    Hey Musk, since you want me to like you so much, why did you make it abundantly clear that you are a huge fool and asshole? At this point the only value you have as a human being is that you are somebody that everybody else can laugh at.

      He outright said it. I can’t find the tweet just now, it was from quite a while back. But essentially, he said the left was mean to him so he went all in on conservatism. I think it was not so much “mean” as “willing to call him out for obvious lies and weird nonsense” like the time he called a guy who rescued children from a cave a pedophile. I also don’t think he was really as left as he claimed to begin with, he was just following what seemed to be the trend to get people to like him.

      When you get called out, you can learn from it or you can double down. He doubled down harder than anyone in history, and somehow it has yet to come back and bite him like it would most. Here’s hoping it does sooner than later.
