I get this, but to be honest he said this when he was in college, I don't put much weight on it. You're telling me that you never said anything stupid in college?

The issue is less when he made the statement and more that nothing he or the organizations he manages do or say makes one think that he still doesn't believe the thrust of the statement is still true.

I sure have, and through my life experience I have learned many lessons that made me change my mind about this stupid stuff I said.

What lessons could zuck have learned, when he's been incredibly successful since these college days? The guy has become one of the richest and most powerful people on the planet _because_ of disregarding trust, and continues to operate the same way, I guess it's not impossible he fundamentally changed but I don't see a reason to think he did

It might show his true character which is something that generally doesn’t too much change with time

Or it might just have been a dumb thing a young person said

well the premise didn't change, they still trust him, so what would mature zuck say?
