The way he ruined Twitter, the whole Hyperloop scheme, his spreading of conspiracies… what was the last positive he brought to society? Starlink? And he managed to be an ass about that too.

I could’ve agreed with you maybe 2/3 years ago, but he’s gone full mask off recently. I wouldn’t label him as a “main” antagonist but he definitely is one.

Let's not forget his recent lawsuit against Media Matters for accurately reporting on the hate speech on xitter.

He managed to be an ass about it in a way that helped Russia's invasion and got Ukrainian soldiers killed.

[-] Syrc@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

No no, you got everything wrong, he just wants the war to stop, it only casually happened that that particular action was detrimental to Ukraine. He definitely doesn’t have ties to Russia, so it could also happen the other way around. Just wait. Any minute now.

Virtually all the good things Musk has supposedly done were done by other people. He's just an asshole with enough money to buy a whole lot of name recognition.

You cant calculate net positive based on actuals, but also include opportunity cost, and regardless, simple utilitarianism is morally reprehensible imho. Someone invents the cure for all cancers, and only commits the occasional rape or murder. Net positive? Hero/villain?

we criticize hollywood for lazy tropes but our two main antagonists right now is a former kgb agent with a penchant for poisoning and an emerald mine heir who wants to live on mars. if these were bond villains they'd be dismissed as caricature

You’re forgetting the creepy old guy with a German accent, no hair, and a penchant for dressing up in weird costumes, who runs a quasi-secret society with the intention to infiltrate every world government and bring about global communism that way.

Forgive my ignorance, but who's this guy?
