We’re at least a decade beyond time and yet there doesn’t seem any ref willing and able to ‘red card’ Musk on his unending diarrhea of exaggerations, falsehoods, and patent bullshit. And yet, you’ll still find his defenders here and elsewhere insisting that he has been unfairly maligned, misinterpreted, or at most is just doing what every startup founder does to keep their businesses afloat. Even self-proclaimed radical liberal journalist Ezra Klein, formerly of Vox and now The New York Times still can’t help himself from occasionally praising Musk and playing professional apologist to his plenitude of fabrications and obvious nonsense suggesting that his companies will save us from climate change even while he openly promotes fascism and buys his way into government. Nobody in charge cares that his shitty cars regularly behave like a drunken idiot is driving, or slam in the brakes for no reason, or drive themselves into parked emergency vehicles, and he’ll SLAPP sue anyone who criticizes him too fiercely or just send his legions of adoring X-ites after them.
