This is reminding me of the early days of President Trump. Is Elon so smart he’s playing 3D chess and we can’t even see the moves? Ah, no, he’s an idiot.
@krisajenkins it’s been fairly clear he’s a vain bully with delusions of intellectual superiority for a long time to anyone paying attention, but it’s good that this is now playing out on the front pages.

@cms Yeah, and with a bit of luck it’ll be a wake-up call to him too.

Okay, with a _lot_ of luck. 😉

@krisajenkins Fun week! Metaverse haemorrhaging money, Elizabeth Holmes given eleven years gaol time, the Elon-daily show. I hope it’s an inflection point where people properly start questioning the cult of the enfant terrible as the key engine of tech success. Steve Jobs isn’t coming back, and it’s more reasonable to assume he was a success in spite of being a toxic asshole, not because he was one.
