This is to MAGA: If you hero-worship Musk for being worth $1.3 trillion, you are an asshole.

Receiving tens of billions of dollars in government aid and contracts allowed him to become the richest man in the world.

Then as the richest man in the world, he effectively signed the death certificate of millions of people, as the unelected monster in charge of an specially created government, all because he spent hundreds of millions to put a fascist in the White House.

The richest man in the world then took an axe to cut life-saving health research and essential overseas aid that was there to help the people who are most in need.

Even if he was worth 20 trillion, his legacy is as one of the most toxic creatures to ever walk on this planet.

If Musk is your hero, you are one sick MF.
