Probably not a popular opinion around here, but this is actually one of the rare cases where he is (was) extremely talented at his main thing (producing). That doesn't mean he deserves that disproportionate amount of wealth, but he's contributed more to culture than elon ever could.

This is basically undeniable, but what really makes me sad is the artists who don't seem to be Nazis or even right wing but still support this dude and stand up for him because he's been so influential on many of them.
