Yeah, the real difference is that Iron Man did more work in a 3-hour movie than Musk in his whole life.

Not when you are coked up on ketamine, it's an adventure.

I wanted to read it. I did.
But seriously! How much work would it take for somone, anyone! Even the writer! Just read over the article once before before pushing the send button!

The very first letter of the very first word (only a two letter word) is wrong.

“Un an interview that’s”

I can’t do it.

At least we know chatgpt wasn’t involved

Great idea, write something with AI then randomize the first letter - no one will see it coming

My god, that’s brilliant!

There’s a typo even before that. “Tony Spark”

“One particular point of contention for Downey Jr is Musk’s obsession with Mars colonization. The actor didn’t mince words when he stated, “This idea of, ‘It’s all okay because we’ve gotta get to Mars,’ doesn’t really hold water with me.” It’s a striking criticism that cuts to the heart of Musk’s most ambitious projects.”

Of all of the thing’s Techbro has said and done, his fakey mars ambitions are a particular point of contention for RDJR? The nazi stuff is ok, but him pretending we’re all going to mars so we don’t have to care about Earth that parts the real issue? I hope this is just editorialized and out of context.

The writer here, rereporting another interview seems fairly Musk tolerant.

RDJ probably is too. But at least he’s calling him on a few things.

You’re right. It is, at least, something.
