I've heard the same from several other people. Some of the other points that others realized include: him scrapping a rocket because it wasn't pointy enough, wasting over a billion dollars, when he fucked up Tesla, and when he made a fool of himself on Twitter after he had purchased it. More people realized after he created the rolling dumpster, some others realized when he roleplayed as his toddler son, even more have realized over the past year after it came out that he paid other people to play Path of Exile 2 for him, and I'm sure that even more realized that he was a loser after he posted ai dogshit of himself as Iron Man, and I'm sure some other things. Even more recently, he's been ridiculed for begging to go to Epstein's island, and seemingly being seen as such a loser by Epstein that he wasn't allowed to go. He went from being seen as a cool, interesting man, albeit a bit eccentric, to being seen as who he truly is, one of the biggest losers and pieces of shit in the history of the US.
Wait, what? Must have missed that one.
And the PoE thing was hilarious.
Yeah, he had an alt that he used to roleplay as his son. He had to admit to it in court. Shame it didn't get more attention. There's also a bit of evidence that he's a babyfur. I think that's like what he was doing with his son, but also furry? That one is nowhere near proven though.
