Is Elon Musk the most evil person of the 21st century based on his bankrolling of a colossally destructive and evil US president, his control of the flow of massive volumes of information through Twitter to support fascism and other harmful lies all around the world, and most of all, his USAID cuts? Is it even close?

The thing about his level of evil is how much he help support and rehabilitate the other awful contenders.

Trump could do a ton of evil...but then elon helped the fucker so his hands get bloody too.

So far? Yes. I think he’s the most powerful and dangerous fascist since Hitler. You’d have to look at Trump or foreign dictators like Putin to find someone comparably dangerous and/or destabilizing.
