Lol at all the downvotes. You have to be careful on lemmy. 85% of users here read everything literally, no matter how obvious the sarcasm is. Most of them see your comment as a genuine defense of Elon. “Elon is not a muppet! We’ve seen him moving and talking independently without wires. He’s obviously an actual human with agency, so it’s not rude to criticize him.”
I have insider information why do you think Trump is always next to Musk? Without the remote control he can just put his hand up his ass.
