the modern day where one of your main goals is appealing to young men who both buy your products and vote for the people who control how your products are purchased
A lot of famous people have a very simple outfit to discourage photographers.
If you look exactly the same from one day to the next, nobody can make money off taking pictures of you.
I think this is more about the personal branding
Agreed: They are such soulless uncreative homunculi they believe mundane clothing like a "white tee shirt" or "a black jacket" is a fashion statement. Now that I think about it, their sense of fashion being limited to just one single complimentary article of clothing was probably the first hint tbh.
It is a statement. The quality of the statement is a different question.
I don't think there's anything about a fashion statement, it's literally just a PR team coming up with a personalized style
And everything is about it, not only clothing but the way they talk and behave in public too. During the twitter episode we saw some real musk coming up, until the PR team took a hard grip and eventually rebranded him as racist musk which has been successful for him with the maga people
You can sometimes see also them testing waters, like when he tweeted somewhat recently about UBI to see if there's any pull left for left leaning people
"Parker, I can't pay you for these photos! Spiderman is wearing the same thing in each one!"
FTFY
I was informed awhile back that my chronic dehumanization of Zuckerberg was technically tied to antisemitic tropes awhile back so I’ve been trying to avoid doing that lol but I appreciate the fix!
My thinking is if there’s anyone we know who loves antisemitism, it’s definitely gonna be the guy who made Facebook.
It's the humanization of Zuckerberg we need to worry about!
It’s jackets. A massive collection.
