       OK, clearly you folks REALLY hate Elon Musk. Fair. But think of it this way: if it wasn’t for capitalism, you wouldn’t even know who that smug douchebag was. The only reason he’s a god is because capitalism is the religion.

       @aral  Musk is an entitled dweeb.  Capitalism or any other form of economy requires constraints in order to be successful. Ripping off others should be recognized and constrained.

       @aral leftwing Dutch punkband Hang Youth covered ecactly this feeling (except Musk) in a wonderful song https://open.spotify.com/track/3aTicZdpOJbZxj0mVzGR3v?si=NxMqliDbSEmfJnbt0WOcwQ ("you don't hate Mondays"..., the rest speaks for itself)

       @aral the good of capitalism as religion is due to being a politheist religion in which gods ar replaced from time to time as in democracy.

       @thakman53 Billionaires… trillion-dollar corporations… doesn’t look like there’s much constraining going on. One wonders if it’s possibly by design.

       @aral Since 1985 the  restraints on Capitalism have been removed one by one.  This is what the US has left.

       @aralI don't think this is entirely true. There are plenty of uber-billionaires with huge amounts of control, and they're not household names. Their companies aren't household names (though the dozens of related, allegedly competing brands they own might be). You wouldn't be able to pick them out of a line up.You really know him from an offshoot of celebrity culture and the need for personality cult. Which is also the same in other authoritarian regimes.
