THE RESULTS ARE IN
After narrowly losing to Thiel in 2022, then taking the crown in a competition with Jeff Bezos last year…
…ELON MUSK retains the title of Worst Person in Tech 2024.
Is anyone even surprised?
Thank you to the thousands of people who participated in this year’s contest!
If these tech billionaires are making our lives worse, we should at least be able to have some fun at their expense.
Here’s the screenshot to prove Musk is the winner!
@parismarx I feel like the people who voted for Elon over Peter are just unaware of all the bullshit Peter is responsible for.
@draeath @parismarx I agree, Musk is a petty evil, working for his own ego and as such is incredibly loud. Thiel meanwhile is malicious evil, working simply to spread pain through control, a traditional authoritarian with a nasty sociopathic streak.
@nini @draeath @parismarx No fair! We need ranked-choice voting next time!
I'm pretty sure the real worst person in tech is someone we have never heard of.
This kind of contest are always a reverse popularity contest.
Who cares. The world would be a much better place if those two would have never been born. That's what counts.
@parismarx nope. I knew he would win and Thiel would make final four, although I predicted Altman beating Bezos. Guess people don’t hate AI as much as I thought!
@parismarx Finally a title for Musk, he did not need to bribe someone for.
@tenkoman @parismarx he spent a lot of money during the election campaign to secure this title.
Not even a teeny tiny bit surprised.
@parismarx The people voted for me
@tootroll they voted for against you, yet against for you.
@parismarx Of course Musk wins the title, he has the stupidest ideas and doesn't have a filter in what he says.
@parismarx Yup! I'm surprised you're generously granting #ElonMusk the attention he so desperately craves & seeks.
@parismarx that's nice! Did you know he is also one of the richest people in the world?
@parismarx He should feel very proud, being the World's Most Irritating Man and now this, two years in a row such achievements!
Will his dad finally be proud of him?
lol, probably not....
@parismarx *Luigi has entered the chat*
@parismarx
Thank you for your post. What is Musk's standing in the worst person on the planet?
Peace
@parismarx Thank you for doing this!
@parismarx no need to surprise anyone because nobody even cares. People should, people should have a long time ago but obviously they don't
@parismarx A true SUPER BOWL of jerks
@parismarx thats a very liberal use of the word "'person".
@parismarx And I for one am not the least bit surprised. He earned this.
@parismarx in „Tech“ is that a new word for „World“?
@parismarx I am surprised any won with Thiel ... but Elon is playing "Bond villain" level game.
@parismarx A little surprised: is the fool who openly flouts his mediocrity more sinister than the hand behind Palantir and other shadowy moves?
@parismarx Just throw them both in the woodchipper. Why bother splitting differences?
@parismarx
But he's just like the orange turd. They thrive on any kind of attention, neg or pos.
@nicholasr @parismarx the thing that put it to Musk for me, despite Palintir, despite Gawker, is that Musk will cause Kessler syndrome with SpaceX @sundogplanets has detailed quite a lot of this.
Thiel is a dangerous vampiric man. But I fear an incompetent man with money and minions more.
