How long are we going to deal with everyone using Elon as a stand-in for "super entrepreneur brain genius" in everyday conversation? (hexbear.net)

I'm so sick of hearing about this shit. Talk about space? Oh, I think we'll get to Mars because of brain genius Elon musk. Climate change? We need more entrepreneurs like brain genius Elon musk. Aspirations? Brain genius Elon musk. The world would be a lot better if we were all just a little more like brain genius Elon musk!

I already had to deal with fucking Steve Jobbs worship for decades. At least he had a turtleneck and glasses that made him look like a serial killer.

I can only explain the truth so many fucking times meow-cactus .

YES, I will derail every conversation in which he is mentioned! No, I will not hold my tongue to maintain peace! I will make sankara-shining and mao-wave proud!

He's now openly supporting Trump, so I think libs are going to turn on him for good because of their hatred of Orange Man Cheeto Drumpf. They can pretty much brush everything else under the rug because ”he's done so much good” or whatever, but this'll be a step too far. You could point out that sharing antisemitic conspiracy theories and transphobia is equally bad, but libs aren't exactly morally consistent.

Oh yeah, and they'll probably come up with some nonsense theory about how the Muskrat is Russia's pawn too.
