Meh. That all read as incredibly fallacious and dishonest. Are we hero worshiping him? I’m not. Does recognizing him as a person of the year hero worship him? Don’t think so. Hitler was times person of the year. It has to do with influence, good or bad…

Does falling under the sway of someone necessarily mean you accept their “self-aggrandizing world view and all the collateral it produces”…. No, it does not.

Does saying someone reminds you of your friends mom make you a misogynist… no.

Is it possible to be self-interested AND care about the public good. Yes!

This is blasphemy against the Holy Saint Musk. I hope they burn in hell.
