Am I the only one that is so tired of hearing about what celebrities/billionaires do? The planet is getting hotter every day and we can little afford distractions like what Musk or Trump or MGT or YE have recently done to get more attention. We have real problems that need real solutions. Are they helping us with that? Even a little bit?

We could just turn our backs on them and they would eventually disappear.

I know it's a rhetorical question, but no, of course you're not. I think most of us are sick to death of the capitalist spectacle.

After the dust settles, I hope this platform will become part of the solution to the problems you refer to. The potential is there. Although the fact that all of this started because of a guy who carefully tracks every movement of one rich asshole's airplane does somewhat undercut my optimism...
