More and more Musk is looking like Trump 2.0. Rich daddy, inherited wealth, not that bright, drives businesses into the ground, loudmouthed, vindictive and petty.

Imagine being one of the richest (publicly, at least) people on the planet, and being enough of an asshole to try to mess with unions publicly, in an industry you have a major financial stake in. One would think that would be illegal, obviously it's very petty.

an aside
Ever since elon Musk’s lackeys began fiddling with the algorithms of X (formerly Twitter), I have noticed a distinct shift in the content that is pushed onto users. My “For you” tab is now a nest of tradwives, shoplifting videos, and that guy who has strong opinions on trouser creases. It is also home to the kind of old-fashioned misogyny that I once thought was on the decline.

I wonder if the algorithm varies by country (I'm in the UK.) My 'For You' page is motor sport, game news, nostalgia bait, and some low quality meme channels. Oh and about 5 separate cat video channels - I swear I've only clicked about 2 videos in my whole life! I don't get politics shoved into my feed even though I sometimes click trending topics that are bitter arguments around culture war / politics etc when I fancy some doomscrolling.

Elon Musk is like that 14 year old that somehow got opped on IRC back in the day.
Do you have a single fact to back that up?
