elon musk becoming worlds richest man by virtue of internet hype and the ownership of obscenely overvalued shares in terrible companies is a very apt piece of news for the present moment

who the fuck buys a tesla? and what the fuck is it with all of those dumb companies he founds that he then pushes on his moron fanboys? so so dumb. although the prospect of him losing everything in a crash in a year or two is pretty great

everyone else I can think of who has become so rich has done so by virtue of whatever asset they own becoming ubiquitous. for musk that ubiquitous asset seems to be internet infamy

call someone a paedo on twitter? here you go mr musk, here’s a couple more billion

it is a neat little demonstration of the nature of fictitious capital though
