    He could have just stayed the fuck off Twitter and done occasional "Yay Rockets!" videos with Everyday Astronaut and every Lib and Bazinga on the planet would be singing his praises as the foretold saviour of mankind.

    But nope, has to fuck up his life at every point.

      I have always been fascinated by how a persons proximity to real power changes them in ways that become mandatory if you do any digging on them.

        How much real power does Musk have? He has a huge amount of raw capital, but how much of that is contingent upon mysterious investors, or weird credit schemes, subsidies, or purposefully inflated valuations of his companies? Everyone in Washington talks about him like he's some weird loser. The industries he runs aren't any kind of vital business for the American workforce. Hardly any car owners primarily drive a tesla.

          I kinda just mean capital its interesting how your relative closeness to capital even if your just wasting it grifitng on vanity projects like musk, you develop things like sociopaths gathering in the top 1% along with what I can only be described as mandatory pedophilia, and general abuse of women and men as well with our beloved she-eos
