Look up Elon Musk’s alleged favorite books and they’re all either shit you read when you are 13 (which he also happened to completely misunderstand) or biographies of “great men.” Him having no use for taking in any new information is part of the reason he is the way he is.
have this guy’s businesses even invented anything yet that the villains of Total Recall didn’t?
guessing many of those "favorites" have never even had their spines cracked either
Every time he references Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy while clearly completely missing the point of the entire damn book makes every fiber of my being scream with rage and frustration.
“Supremacy” is stagnation.
But has he actually read any of them?
I mean, I agree due to my own confirmation bias of seeing him as The Most Incurious Man in the World; he'll accept and fixate on idea names that bolster what he wants and, unlike actual smart people, will not challenge these ideas nor hear people who challenge him.I mean, I agree due to my own confirmation bias of seeing him as The Most Incurious Man in the World; he'll accept and fixate on idea names that bolster what he wants and, unlike actual smart people, will not challenge these ideas nor hear people who challenge him.
All of his Great Genius Ideas are tired sci/fi futurist memes from the 70s and 80s. He's a manchild.
Elon is a Vogon.
