    It didn’t start with the media, it started with the crypto libertarians and tech bros. I might be misremembering but I think the news media got on their knees in the mid 2010s.

    Well, that and the stupid cameo in iron man. But in general when people say media these days they mean the fourth estate not paramount pictures

      In the mid 2010’s when Tesla started producing real electric cars and SpaceX first landed a rocket on a floating raft, he genuinely seemed like a visionary who was going to fix a lot of our problems.

      Unfortunately at some point he decided he wanted to be the source of most of our problems.

        I miss 2010s Musk, or what we thought he was. It rapidly become apparent he was a moron who used his birth lottery money to luck into even more money.
