    Hard disagree. It would be one thing if he was just off in his corner by himself being a terrible person, but he’s very much always in the limelight and has a whole cult of personality worshipping the ground he walks on. We need articles like this as a counter to all the ass-kissing going on.

      The cult of personality thing is the big part IMO. If it was just him being a piece of shit without any influence, then whatever. But he has a cult following that are influenced by him and his actions (plus Twitter seems now designed to push his thoughts). It’s important that the vast majority of people understand that Musk is an idiot and a piece of shit. It needs to be lame and gross to like him.

      He’s always in the limelight because of these “news” articles, not in spite of them. Can we not collectively decide to ignore him and let him die in irrelevance?

        No, because that is not and will never be reasonably possible. He will CREATE the news coverage if you dont throw shade
