Worshipping the Wealthy has been the habit of the weak-minded from time in memorial; it's part and parcel to what's known in psychology as, the Halo Effect:
"a cognitive bias where our overall impression of a person, brand, or product unconsciously colors our judgment of their specific, unrelated traits.
this deference often overlooks the realities of how wealth is generated, inherited, or maintained, blinding observers to the systemic structures that enable extreme inequality."

In Musk's case, he wasn't particularly comparatively advantantaged at birth, but that says little about all those who were born on third base.... or the 'systemic structures' such as the ability to buy your own politicians and your own Laws and Tax Policies and obtain Gov Contracts.
He did learn something from being born white in S Africa... how to perform a really cool Nazi salute in front of really real Nazis.
You remember the definition of Fascism, don't you?
"Fascism is a far-right, authoritarian, and ultranationalist political ideology. It prioritizes the state and the "national community" over individual rights, and is typically characterized by a dictatorial leader, strict societal and economic regimentation, militarism, and the violent suppression of opposition.
Core Characteristics:
Economic Control: While private property is often maintained, major industries and labor forces are highly regimented by the state to serve national priorities (a form of corporatism)"

Democracies used to hate Fascism, if you recall, but now we have the Wealthy Elite doing in the US what they did in 1930's Germany; destroying democracy and replacing it with Rwing Thugs to do their dirty werk for them.
Thanks, Trumpers! (and most Republicans)
