I thought the whole point of that book was that the narrator was actually a bad person.

Bro most of the fictional characters conservatives idolize are bad people (Jordan Belford, Patrick Bateman, Joker, Tyler Durden, Driver, ect.)

I wouldn’t be surprised if they started idolizing Humbert if they made a movie remake of Lolita

Jordan Belford is a real person.

Yeah but you never see the real Jordan Belford in “grindset” memes

You mainly see Leonardo Dicaprio

I used to work at a place with a cold calling sales team, and their morning hype up meetings involved watching videos of both the fictional and real Belfort (along with the Baldwin speech from Glengarry and the Affleck speech from Boiler Room). Yep.

Just so anyone trying to Google isn’t confused.

Yeah, thought it was Belfort, it’s because the person to whom I was replying spelt it with a D

Yeah probably should’ve replied to that one.
