    To think that not so long ago, this authoritarian, grifting man-child was hailed as the real-life Tony Stark. If the mask slips any further, even his remaining fanboys are going to find it difficult to defend him.

      I don’t think he has near as many fanboys as the musk circlejerkers on reddit always made it out to seem. I barely ever see anyone genuinely fanboy him anymore, at most many are neutral to him while still thinking he’s an idiot.

      I think reddit (and social media in general) just has a habit of giving megaphones to “the other side”, no matter how small it actually is, so they can have someone to appear to argue against so it doesn’t look like they’re yelling at a wall.
