He’s a classic internet edgelord. “Autistic” is the spin doctor code word for antisocial. To them the thinly veiled nazi references are the height of comedy. The overall theme is that they think they’re operating on a meta level such that everyone else isn’t in on the joke.

I don’t think this is so much a wealth factor as much as it is right wing culture rot that plagues young men. Though obviously Elon isn’t young anymore but this culture dates back as old as he is. His fanboys love him because of all this. He is who they see in themselves. They are very smart but too lazy to achieve their potential because reasons. If only they had unlimited money they could beat the (((system))) that is conspires to oppress them for who they are. Namely being right leaning cis hetero white male.

Money didn’t break him. Without money he’s just another of the millions of basement dwellers who would be fanboying over some other right wing oligarch.
