I don't know how I feel about that. They both deserve to be treated like cartel criminals. NOTHING LESS.

You gotta realize criminals and street life is the same as the mainstream. Please trust me.

Agreed. Rationalizing one as being the 'lesser evil' is basically just shifting the Overton window. Both are evil. Both deserve to lose. If they can make each other lose that would be ideal but if only one wins, we all still lose.

It’s odd to me people think Elon is more evil anyway. He’s definitely louder and stupider but way less responsible for tearing apart the fabric of our society. And some of his projects have been a net positive.

They should both lose to death but if we’re gonna make the comparison, Zuckbot is hands down more evil.

That being said, it will still be hilarious if zucc beats the shit out of Elongated Muskrat.

Agreed, I may have more of a gut level disdain for Elon, but Zucc is clearly way worse because of the way Facebook's algorithms have harmed society.

That's cause Elon's a fucking troll on top of being a douchebag. At least Zuck has the decency to try to hide it.

True true! Zuck was a catalyst for social media, and Elon for abused tech/science. I knew Elon was a joke the minute he talked about putting a car in space, just to test something, but back then I just got hated by reddit. It sucks that the world and space programs didn't come after him for that.
