Elon just posted approval of an AIDS denying tweet attacking Fauci for approving an HIV drug, but I think he's genuinely too stupid to understand the post was denying AIDS is real. It's still to this day wildly underestimated how stupid Elon is

Elon continues to be one of the best examples of how you don't have to be smart to be wealthy and that far too many people conflate the two - in his case especially.
He's no modern day Thomas Edison. He's a fool and a charlatan whose greatest trick is fooling other people into believing he's not.
I know! He clearly just isn't bright, at least not anymore, and so many people just don't believe their are skills beyond intelligence (like being able to gather an army of credulous Toadies).
He’s also become one of the richest people ever somewhat quickly, thinks the real world is a simulation and reportedly takes ketamine every day. Dude is quite detached from reality.
This is absolutely true, and also, if I were Fauci, I’d be leaving the country. Poor dude is going to have every covid conspiracy nut with a gun after him - with the open consent of the new administration.
probably headway to be made in laying out for people how billionaires actually spend their days. people think musk actually does engineering (lol) - idk how he really spends his time beyond naziposting, but it almost certainly isn't engineering, and it’s probably helpful to make that vivid for folks
Not to put yggy‘s shiny dome at the center of the universe but his argument for why Trump is intelligent is you have to be intelligent if you recognize methods (successful fraud/conman included) to get rich, its definitional to him. So knowing when/who (discerning?) to ass-kiss would apply.
Yeah literally any billionaire could be in that situation if they had just given Trump money and kissed his ass. When it comes to actually governing I think the breakup between the two will be bitter
Also how much of his brain is just automatically triggered by seeing likes under a tweet. He sees a big number there, there must be something for him to latch on to and "contribute"
Given his country of birth was a hotbed of AIDS denialism (on the back of some Cold War era Soviet backed misinformation campaigns) that doesn’t surprise me.

He's looking into it.
He’s no genius, but he’s not stupid. He knows what he is doing.
