The flood of encomiums and morality tales about Elon's turn in Washington cldn't be more predictable, vapid & sickening.

yeah this is me as well I think. it's not that the "look at the hypocrisies of liberal democracy" stuff was like, *wrong*, it was frequently right on the merits, it's just that there was a real lack of introspection into what the likely alternative to "the hypocrisies of liberal democracy" was!

This is such a good example of "turn every page" journalism - nothing less fun/glam than clicking through every footnote. And it's roughly 10,000x more newsy than the thumbsucker RFK profiles reported with big travel budgets.
