I’m so sick of hearing about this shit. Talk about space? Oh, I think we’ll get to Mars because of brain genius Elon musk. Climate change? We need more entrepreneurs like brain genius Elon musk. Aspirations? Brain genius Elon musk. The world would be a lot better if we were all just a little more like brain genius Elon musk!

I already had to deal with fucking Steve Jobbs worship for decades. At least he had a turtleneck and glasses that made him look like a serial killer.

I can only explain the truth so many fucking times meow-cactus.

YES, I will derail every conversation in which he is mentioned! No, I will not hold my tongue to maintain peace! I will make sankara-shining and mao-wave proud!

    In case anyone was wondering why I regularly post my-hero to The_Dunk_Tank, it’s because I lived so close to the imperial core of the Bazinga Empire that I had to hear the Super Entrepreneur Brain Genius shit every. Fucking. Day. Offline and in person. Coworkers, strangers, sometimes just obnoxious shit like a chalk scribbling on a sign on the sidewalk making a twee reference to Le Epic SpaceX, shit like that.

    I’m glad to be somewhere where I only recently saw a few ZYBERTRUKKKs and otherwise haven’t been proselytized to about my-hero whatsoever. Still, the sheer cult of insufferably smug computer touchers around him still disgusts me.

    Electoralism is a fuck, but if top-cop can somehow snatch victory from the usual Democratic habit of getting defeated, I’ll still take some schadenfreude comfort in the Super Entrepreneur Brain Genius eating shit and being excluded from whatever big political backrooms the other billionaires that are less visibly obnoxious will otherwise be invited to. He’s hitched his wagon way too tightly lately in an all-in gamble on trump-anguish . He probably won’t ever go to jail because too rich and too white and too connected maxwell but I expect at least some further decrease in his completely undeserved reputation then.
