Elon musk, a grand hero or a manipulative puppeteer

In today's news, Elon Musk is the face of power, money and influence who now owns more than everyone knows. With a networth of 359.4 billion USD, it is clear the influence of this man goes far beyond any means of today with both his money and and now political standpoint.

Musk played a significant role in the 2024 United States presidential election by establishing a political action committee (PAC) in support of Donald Trump for his campaign, making him the election's largest donor with over US$250 million. This was further built upon within his actions in which he did a 1000 USD lottery with those who chose to vote trump influencing the views of the lower class in the US from their own political standpoint towards one of Elon's personal views. By doing this it garenteed Trump's success in the election and due to the pact they had, allowed Elon to have more of a say in goverment decitions. This will greatly impact people's lives from both a quality of life standpoint and

He currently has control over one of the most popular apps for opinion sharing, twitter or now known as X. This allows him if he wishes to have the ability to censor certain debates that he views as distasteful towards his own reputation and influence what others wish to talk of. This to an extent is obviously manipulating the opinions and ideologies of people it society.

However he could be a hero if he truly chose to share his money and fund diffrent charities. By giving everyone a million USD he would still have way over 355 billion dollors that he can still use to his gain in other activities such as donating,. This would help us move along as a species much more but instead as a very influencial person he chooses to use many things such as those stated above to manipulate and influence lives.

Overall, I believe that Elon's power makes him more of a manipulating puppeteer compared to the hero he should be to people through his money.
