How anyone thinks this guy has the time to be chief engineer at SpaceX when all he does is shitpost on twitter all day is the real grift.

I'm a big proponent of Musk corps, solely because of the team within them and entirely despite of Elon (though he did serve a purpose); but the former channer in me also likes seeing how sage level trolling has not only made him immensely wealthy but also functions as a sort of psyop to gauge to how effective social media really is/remains in the collective psyche.

It's like the more advanced version of, 'stick your smartphone in the microwave for full charge' kind of thing: perverse and diabolical in a way but also necessary to put a finger on the pulse of the collective IQ of the modern internet sort of thing.
