Interviews: Ask Martin Shkreli a Question
Martin Shkreli has agreed to answer your questions. Shkreli is the co-founder of the hedge fund MSMB Capital Management, the co-founder and former chief executive officer (CEO) of the biotechnology firm Retrophin, and the founder and former CEO of Turing Pharmaceuticals. Shkreli has been active on Twitter about a wide range of topics, including the 2016 presidential election. Most recently, he expressed interest in buying 4chan.
Ask him your questions here, and we'll post the full interview with Shkreli's answers in the near future.

How about you don't give the self important asshole more time in the public eye instead?
Dear Mr. Shkreli, if you got rectal cancer, would it affect your entire body?
Mr. Hu is not a ninja.
Follow-up question: Were you born that way or did you have to work at it?
Why are you encouraging this talentless, odious shit with this sort of coverage?
Better known as “Pharmabro” or let’s increase costs of old meds by 5000%.
This a new low, /. Not even offering to bail out 4chan should elevate this piece of garbage to “stuff that matters.”
My only question would be, “Why haven’t you stopped breathing my oxygen yet?”
I won't have anything to do with that guy, and shame on Slashdot for providing a platform to him.
You! Yes, you! You there, about the press the "Reply" button - think about what you're doing.
Chances are you want to ask Martin Shkreli why he's such an utterly foul piece of human excrement - of course you do, it's what we're all thinking - but what will it achieve? I'm happy to see that the users of Slashdot have already asked this question several times, so that ground has been covered.
So what can you do? My suggestion is: nothing. Don't hit Reply. Don't ask a question. Shkreli didn't get to be King of the Douchebags by having a thin skin, but if anything's going to wound him... it's nothing. No responses. No-one caring. No-one even expressing their disdain for him.
So how about it? Just close the tab, and move on. Do more for the good of humanity than Martin Shkreli ever will simply by sitting on your arse and doing nothing. It's the right thing to (not) do.
systemd is Roko's Basilisk.
Why are you giving this worthless piece of shit the time of day?
Chas - The one, the only.
THANK GOD!!!
I think a more pertinent question would be "When did you receive your diagnosis as a sociopath, and why did you choose financial scams as opposed to preying on young women between the ages of 18 and 30 and sexualy torturing them, murdering them and then taunting their relatives via anonymous letters to th Duluth News Tribune?"

Look, I agree that Martin Shkreli is an execrable worm, but I think putting a bounty on him is a little extreme.
But just for the record, how much would this bounty be? Asking for a friend.
You are welcome on my lawn.
What if all of Slashdot refused to ask this guy any serious questions?
I think we should refuse...he priced-gouged lifesaving medicines...he's not some fun trickster he's a villain pure and simple.
I think what he did should be criminal.
Let's ask him things like, "When do you think you'll finally go to jail?"
or, "Have you been examined by a mental health professional for narcissistic personality disorder?"
Thank you Dave Raggett
If this is the type of stunts you plan on pulling with your new management then It may be time to delete my account.
Why would you think we care what that waste of oxygen has to say?
Sorry, teleporters just kill you and then make a copy. A perfect, soul-less copy.
Emacs or vi, you excrement-coated human enema nozzle?
That is all.
Here is what I recommend you tell Mr. Shkreli:
"We are sorry, Mr. Shkreli, but an overwhelming number of our readers have asked us to cancel our planned question-and-answer session with you. Accordingly, we have decided not to submit any questions to you. You can read the discussion that lead to this decision here."
There's no fixing sociopaths. It is an underlying neurological condition that leads a person to have no empathy and be highly narcissistic. In general, the only thing that keeps sociopaths in line is to demonstrate to them that behaving properly is in their best interests. But unfortunately, modern finance at least temporarily rewards sociopaths, because they tend to be charismatic, make grand claims and even grander plans, and by the time anyone figures out that the sociopath was full of shit and saying whatever it took to get what they wanted, the company is already been damaged, key employees have already left (usually after a lot of bullying or worse by the sociopath).
It's largely why I feel anyone diagnoses as a sociopath should be banned from any position of authority; whether that be a manager, a police officer, judge, or politician.

(Replying O/T to post this as close to the top as possible)
To help express that Slashdot should not go forward with this interview, tag the article "cancel" until it's the top tag. Thank you and don't reply with a question for the Q&A.
Here's how you can break the cancellation to him.

The absolute asshurt in this article is hilarious. Actual questions getting modded as troll, crying and screaming and "lol kill urself!" getting modded to +5.
Crying and screaming to not give him attention, yet that is exactly what you're doing by crying and screaming about it.
