Unrelated- but I think Elon is going the way of Trump and Kanye to being cancelled or his businesses being doomed. All the goodwill he had as the underdog at Tesla, he's throwing away with his "I'm better than you, I'm here to save you, Nothing I say will hurt me cos I'm invincible and people love me" complex.

- itbeho 4y agoMy first take was to agree with you. But after a bit of thought I'm not so sure. I've been talking to friends and neighbors, and there is a lot of anger building of late about [inflation, crime, government handling of Covid, media aligned with government] that makes me think more people will be supporting alternate voices because the entrenched power is so disliked. Like literally any alternate voice will stand out, even with stumbles and flaws.
- gammarator 4y agoI don’t doubt those feelings are sincere. But I will note that there is already an alternative media ecosystem dedicated to amplifying and enhancing exactly those issues. For example: someone will be a lot more concerned about crime if they’re getting steady messaging reinforcing the message that crime is out of control.
- dementiapatent 4y agoDisagree, there are so many people who don't care about the media outrage machine that went from Trump to Musk and now to Kanye. It's all very political.
