Elon being Elon is familiar -- so familiar that it's no longer even particularly grotesque. But Elon fans tying themselves in knots trying to explain how WELL ACTUALLY all of this is PERFECTLY CONSISTENT with free speech absolutism he promised . . . . well, that's showing some new lows in groveling and abasement.

Elon fans have always perplexed me. I kinda assume it's similar to how Trump has so many fans, but I honestly don't know for sure

@mathlover @Popehat it is like Trump, and Bojo, and Bolsonaro, and Alex Jones etc. A charismatic man who makes it OK to disengage from the disappointment politics of the liberal social justice elite and act like a self-serving, petulant toddler just like them, and still change the world for the better (for the right people, at least)
