Every picture I see of him he's wearing that leather jacket - tell me a CEOs role isn't entirely performative.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That's a tech CEO thing - Jobs' turtlenecks, Gates' blue oxford shirts, etc. You wouldn't think twice about a Wall Street guy in a suit, but that's just a daily uniform.

Yep, they love it.

They also all love saying they could have (or would have) been a physicist.

Pretty sure Elon's completely given that game away.

Elon just dresses like the pig he is.

To be fair, I've seen him in another stupider leather jacket that was reptile textured.

In a corporation that size? Yeah it's entirely performative.

They obviously don't pay him enough and that's why he only has the one outfit.
