    I see some people downplay that he’s cheating at a video game, but it isn’t just like a regular level of cheating. His character is position #3 on the Hardcore ladder. He’s paying like 4 people (by his own admission in leaked DMs) to play his character 24/7 and then he’s posting on twitter that he’s the #3 player in the world.

    Path of Exile is a game that I’ve liked for a long time. Path of Exile was popularized for competitive racing and having a competitive leaderboard. This level of cheating makes the game look pretty bad. It sucks that the devs have not banned him. It bothers me that someone is allowed to buy the top position of the leaderboard of probably my favorite game.

    Elon is Nazi and we knew that way before he even did the salute. He’s been posting about his race science breeding fetish on twitter for years. There are many reasons to hate Elon Musk. Pointing out that he cheats at video games is not a distraction from the other reasons to hate him.
