He, like Elon and others, has become a victim of success and being chronically online. There is no room for anything other than rote agreement with his pov. This makes taking anything he says seriously difficult as it is clear his ideas no longer get a priming pass by dissenting views from his inner circle.

Ycs rep overall has become damaged from his and others behavior which is unfortunate.
