To think that not so long ago, this authoritarian, grifting man-child was hailed as the real-life Tony Stark. If the mask slips any further, even his remaining fanboys are going to find it difficult to defend him.
I don't think he has near as many fanboys as the musk circlejerkers on reddit always made it out to seem. I barely ever see anyone genuinely fanboy him anymore, at most many are neutral to him while still thinking he's an idiot.
I think reddit (and social media in general) just has a habit of giving megaphones to "the other side", no matter how small it actually is, so they can have someone to appear to argue against so it doesn't look like they're yelling at a wall.
Not enough people point out he has bot farms at this disposal.
Old news, predates Twitter. His popularity is wildly over estimated. It's inflated. It's fake. Always was meme.
I love the smell of painful truth in the morning.
I always assumed this was the case. One of the richest men in the world with an ego this fragile would definitely have his own propaganda campaign.
Interesting that by killing twitter and with Reddit dying off, he’s robbing himself of the ability to spin anything that’s said about him.
It feels like we’re minutes away from most of the content on the internet being generated by AI and most of it being consumed by bots.
I'm a big fan of SpaceX. I think they are doing amazing things that will make space allot more accessible. That being said he's definitely a douche.
I mean, he’s not the one designing the rockets, building the pads, etc. so I feel the same way. Elon is just “the money guy”
SpaceX is successful because he lets Gwynne Shotwell take charge and run the company while he soaks up the praise. And even then, SpaceX has big problems. When Starship destroyed its launchpad (rumored to be due to Musk's interference, big surprise), it sent debris everywhere, particulate matter across a wildlife preserve and started a brush fire there. It also reached a nearby town. It was an environmental disaster and it's barely been discussed.
The FAA did say they need to address it for future launches. I think a small fire is an acceptable cost for progress. Starship could do for space what the caravel did for the oceans.
He is kinda like that though, but more like Tony from the beginning of the first movie.
“What if?” Tony where he goes from a decent guy to piece of shit instead of the other way around.
Musk was never a decent guy.
He had the perception of a decent guy.
I remember back in like 2018 and 2019 I pegged him as either Stark, early on, or Lex Luthor. Either way, he was an asshole, with the only concept of philanthropy being what he could gain from it.
Turns out I gave him way too much credit in both cases, he isn't even close to their intellects.
They will find some excuse.
