I don’t know if they were joking or not, but it got me thinking about more accurate fictional analogues. I present: Jean-Baptiste Emanuel Musk.

    Not hardly. Musk is a coward & Zorg wasn’t afraid to get his hands dirty.

      Came here to say this. Plus Zorg is considerably more attractive, articulate, and confident than Elon. He takes pride in his company and his work, while Elon takes shits on everyone who’s worked under him and on everything he owns.

        I mean:

        -Grew up in a racist, bigoted society (Mormon Utah/apartheid South Africa)
        -has a creepy relationship with women (harem in HFW/all the female employees he knocks up or harasses)
        -initially touted as a savior because their big thing helps the environment
        -needs to be handled
        -irratic
        -needs to be worshipped
        -thinks they alone can solve the problems of the world
        -runs employees ragged with impossible deadlines
        -doesn’t think through the consequences of their impetuous decisions

        He’s totally Ted Faro.

    Elon is more of an act 1 villain who’s as villainous as he is incompetent.

      I’d argue that his incompetence actually overshadows his immense villainy, but have an upvote for truthiness.
