"Was"? We're still talking about him. Love him or hate him, if he's in the headlines he's getting what he wants.

Talking about him is very different than blindly believing he's some business god genius. He lost the mystique of being a super smart visionary and let us all see that he is really just a baffoon who lucked out with dad's money. Twitter is like watching a 5 year old deciding if he likes his toys or not

Yes, it was. Myth by definition implies a scenario in which everyone who knows you loves you. It maybe impossible to reach that milestone but it should be no less than 75% likeability. Musk likeability is now well below 50%, it's way less than Biden's , on par with Trump's A social movement is only on the rise as long as the number of believers is greater than the number of skeptics, as soon as there is a reversal the downward spiral begins.

    Total likeability is the only data that matters Urban vs. non-urban or the location of the believers vs. haters, all that is only a concern of people who are entrusted by the parties leadership to engage in massive operations of gerrymandering.
