Not only is any kind of mass idolatry undemocratic by virtue of the inherent imbalance of this kind of relationship. One need not discredit his indisputably astonishing technological developments to examine the foul implications of the almost cult-like adoration of his persona. For a libertarian-billionaire CEO, Musk seems to have accrued a rather uncanny divine status.
Exclamations like these abound in the comment section under any Elon Musk related YouTube video. ‘Elon Musk is my God’, ‘My favourite human being’, ‘This guy is the future!’, ‘Find a way to make him immortal!’.
