Fair enough. Honestly both of them are rather irrelevant to me because I don't use microblogging social media platforms, so I have no stake in the fight.

I genuinely don't understand the elon hate. Meta is essentially US govt social media, why in the fxck would anyone use their garbage?

What has the world come to when people actually think Zuckerberg is the lesser of two evils.

Musk is starting to look like a bit of an asshole, but Zuckerberg is the king of assholes.

Where would the EV market be without Musk buying Tesla? The Prius hybrid would probably still be the most electric thing on the market.

Where would private space exploration without his founding of SpaceX? We would still be waiting for the next US President to cancel their predecessor’s NASA plans and make new plans.

Where would be without Zuckerberg? Probably using a myspace clone with a lot more UI flexibility and crazy banner ads.

Musk put self-driving EV cars on the road and William Shatner in space. Zuckerberg convinced people to give them their data then monetized it and used that knowledge against them.
