How could anyone but musk win?

Peter Thiel is also abysmal. Elon is more visibly terrible today but Thiel has been bankrolling regressives from the shadows for 20 years. He published his first screed about diversity in academia in 1995. So he is an all-time shitstain, for sure.

Depends on if we consider Zuccer a person.

Zuck is bad sure, but he's not a jackass, at least not publicly, he might not have made the best decision for meta but the company is by no means failing, Elon is just so much worse on every level.

Not failing, but actively ignoring Metas own research that shows Facebook is directly harmful to children and teens.

I’d say actively continuing to harm children should outrank being a jackass and/or incompetence.

At this point it's like choosing cancer over Alzheimer's. Die from excruciating inner torment or infuriate everyone else until you die.

I dunno, some of these votes are like comparing stage 4 leukemia to a mere urinary tract infection, and the UTI is somehow winning.
