Sucking at games is not bad. Fucking human lives, exploiting countries, being a Billionaire and a fucking Nazi, is.
of course, but he pretends to be very skilled at this game and has hired people to fake it for him….
now, he’s so narcissistic that he still thought he could livestream himself playing, and people would see how good he is… then he died to a tutorial boss….
the point is he’s a fraud at every level, and this is some juicy undeniable proof.
it’s hard to really prove he’s a fraud at spacex and tesla and pretending to be some super genius, but proving he’s even a fraud at stupid video games proves he’s probably a fraud in everything else.
if he actually had any real skill at anything, he wouldn’t need to fake being a good gamer.
i suck at video games all the time, and i enjoy it… but i never pretend like im the best gamer ever.
btw, he also called chess too simple…
I mean, even this isn’t very hard. My relative used to work at SpaceX, and it’s an open secret that the company has a team of people dedicated to keeping Elon away from the engineers. Like as soon as he steps out of his office, there are multiple people whose sole job is to push paperwork and “problems” (read: “literally just basic decisions that anyone in middle management could make”) in front of him to keep him completely distracted with inane and inconsequential things, while also making him feel like a big important decision maker.
All so he doesn’t have time to wander down towards the engineers. Because if he does get to the engineers, he’ll inevitably try to one-up them with some “why are we doing it this way that I’m too dumb to understand? I don’t like that I can’t understand it. We should do it this dumb way instead” decree. And now the entire company is going to grind to a halt until the engineers can redesign the entire system to fit his new dumb design.
Like he desperately wants to fit in with the engineers, but the only way he knows how is to try and flex his (nonexistent) technical expertise. So the company has hired people specifically to prevent that scenario from ever happening.
while i believe all of this, it’s not super easy to prove.
a livestream fail is undeniable, complete proof that he’s a fraud in video games….
and it does lend credence to the idea that he’s a fraud in everything else.
Like making them make the tip of the rocket pointy because he saw it in the movie the dictator.
