It is worth noting that Musk has long positioned himself as a “free speech absolutist,” a self-appointed champion of open expression.

Musk is like a fractal of stupid. Like every piece of him has some new stupid.

No matter how closely you zoom in, there is always another layer of complete stupidity.

It's actually pretty good! Four hours and twenty mins long, so it's a commitment, but it's mostly a close up of a clogged toilet in real time. It's filled with equal amounts of all human bodily fluids, with a single baby rat swimming in it and slowly drowning as waste fully replaces the oxygen in its lungs. And then they play "gangnum style" over the credits.

narcissistic, megalomaniacal

That actually got me thinking. Are all megalomaniacs also narcissistic?

While often used interchangeably with narcissism, a megalomaniac specifically seeks power and fear rather than just charm or admiration.

Logically speaking, no

There by definition must exist at least some megalomaniacs that are not narcissistic

That's Illuminati territory, wanting to rule the world but not wanting any attention. I think a bunch of those working on finance also qualify.

I don't know. Reading the wiki on NPD, it feels like megalomania is an extreme version of the grandiose subtype of NPD. Maybe with some flavour of sociopathy added.
