I used to be surprised at how stupid billionaires can be. But, then I remembered they don't actually do anything where they work, and the real employees run behind them and clean up their messes. When they stick their fingers in the works, they fuck it up, Cybertruck being one example.

Third generation curse.

I personally believe the cybertruck was a designer who was making fun of musk. He submitted a pinewood derby car he made when he was 7.

Its the literal emperors new clothes.
