I agree I think that’s why right wingers liked him so much and he later had to set the record straight and be like no…Idfwu

He always like, acquiesces his shitty beliefs for the sake of friendship which is what makes him tolerable but like. Damn this is rough lol

Okay okay he starts to get less atrocious toward the end of season 2 but dang that was tough for a bit

It is astounding that they made the character who, early on, suggests a puppy that licks him should be shot so likable

don't worry he gets worse in season 5 like the rest of the show

I feel like he's what Libertarians THINK they are when they call themselves Libertarians - but also has to be likeable and palatable enough for TV. As quotable as he might be, the character is kind of thin for sure.

I think Ron would be vehemently against everything Elon has done and stands for. But what parts got you thinking this?

Yeah, I think the writers also recognized this and reverse-Flanderized him in later seasons.
