Elon Musk <- For the people filtering the name
Back then, I actually said he was one of the most dangerous people alive due to the work his company was doing on computer chips in pig brains.
Turns out I was right. The man's a real-life Gendo Ikari.

Nah, he’s Ellis in Die Hard, or Burke in Aliens.

Problem was his goal was totally stupid. Kill half of all life and destroy the stones? So it can rebound in a few centuries if not decades?
Thanos just had a hard on for lady death

Jack Black in Tropic Thunder.

I thought it was cool that he was making space ships and EVs. I like space. I like EVs. Guess I was naïve.

let's get real, he's always been Tony.
Tony ain't no saint. he's done his fair share of fucked up shit.
however, Tony ain't a Nazi and that's where the line is drawn.

car in orbit
He used a Tesla roadster with a mannequin in the driver's seat as a dummy payload for the Falcon Heavy test flight in 2018.
And isn't the reason it's "falcon heavy" because he wanted it to sound like "fuckin heavy"?

Elon Musk <- For the people filtering the name
15 years ago I thought he was a dorky rich guy with a well-connected publicist.
10 years ago I thought he was a too-full-of-himself car manufacturer who bought his way into the game who overestimated his own engineering prowess.
5 years ago I thought he was an asshole and wondered why other people seemed to respect him.
Now I think he's a pathetic rich guy who got used and thrown away by Trump, the guy famous for using people and then throwing them away. Fuckin' cuck of a chump who could have his cock in the US's pussy and still wouldn't have the balls to fuck.

Same. I'd have rather space not be privatised, but was glad to see some interest in research again.

We. Always. Knew.

Elon as Thanos? Naw, Thanos was right. Elon? Not so much...

No way. Thanos was actually cool.

Actual Elon.

Thanos was the universe's biggest mass murderer, but at least he had a point (even if his solution was the dumbest thing imaginable}. Musk is just a PoS.

Musk as Lex Luthor would be a better fit, and even that might be insulting to Luthor.

In the comics Thanos was straight up the right man hand/side hoe of the concept of death made manifest the whole point of offing half of all life was just to make mistress death happy (I think she actually ordered it). A lot of the original plot points of the infinity war and its buildup was lost in translation. Movie thanos motivations werent even half baked, he could have doubled resources and made a paradise for life with his motivations

I guess that tracks because Thanos is stupid as fuck.
Trying to solve the resource problem by killing half of the universe just doesn't help. In a couple of decades, the population would be back to the previous number.
He could just snap his fingers and make those missing resources appear. Whole empty planets for people to live with abundance etc.
It feels like he thought of the problem for like one minute and decided to take the easiest short term solution possible.
