There's a very Fedora-tier energy to the "We just exist to reproduce" statement. The sort of shit you'd say jokingly while drinking coffee as a sophomore college kid, after barely squeaking by on your Bio 301 final. Coming from a fucking ghoul like this when being asked about his best Woody Allen impersonation, you have to marvel at the degree to which people will just ingest each others bullshit.

Even then, the only reason this is news is because Elon Musk is recognized as a kind-of Capitalist Royalty. And his father having a "secret kid" alludes to some kind of fantastic dynastic struggle between heirs to the throne. Nevermind that we're not in 12th century Feudal France, trying to find the Child Who Will Lead Us in our next Crusade against the Moors. This relationship is deeply sick, but it is only considered newsworthy because of the implication of Palace Intrigue that has nothing to do with how businesses work.

Americans would be so much happier if they had a Royal Family to gawk over, scandals and all.
