When criticizing Elon Musk, many people flex with how they "used to be a fan." This doesn't really work for me. It was *obvious from the beginning* that he a con man and a vicious industrialist. I really don't understand why people are such easy marks for people like him.
people seem to be flummoxed by billionaires.
@holon42 Really?! Isn't that supposed to a Boston show? Wow!
yes, but there were a couple episodes he was touted as a rich hunk by one woman whose name escapes me right now.
@FranklyCurious
yes, people seem to need to adore from afar.
tfg used to get that kind of attention. i recall some old Cheers episodes that made reference to him.
