There's no one left to replace him. He's Chairman of a hypothetical Board now. He answers to no one.
IMO the cult collapses before he is replaced. He may be implementing that escape plan many have suspected him of having.
Time to implement Bluebird Tech soon. LOL!
It depends on how the whales react. Slappy still has a lot more cash he can extract from the likes of Duggan if they keep on, and I just don't see him as the type to cut and run when he thinks there is more money to be had. I think he's pathologically incapable of walking away when there is even still one sucker on the line. Laffy was the same way, I think.
So don't count him out yet. The followers left are largely comprised of
the most brainwashed,
the most easily led,
the most emotionally tied to the tech for whatever reason. The cult almost died many times. This is a boxing match. Our side just scored a massive body blow followed by a tight uppercut, but the opponent is still on his feet.
I'm elated today, but don't let this emotional high make you think Slappy's going to hit the canvas this year. I'm betting he won't.
When it comes to the cult, always keep this song in mind:
