This has to be studied “we’re idiots and we admit it, but everyone should take everything we say as gospel despite admitting people shouldn’t.”

How the hell did we invent intellectual booze? Like it’s garbage that’s bad and we know we shouldn’t…but it’s too pleasurable to simply pass up?

EDIT: that being said, I know Elon is a sneaky bastard and not “stupid”, but I’m talking about all the suckers.

he is definitely very stupid


he's just also very rich, and so can hire smart people who also have no principles to do all the work; come up with ideas for him; and cover his ass. He has to pay them extra though, both to put up with him obstructing them doing their job by thinking he knows better, and to bribe them into not disclosing when he sexually harasses or assaults them
