They could have at least read up about him if they were going to name drop, it was clear if you paid attention back then how bad he was, though it was more understandable for someone not paying attention to not know
All right yeah that’s what I thought. Well past when red flags were already coming up all over the place. No excuse for them to have been worshiping him by that date.
Man it was really stupid (and cringe) of them to talk about musk in discovery. And it aged terrible lol

Was it before or after the “pedo submarine” thing?
Because I’m having a hard time understanding how much attention one would need to pay.
I think before. Pedo submarine comment was 2018 and I believe this was 2017. He had made crazy comments but nothing was big news at that point iirc
Honestly, a better analogy is Henry Ford.
See also Thomas Edison.
Though to be fair, I am pretty sure Edison wasn’t a fascist, because fascism hadn’t been invented yet
An asshole is an asshole is an asshole. I get you, though
Hadn’t been invented, or just hadn’t been discovered yet?
I think the right word to use here is “defined”
Hadn’t been marketed properly.
Ideologies are invented, not discovered.
When was this episode aired originally?
All right yeah that’s what I thought. Well past when red flags were already coming up all over the place. No excuse for them to have been worshiping him by that date.
To this day , that title is in my list of top 5 titles, and probably the top Disco title.
That is also a great one and the other contender for best Disco title IMO.
