I sincerely wish I could understand Elon’s fanboys. He might be a good businessman but people treat him like he is smarter than both Tesla and Isaac Newton combined. He is nothing more than a more arrogant and autistic version of Steve Jobs. At least Jobs was smart enough to hide how much of a piece of shit he was.

All the conspiracies about billionaires like Rockefeller, the Rothschilds and the Ford Foundation somehow don’t include Elon, despite him being the richest transhumanist on Earth.
 
The Farms have fallen. Billions must sneed.

Elon probably enjoyed games when he was younger and has been desperately trying to make himself be a loved figure in nerdy cultures. For some reason, he could've been normal and said he found video games fun since I genuinely think he at least likes them on some level (Path of Exile isn't even that popular of a game). However, Elon has a massive ego and bought his own hype as the real life Iron Man and wanted to insist he's the best gamer ever.
His early career was actually in video game / computer development.

I find Musk to be a very unique cow because I don't think I've ever seen a public figure be so obsessed with being seen as unironically "cool" and "hip".

The thread has no doubt covered everything cringe about him, but as thread tax I'll bring up his complete lack of creativity and dependence on movies for all his product names post-Tesla (not that Tesla was his product either):

"Starship", "Optimus", "Cybertruck", "Werobot", "Robotaxi", "Hyperloop", "Starlink".

All the names give off the vibe of "hey remember that thing from that movie, I'm making it real. Please love me"

Rather than looking at problems that need solutions, he obviously looks to movies for inspiration on his products, as if he's only concerned with recreating things from the movies that people recognize. I think rather than say, solving world hunger in a realistic way (we know this because he asked for a solution, was presented with one and just ignored it), Musk would prefer to be the "inventor" of the "replicator from Start Trek", solely because people know what a replicator is and that would make him him look cool.
You can also tell this by the number of times he's said "it'll be just like Skynet/Blade Runner/Matrix/other 80s/90s movie thing".
It's just hard to fathom a 50 year old, let alone a 50 yo billionaire, being so pathetic and desperate for attention.


Also I'm surprised the board of Tesla let him get away with basing the names of the cars on "S3XY". Not even on the basis of it being inappropriate but just for how embarrassing it is for a man in his 40s to think this is in any way funny or cool.

How could you write all of that and you don’t mention that he got his own Government Organization named after the silly Doge meme of yesteryear? Also a “hilarious” part of Teslas they come with a prank fart sound effect, you can press a button and make it sound like someone farted LMAO! They’re the luxury cars for 6 year olds.

But seriously though while yes it can be obnoxiously cringe how Elon displays himself & markets that I don’t think it’s unique to him more so a deliberate choice to emulate how the Silicon Valley Giants would be quirky. Google was the silliest company, they had regular April Fools jokes and one of my earliest computer memories was that Google translate had an English to Elmer Fudd mode.

@Ferynon compared him to Steve Jobs and it’s very apt. Jobs had his whimsical quirks too and Macintosh fanboys revered it. Jobs was a part time talk show host he made MacWorld Keynotes silly with jokes and all the nerds lost their shit when Jobs would wrap up the presentation with “And one more thing…” presenting a new shiny overpriced laptop or some other now antique hardware. The original Mac OS X was very goofy with fancy animation effects when you minimized a window into the dock and an app was making your computer stall your mouse would turn into a beach ball.

Without a doubt Elon looks up to Jobs and Tesla more or less is how Jobs would have largely done an EV company. Steve Jobs would have loved how Teslas remove almost all physical interior buttons, which is awful design as users shouldn’t be fucking with tablet screens while driving.

I think the issue is that Elon is like, a copy of someone trying to emulate what they think quirky is. The forced quirkiness is irritating and unnatural, but it at least feels like those people know what quirky kinda looks like, while Musk is...well, what you'd expect a guy in his 50's trying to appeal to the quirky kids is. Despite seemingly being terminally online, he's always either behind the times with his references or just really dialed into a specific point in internet history that he won't move on from. I believe he's genuinely a pretty nerdy dude, but at the same time, he also has strong "fake nerd" energy. The only way I can really think to describe it is he acts like a fake gamer girl from the early 2010's.
 

As this video shows, Elon is a mommys boy at it's finest. He always urges to be pampered by the adults, as he's so speshul and smart.
He wants the special treatment solely for existing.
Even with autism, his extreme male brain is wired just like a female one.
The results are as destructive as they can get.

I mean, MEN are human doings and not human beings. Elon never does for doings sake, he does with the goal to fulfill the percieved image others might have of him.

However, while being an outsider, he's still craving female validation and mother replacement like a bayduh, as seen in his interactions with his ex wife.

Elong never learned to be a grown up MAN, he skipped the socialising part on that.
Getting along with other Guys, taking and holding a position in the latter, makes a boy grow up into a MAN who can act as a responsible father.
You know, when around women in the workplace or free time, MEN need to go their own ways and socialise with other MEN, in a way only MEN can do.
Like the femoids having their own secret language to form bonds with each other, guys do as well.

The bantering and fighting and thriving with the boys, doing high risk stuff, knocking each others teeth out and getting drunk on moonshine to fuck each others unwashed assholes afterwards is the MALE way to go.

Only this makes us cope with the constant female bullshit so we can act as great fathers and lovers when the vaginas are around.

Elon hides cowardly behind his roasties shoulders and fails to socialise with other MEN, so he creeps the ungrateful creature away the moment she gets used to his money and the high society experience.

His ex toilets don't see him as a MAN but as a big tardish clumsy boy who'd be pathetic if he wasn't the ultimate betabuxxer.
The exes are always bossy Karen types like mommy Musk, he never had a submissive 18 yo who will do the double monkey backflips for the foid worshipping betabuxx coper.

It's possible I may not have paid attention to the Silicon Valley figures as much as I have Musk, but his brand of cringe really stands out to me in a way that Gates, Jobs and even Zuck never did.
Yeah we see people in prominent positions be quirky all the time, but I guess for me very few of them seem as insecure in their quirkiness as Musk does. I never get the sense that they wanted the entire world to laugh along with them.
Musk's brand of quirky seems to demand that you laugh and call him funny and amazing, or else he'll keep trying and trying. It's just really bizarre.

I see it like the difference between wearing pajamas to Target because they're comfy and you can't be bothered to change clothes, vs deliberately changing into pajamas to go to Target because you've seen others do it and you expect people to think you're cool for not bothering to change from your PJs.

One is quirky (and still prone to ridicule imo), and the other is ........something else.

Cyber Bowling describes it well here too:

Yes. Rather than just enjoying being a nerd, he seems to want everyone to love that he's a nerd and reaffirm his cool nerdiness every day.

For all his quirks, one of which literally caused him to die of cancer one thing Steve Jobs was not was a reddit meme addict like Musk is. It's like mentally he never moved on from the period of culture where he was genuinely seen as cool and funny by parts of the internet. That clip of him laughing at something on his phone next to Trump was next level sad. He's insecure and wants to be validated as a "dank memer" archaic intetnet culture and all.

Jobs never moved on from 1968 either
