You ever think about how most of the people we see aren't real? They look real, they have the faces of people who exist, and they sometimes share the opinions the people who look like them share, but the people we see aren't the people who exist, they're people we created to fit molds we have of the world we live in. Good guys, bad guys, everyone in between, all are made up by us and the people who want to influence us so that our world can stay real. But they're not real, and the people who look like them often have little in common with those we see. We pretend Elon Musk is all powerful, but strip away the fawning adoration, and you have a man who is more pathetic than most of the teens who emulate him. Not that said teens will admit that, of course.
