            Good point, I should probably have said “working for a fascist billionaire manbaby”

              Again, that doesn’t really narrow it down.

                It wasn’t supposed to narrow it down, quite the opposite

        At this point I have to assume it’s malicious compliance by staff to make Elon look bad.

          to make Elon look bad.

          why would he need any help when he’s doing so much on his own?
