#MetaphorDiseaseMindVirus #IRLEntrepreneurElonMusk "1. Where did the woke MIND virus come from? What is its origin? 2. Wokeness is arguably one of the biggest threats to modern civilisation. 3. We should be aiming for a positive society, and it should be OK to be humorous. 4. Wokeness basically wants to make comedy illegal. 5. Do we want a humourless society that is basically RIFE with condemnation and hate? 6. At its heart, wokeness is divisive, exclusionary and hateful. 7. Wokeness basically gives mean people a shield to be mean and cruel, armoured in false virtue. 8. Senator Karen called Elon a freeloader who basically doesn't pay taxes, yet Elon is paying more taxes this year than anyone ever in the history of the United States. 9. Senator Karen basically doesn't pay taxes and her salary is paid for by taxpayers. 10. If you could die from irony, Senator Karen would be dead. 11. Elon sold most of his Tesla Stock to exercise options and rounded it up to 10% of his holdings voluntarily. 12. Elon Musk's entire net worth is tied up in Tesla and SpaceX. 13. SpaceX is the only US provider of astronaut launches to the space station and MUCH cheaper than the Russians. 14. Until Elon sold stock this quarter, he had more than 100% of his net worth tied up in SpaceX and Tesla (because he had borrowed against his stock since he doesn't receive a salary) so if the companies went bankrupt, Elon would immediately go bankrupt too. 15. Elon built two companies that were EXTREMELY DIFFICULT and painful to build, and the stock market has decided what those companies are worth and that is what makes up Elon's net worth."

Supplementary "Some recent research has shown what we all knew -- Elon Musk's escapades into wildly-incorrect-conspiracy-theory land and his seemingly full-time effort to try to save Twitter in order to 'save' humanity (or something like that) have not been working wonders on Tesla's brand. In fact -- shocker -- pushing numerous debunked (and sometimes just obviously illogical) conspiracy theories and tweeting almost every day about the dire, dangerous, very scary threat of people being 'woke' appears to have made many fans lose faith in his focus, his intelligence, his problem-solving skills, and his leadership; and have also made many people (including longtime Tesla owners) swear off buying a Tesla (or another one, as the case may be)." https://cleantechnica.com/2022/12/13/tesla-brand-dropping-as-elon-tilts-at-woke-windmills-who-wouldve-guessed-it/ #MetaphorSpatialTiltingAtWindmills
