To be fair, he's commanding a ton of influence among policy makers, so it's pretty critical to not completely ignore the bullshit he's up to.
It’s one of those things where, while I’m sick of hearing about his bullshit, I need to know if he does something that directly affects me. E.g. if he started doing a similar thing in my country as the stuff he’s trying with Britain at the moment then I’d write to a couple of representatives to let them know they’ll lose mine and many other votes if they side with the dopey billionaire muppet.
Also because people like Musk are further empowered when no one is looking. I'm as tired of hearing about him as anyone but will keep reading until he's in prison, dead, or at least not the de facto president of the united states.
Yeah but are you not considering the thousands of other ideologues that work in the shadows everyday? Putting one on blast doesn't solve anything. People have yet to grasp that the public forum can't solve a multitude of problems all at once. If you put something in the public forum you should expect nothing to happen unless there is a system already in place to deal with it. What we should spend time talking about is solutions that can cascade into other solutions. Systems that can make other systems. We need to categorize our problems and put them in a queue to be reconciled. What we have now is people just wildly jumping from one problem to the next as if identifying that problem was the most important thing and solving it is secondary.
It's like when you watch Jon Oliver. It's a good show but at the end of the episode all I have is another insurmountable problem I now recognize and I file that away with every other insurmountable problem Jon has shed light on.
