Who fucking cares. Stop talking about musk and he will likely go away
Hell no. Musk is, extremely publicly, disproving every myth about billionaires. He's telling you what he is, he's showing you what he is. And this is "best businessman, super genius, futurist poster boy for billionaires Musk"
You don't have to like the situation or the coverage, and you certainly don't have to like him.
But you need to watch. We all need to watch. We need to sear this in, so next time someone buys the legend crafted by a billionaire.
When people praise Musk or talk about trickle down economics, you need to be honestly shocked. You need to be able to rattle off the stupid and evil decisions that describe his life, and be able to explain how he's never built a company or designed anything, how the only useful contribution he's made to anything is hyping things so far he's being sued for outright fraud
Give him the attention - a lot of programmers have long known he's a poser, but most of us didn't make a big deal about it because he was getting people excited for important technology. It was for the common good.
And now, watching him is the common good - let him bask in infamy all he likes, this protracted midlife crisis is possibly the most philanthropic thing he's ever done
Yeah this is why I disagree with "you're just giving him free clicks and making him more popular". He's constantly disproving every positive association with billionaires.
Did you not read my post?
Let him have his infamy, he's using it to disprove every positive association with billionaires.
Give him all the clicks, all the views, pay attention - he's the real time greatest argument there will ever be for not having another Elon Musk. Pay attention, break it down for your dad, spread the word to your friends - it's very important that as a species, we learn this lesson ASAP. Next time, this lesson will cost a great many lives
Yeah, he gets what he wants, but I have literally, never for a moment, cared what some elongated muskrat wants
You might've misread, I'm in complete agreement with you. It's the people who think that it's just helping Musk that I disagree with.
Ah... you're right, rereading that I totally got that jumbled up in my head, sorry
I might be a little touchy on the topic...I have family members who are smart and educated, but even now think Musk is some kind of genius, maybe with a personality disorder excused by his genius. Telling them about him doesn't help, but letting him show them his true colors surely will (eventually)
No worries! My phrasing didn't help things.
