Who looks at this ugly af man and thinks "I want his genes inside my children"?

It’s the money, not the genes, that are attractive.

That's seriously my confusion. It's not like the genes will magically result in the child coming out a billionaire. The dude is not handsome/attractive and doesn't really convey any high degree of intelligence. If anything, I'd be worried the kid would be predispositioned towards substance abuse.

There is a whole ass propaganda campaign that makes people think Musk is some kind of super genius. Lots of people aren’t educated enough to see through it. I consider myself pretty media literate but I was still fooled by it for a little while.
