I should have guessed, but I honestly had no idea people in quantities thought the billionaire NVIDIA CEO who dresses like a shop in Caesar’s Palace and is making sure nobody can upgrade their gaming PC is a cool dude who we should defend enthusiastically on the internet.
@hacks4pancakes "People", or chaos bots? (Could, I know, be people repeating chaos bots, or people paid to spread chaotic disinformation, etc.)
But yeah, plenty of people willing to either be "devil's advocate" in every thread, or actually believe "hey, when I become a billionaire, I want that, too". As if anything like that is on their cards.
@hacks4pancakes on principle,anyone who makes a leather jacket look uncool does not deserve being defended.
Then there is the REST of the shit stuff he pulled, so, fuck that guy, and the cretins defending him.
@hacks4pancakes that sounds unlikely. Is that happening here on the Fediverse, or on networks where bot swarms are more often employed to sway public opinion?
@hacks4pancakes Billionaire simps are the weirdest people.

@hacks4pancakes two Huang's don't make a right 🤣😂
Some people love and defend Musk too.
@hacks4pancakes "the most unlikable person in the peer group figured out that you put your personal diary upside down so people wouldn't read "DIARY" embossed on the front and read it because you didn't want to be inconvenienced by the clasp and lock it came with, and read all of it"?

@hacks4pancakes Must be the leather jacket.

I haven't heard much from Intel about all this but I'm willing to say that Lip-Bu Tan sucks too.
John Ternus and Tim Cook? Sucks and sucks.
@hacks4pancakes I have even heard US citizens praise Elon Musk
I'm not defending him enthusiastically, I'm just sobbing into my coffee, thinking how I'm just like him (i.e. aged 63) but how come I don't have leather jackets or an attractive young lady partner?? 😢
@hacks4pancakes The weird nerds who used to defend elon needed a fresh billionaire to develop a parasocial relationship with
@hacks4pancakes WHOMST among us hasn't been catfished by China while winding up the global economy like a fuse wrapped around a bucket of nitroglycerin

Sadly, the internet is full of bots, awful people.. and even more awful people who are desperate to "drink from the firehose" of whatever propaganda the bots are currently spewing out
