Sorry but Elon is probably in the top millionth of a percentile in brainpower alone. He will likely single-handedly bring humanity out of the dark ages and into the interstellar space. Articles like this are just trying to be relevant by glomming onto Elon’s name and we shouldn’t give them our attention.
As such, I have flagged this article and will flag any articles that paint Elon in a bad light. Go have your fun with someone else who isn’t saving humanity. Once you all learn to behave yourselves I will remove the flag.

- almost_usual 3y agoYou’re right, I haven’t brushed up on the guidelines and my comment was pithy. I did notice however there are no official guidelines for flagging. I will reach out to HN to see if they can update this. I did find one relevant comment by dang. > The purpose of flagging is to indicate that a story does not belong on HN. Frivolous flagging—e.g. flagging a story that's clearly on-topic by the site guidelines just because one personally dislikes it—eventually gets an account's flagging privileges taken away. But there's a new 'hide' link for people to click if they'd just like not to see a story. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12173836 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12173836
