It’s like they have an asshole purity test, and Musk is too much of an opportunistic asshole and not enough of a racist asshole to meet their standards.
Musk is absolutely a colossally racist asshole who completely meets their standards. His companies have had to settle racial discrimination cases multiple times. He’s a bigot of the highest order who can’t even get past his politics to love and accept his own daughter. Even Cheney did that when his daughter came out.
This makes me wonder… would I rather have the real-life supervillains like Musk who end up causing massive amounts of damage for no reason or comic book ones like (some versions of) Lex Luthor who ultimately want to better humanity, they just don’t care who they have to hurt to get us there?

Imagine being the wrong kind of asshole and being told you’re no longer welcome at the asshole club.

I mean, supervillains often turn into anti-heroes. Even Lex Luthor has some ‘good guy’ arcs. Some like Dr. Doom are the mythical benevolent dictators.
