I speculated a short while back that with Musk’s true dream of immortality seeming less plausible every year, he has turned his sights on being remembered by history.
I think I was right, and some sort of drug fueled edgelord logic has led him to conclude that fear is strong and universal, and being a cacking villain gets your name to “stick” with people the most.
Or his ridiculous luck has given him the world’s worst case of Main Character syndrome, and the game play that amuses his fried brain involves griefing the NPCs.
He was Time’s person of the year too. Funny that you got a downvote for speaking this but it’s so important to remember.
All of this is correct, but people get really pissed at these facts because we live in a demented cartoon world where the majority of people run on reactions and feelings, so if they read anything other than emotional condemnations they lose their shit. Which is exactly why we have another set of Hitlers gaining power without resistance. Because you idiots out there can’t get it through your thick skulls that people like Hitler and the Nazis were PEOPLE LIKE YOU AND ME. Not monsters, not inhuman creatures, but idiots who thought they were doing the right thing because they let reactions and feelings guide them.

I’d say most people understood the historical context but rightly concluded that feeding Trump’s ego isn’t the smartest play. And sticking to traditions and conventions in the face of the fascist threat is clearly not working.
damn, you got deep on that but generally, yeah that’s the root of the problem and it runs on both sides….
influential often has a positive connotation so i think that confused people
