People watching movies: How do they not realize that the eccentric billionaire is obviously a supervillain?

People watching Elon Musk: Rich man will build rockets to take me to Mars lol

@lowqualityfacts To be fair Musk is too incompetent to be an effective supervillain. I doubt he will ever get anything near Mars at the rate he's going.
@ML2 Elon is basically Justin Hammer of our world (the MCU version, comic version is different). He is so laughable and pathetic that even heroes would not take him seriously if he tried to do something, because they would know he would fail at whatever he planned to do even without their intervention.
@ML2 @lowqualityfacts: Maybe, a future supervillain will use his mummified corpse like he used that orbiting car, and put him in a Martian orbit.

@lowqualityfacts

It's like with all rich people:

They won't do shit.
Their money will enable teams of others to achieve things and then they will take all the gain and credit for it.

@lowqualityfacts donโ€™t forget about the brain microchips.
@lowqualityfacts People addicted to crime shows are always the ones telling the news media "But he was such a nice, quiet man!" as the forensics teams go through their serial-killer neighbour's house looking for more bodies.

@lowqualityfacts

They made soooo many movies about this already though. ๐Ÿคญ

@lowqualityfacts Seems odd that Hollywood has spent decades portraying wealthy people as billionaires. They've made a cultural impact but nothing else.
@lowqualityfacts musk will eliminate middle class with his robots and AI
@lowqualityfacts man, I know what you mean. That Tony Stark character was so very obviously evil.
@gregsdennis In which universe? Because not in the MCU. Also, don't compare a living, breathing billionaire that could do better stuff with his money than he does, to a fictional man whose morality depends on the writer who is in charge of his comics. I said it many times before, Tony is not an ideal man, but in comparison to Elon, he has better foundations as a person, because he cares about other people's well-being and listens to them and tries to help them as best he can.
@the_luck_witch ... It was a counterexample by way of sarcasm.
@gregsdennis Sorry, I don't always recognize sarcasm :(
@lowqualityfacts that man ain't even going into Space, let alone Mars.
He's a fraud, a huckster, a crybaby narcissist demanding attention.
@lowqualityfacts still pretty concerning that he has made and tested a MIRV bus and nobody seems to care.
@lowqualityfacts This has been obvious since he offered/threatened to dig tunnels under major cities. The Underminer was introduced in _The Incredibles_ in 2004. Even as a supervillain, he can't even come up with his own ideas.
This is not a low quality fact, @lowqualityfacts
Everything ok?
@lowqualityfacts This is the actual storyline of Ben Eltonโ€™s Stark and weโ€™ve all forgotten

@lowqualityfacts never underestimate the fact that satire and irony are dead
