Yeah so somebody grew up in a racist household that prioritized Protestant ideals about work and success. And then that person moved to Silicon Valley with Daddy's money and worked there during its bommiest years. Then went on to pump money into electric cars and rockets.

This all came to a screeching halt during Covid when all of a sudden, he had to not prioritize profits and success but rather the health and safety of his employees and others.

This sent him down a rabbit hole on Twitter where suddenly he felt accepted by all the Trump crowd. Now he's stuck there and slides further right each day.

This guy is now the wealthiest person on the planet.

Fuck Elon.
