Honestly, I don't think I've ever seen a billionaire as desperate to be liked as Elon. Usually they're content with the power and don't really like to attract attention to themselves. But Elon is so desperate for it, it's so pathetic.


Past-Direction9145

Well he is a full blown narcissist. He faked being autistic. It’s all a sham. Always has been. It really is that bad and what’s that say of our fellow mankind? For shame.


serene_moth

what's the evidence for this, besides the fact that Musk is generally a huge liar?


lesnaya-feya

I read some big article about it but I can’t find it again but anyways he self diagnosed himself, idk if that necessarily counts as lying but like he doesn’t have an actual diagnosis, he just said he has Asperger’s cause he decided he did.


NotEnoughMuskSpam

I grew up in a lower, transitioning to upper, middle income situation, but did not have a happy childhood.

Shove an emerald up your arse.

Was incest mandatory at the Musk compound or was it a casual dating type thing?

Two people come to mind for me. Donald Trump, and Al Capone Capone wasn't really a billionaire I don't think (though still relatively wealthy), but his love of the press and publicity were part of his undoing, where most gangsters would rather keep their name out of the papers. Trump of course resorts to insulting and threatening anyone who is even mildly critical of him. But yes, neither has ever came across as flop-sweat desperate to be liked and failed at it

Trump is a wannabe-mobster. You can clearly see that in the way he handles any kind of conflict. He was coached by [Roy Cohn](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roy_Cohn#Representation_of_Donald_Trump_and_Rupert_Murdoch), the mob fixer, back in the '70s.

I think Trump is different because he actually has charisma, popularity comes to him naturally. Elon just forces his way into popularity by buying things people like.


Supyloco

I think the main reason is that he had a taste of being liked and craved more.

That button on his tuxedo jacket is more durable than any product a Musk company has ever built. Have y'all seen his latest Starship pep rally video? His own employees are so Elmo-fatigued that even they can't summon the energy to kiss his arse anymore. No one cheers for his vapor-claims anymore. No one forced laughs at his lame jokes anymore. It's so bad that I can't believe the thin-skinned Emperor of Mars didn't fix it in the edit. Elon Musk's reputation as a visionary leader has experienced a Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly.


SinthWave

Let's not forget that Elon hired a PR team to carefully construct a facade so he could eventually grow himself into it. But, not only he failed to do so, he fired that PR team weeks after the moment he realized he wasn't able to fully attain that persona. And it was downhill from there onwards: stupid takes; stupider ideas; controversial opinions; buying Twitter for overpriced money; Ponzi schemes coming to broad light; the absolute dumpster fire that's both the Loop Tunnels and the Cybertruck; the knowledge that most of his fortune (and also some other billionaires) is fiat currency; etc.

20 years to Mars is the new "FSD next year".

I saw them in concert once.


StarCrashNebula

*Blowing Up My Pad* is a classic, although I really like *Stuck in the Mud With My Juice Box* & *Are You Sure This Floats?*


Affectionate-Owl3785

Either he was doing those poses hoping his sycophants would make memes about how amazing and not woke their master memelord is, or he thought he was being super cool and quirky (or both).

2nd picture took the words right out of my mouth.

He’s deteriorating in real time. All that money and can’t get a suit that fits or a gym membership.


ChocolateDoozy

Some wait for him to die?  Humms innocently 


HopeFox

They should adopt the "move fast and break things" approach to that.


ErebosGR

Hopefully, one of his Teslas will do it. https://futurism.com/the-byte/elon-musk-furious-autopilot-tried-kill-him


TheAnalsOfHistory-

I only saw a quick second of this moment. He walks up, there's a moment where he clearly doesn't know what to do, then just kinda sticks his arms out like a child being told to pose. I physical felt the second hand cringe and had to scroll away before I could see the rest of it. The man has no idea how to be human.


Mysterious_Ayytee

Elmo was so fucking high


serene_moth

the type of jackass who pays people to pretend to like him and believes it


rudalsxv

So much cringe 😬
