A few minutes ago in the same episode, he was whining about volunteering there. His wife had to drag him there. He is lying to impress Elon Musk. That's why they are laughing at his hypocrisy and trying to impress Elon Musk.
Apparently the episode is entirely about Elon musk being this charitable figure doing everything out of the goodness of his heart while being a supergenius on par with the show's main cast.
All the comments are just gushing over Musk and taking the entire thing uncritically.
That doesn't seem any more :cringe: than the Simpsons saying that :melon-musk: was actually a quirky alien that was saving the world so he could return to his space home. :so-true:
Still it paints him as somehow superior to the show's already hamfisted misunderstood geniuses. It paints him as both intellectually and morally superior to actual scientists and most of the comments are gushing over this being both true and epically wholesome.
I warned you
