what i keep hearing it called is "debate bro" culture. a few of the characteristics that really concern me are: 1) they either don't realize or they refuse to admit what they don't know. 2) they try to convince everyone that what matters is how you say something. they believe the aesthetics of how you say something should matter more than the content. 3) depth and nuance is bad, someone may be trying to confuse you. 4) context removal. they want to pretend that wider context doesn't matter. 5) every random persons thoughts on an issue should hold the same weight as even an expert in every topic. i definitely see elon engage in this constantly, but its absolutely not limited to him. its wild how wide this has spread.
