People missing the really obvious answer: Musk pays people to worship post about him, and can take direct control of those accounts when he wants (IE to defend himself in person on call).

I think it’s important because for the average stream watcher, it’s destroying the capitalist myth that wealthy people are somehow really smart and competent and earned their wealth. Musk is a trainwreck of a human who fell upwards. The more people who know that, the more willing they are to overthrow capitalist paradigms.
