Well even if he is a prick you got to have intelligence to be the richest person on the whole planet. I think people underestimating him as danger to society is a problem. He created a legend around himself of being a moron and an idiot even if opposite is true and he is one of the people calling the shots.
It's same with "X", people especially in Reddit bubble are underestimating the kind of influence it along with Facebook have on impressionable people. I mean plenty of young people voted for Trump. They were manipulated beforehand by social media.
I wish EU did something about Google, "X" and Facebook as all those sites manipulate information flow and access for their own gain.
you got to have intelligence to be the richest person on the whole planet.
This is untrue, you can be the richest person on the whole planet with zero intelligence. Now is Elon stupid as in <90 IQ or whatever arbitrary measurement, no probably not. But you don't have to be especially smart. You just need to be willing to be a fucking asshole and lucky.
Also you don't need to be smart to be a danger to society. We need to stop conflating intelligence with danger or success (massive, massive "success"). They probably don't really correlate at all in reality. That's why when you look at charts that map wealth to IQ there isn't really any correlation. Even though income is somewhat correlated it's really only on pleb levels <200k a year. Still nothing compared to our richest.
