Convicted Terrorist Samani Al Hayadi was right in his observation that Elon is just a nerd.
You get the nerd to fix your computer, but you don't ask him for dating or fashion tips, or how to run a country, or how to make friends.
Or really, how to do anything outside their limited area of expertise.
Like, unironically, push him in a locker, break his glasses, and call him a faggot.
He'll go back to making rockets like he should be, once he's suitably chastised.
I don't think you should flatter Leon Skum by calling him a nerd. Nerds are people who are genuinely interested in their hobbies. They don't see a point paying someone to play for them, because they actually like the game. Leon Skum is a poser and pseud. He lacks moral backbone, as not being a man of truth renders him untrustworthy and dishonorable.
This is the problem of our modern era we all have to deal with. There are no true elites. Our oligarchy, be it old wealth boomers or new tech rich, does not have concept of honor, noblesse oblige etc. This problem is very old, btw, but now in the era of internet it just became more visible, and more acute.
I tried imagine Elon Musk as a princeling from 16th century. Imagine a princeling boasting he is good at some card game only because he pays his servants to let him win. I think people would just think that he is weak in his head.
Deep down he must know that his status is unearned. Maybe he is not fully aware of it, but he could have this gnawing feeling that if he was born as a middle-class kid, there is no chance he would be were he is now. Maybe his gaming prowess was to prove that he can achieve something completely on his own? But then it turned out to be not true.
Yes, Elon, the people who play video games value genuine accomplishments. They shun cheats, boasters, and liars. This is because, often video games achievements are their only accomplishments, if they are not true, they have nothing. You, on the other hand, have one of the highest statuses ever imaginable, but yet you tried to take their status too. And now you try to prove that no status is ever an individual achievement. How despicable!!
