Yeah. It's not like the show is pure cinema or anything, but I watch it casually every so often, watching this episode is not fun.

Yeahh. But back when we thought he was cool I would have found it cool.

It amazes me how much we all were kissing his ass at one point. Lots of stuff I can't even watch from 2010 - 2020 without him getting some kind of cameo or mention.

he was banging on about creating electric car infrastructure and talking about a backup plan for humanity in case we destroy the planet through climate change. While putting "his" money where his mouth is.

no shit people liked him back then.

It's nice to see people finally coming around, even if it is too late.

The collective society was still doing it even if you weren't

Yes well he spent billions on PR, and people love being told what to think. But he's never been able to hide his roots.

He was always crazy, I saw through his shit since he got famous. Anyone who praised him heavily was ignorant, even before the shitshow with politics.

I was just ignorant to think he would go down and not just buy the president, apparently with enough money you can.

Second the hype train came around praising him as not only a Christ-Figure of Private Enterprise, but the real life Tony Stark to boot, I knew he had to be full of shit.

Anyone perfect must be lying.
