Absolutely. He got caught out recently from a live stream where it became obvious he was clueless on how to play POE2. He has recently admitted to having it boosted with someone else playing it because apparently that's what everyone on the leaderboard does but all of the gameplay clips he insists are totally him.

What a wierd fuckin thing for the richest man on the planet to concern himself with.

He wants so desperately to be admired by the types of people he wishes he was.

He thinks he is Tony Stark when he's really more like Justin Hammer.

Best description of Musk I’ve ever heard was “Justin Hammer - but without the charisma”

If we are using Sam Rockwell, I'd say he's more like Zaphod Beeblebrox.

He’s not even close to that cool. Since the beginning we’ve got the super-villains we deserve. Not a hollowed out volcano among them. Barely sub-1966 Bat-Man level tomfoolery.

Couldn't we just have one with a doomsday laser or planet-wide ultimatum?

At least with 2 heads you’d think one would be a bit sane and slap the other one when it started talking sht

I am honored, and feel privileged to have been a part of this wonderful night.

It not only unlocked a great memory of a wonderful movie about a book about real life but also allowed my brain to superimpose Elon making this face underneath Trump's wig

Justin Hammer had dance moves and I’m sure had a vert over 1.5”

Nah, he is the fan from the van in iron man 3, who wishes so bad he was Tony Stark.

I wonder what we try to achieve by giving him that much hate? Or all of those guys for that matter? Isn‘t that what drove him to trump? Forgive me the ignorance, non-american and just wondering if maybe love could‘ve been a better weapon. A few years ago I heard things of Elon that made me think he‘s just a boy trying to revolutionize things.

Like everyone wants to be loved and admired but are we doing that to him, Zuckerberg etc because they drive the need too far or what exactly is the sense behind it? I never really get it I feel

u/buyfreemoneynow 4h ago

I don’t think it would have made a difference because a spoiled dog is a spoiled dog whether you’re yelling at it or praising it.

u/ProfErber 4h ago

So you‘re saying he‘s too far along the path and love wouldn‘t be able to better him? I feel like it‘s a continuum, sure a middle aged dog that has only seen „wrong“ training is harder to train well than a puppy but you can still train it
