It is literally his job. In the movie at least, he puts sawdust in the engine, and turns back the milage with an electric drill... Also, they look nothing alike. Harry Wormwood has a moustache and usually wears a hat, which Matilda once super-glued to his head as a prank...

If elongated muskrat saw Star Trek, it wouldn't even matter if he did. We already know he doesn't take any lesson from any media he allegedly consumes. His ass showed up to the Fallout tv show set to try to be on it, and then later crashed the premier party. Do you have any idea how little you have to play of Fallout in order to understand the late-stage capitalists were villains? Literally it's the opening of FO4, you don't even have to be a legacy fan to get that message loud and clear.

[@kauske]

He probably looks at the Enclave and thinks 'they are great, we should make that' and misses the part where the Enclave is literally its own worst enemy. Like, The Chosen One doesn't even do that much, it's Horrigan that self destructs the oil rig 'cause he's butthurt. Raven rock enclave collapses over a difference in ideologies and the FEV, letting the Brotherhood walk all over them. And then Whitesprings branch literally self eradicated with the scorched plague. It's never from outside that their BS collapses. But Muskrat probably saw 'a vault full of managers' and got excited, LOL.

[@Idkpleasejustletmechangeit]

Yeah. I've never even played any of the games (nor have I seen the show), but even I know that. Like, Elon would probably unironically believe that the experiments done in the vaults are a good thing.

Honestly in italy if we had a school party we were all instructed to do it potluck style. Barely ever did a teacher pay for all of it. We would set it up ourselves. We each bring a cheap thing and go to town. One guy one year brought rice cakes as that's all he had at home and I love ricecakes personally. Some think they taste like cardboard but the slightly salted ones or the corn ones are so nice they're addictive.

here's what Elon was thinking; "i am the most important person ever. i want to extract wealth from everyone without any restrictions, and democracies regulations are a big obstacle. other rich people should think exactly like me. donations to any fund that helps people who have historically been marginalized would make it harder to extract wealth or hurt the people i dont like (poors)" the guy is a literal racist from south africas apartheid era, who grew up with gems in his pockets that were mined by what was effectively slave labour, and invested those gems into companies that might make his dream to be the emperor of mars a reality, he gave a nazi salute at a political function and actively ignored the fact that his cars cant actually self drive in spite of being "just six months away" for years, his factories break laws all the time, he has promised fully automated humanoid robots "in a year or two" for the last decade, his space company fails to get beyond our orbit and regularly has complete vessel failures. if NASA had half the funding of spacex we would already have a lunar base and would be mining asteroids for materials to go into cargo ships bound for mars. elon musk is a nazi sympathizer wearing an 'industrial capitalist' nametag, and so many people willingly ignore the lack of a difference.
