    More or less agree, but the Musk persona is getting so disproportionately well known compared to other billionaires that he's gonna start redirecting a lot of people to hate him personally rather than his entire class.

      doubled edged sword. his sheer stumbling brute-force not subtle way of doing things is also tearing and setting fire to the curtain that used to conceal the true power behind liberal democracy

      so yeah you'll have plenty of ideological libs looking at musk as a problem to be solved to save capitalism. but other, less ideologically committed and politically unactivated may see him as part of the ecosystem of deny-defend-depose

      those are the people we need to pay attention to and be there to educate
