OO

“OO”—the Olympus of the Oligarchs: Mount Olympus has evolved from a mountain into a collection of skyscrapers. Today’s tech billionaires have established their headquarters above the 400th floor, conducting meetings in conference rooms that literally sit among the clouds. Yet these modern deities eschew traditional divine attire. They navigate their empires wearing hundred-dollar t-shirts and sneakers that cost more than most vehicles. Zuckerberg in his signature hoodie, Bezos in his baseball cap—their deliberately casual appearance masks their extraordinary influence. This studied informality represents power: they govern global systems while dressed like undergraduate students.

Consider the parallels: Bezos has become a contemporary Hermes, overseeing all commerce and logistics. Zuckerberg resembles Hera, maintaining surveillance over social connections, aware of every relationship and daily routine. Musk embodies Zeus—launching spacecraft, planning Mars colonies, seemingly one step away from wielding actual thunderbolts. Their narratives echo classical mythology: garage startups transformed into global dominance. Their conflicts manifest not through celestial battles but through litigation and platform competition. A single tweet from these figures can elevate or destroy entire corporations.

Most remarkably, these individuals began as ordinary people who transcended conventional limitations. They constructed a new Olympus from technology and data, now orchestrating nearly every aspect of modern life. Each Instagram scroll or online purchase represents, in essence, an offering at their digital temples.

The ancient gods have faded into history, yet Olympus persists. Today, however, divine status is measured in market capitalization rather than mythological prowess.
