    Seriously. Just check out the front page of YouTube when you’re signed out. There’s almost always at least one video there praising Musk, and the people in the comments are treating him like a God who can do no wrong. The general public idolizes him.

      You’ve overestimating the reach of online marketing.

      Yes, online pretenders have been paid to pretend to idolize Musk. And this is enough of a trick to get others to idolize Musk. But in my experience, its a small minority of people who pay attention to internet drama or CEOs.
