Toby Young burns are good enough regardless of source, but when it comes from his wife it’s even more entertaining. What an awful worm that man is.

I just... I don't understand how you can possibly play deus ex and not realise that the ultra wealthy tech psychos are the bad guys.

They literally try to kill your character, and your brother, and take over the world. The main bad guy is literally a technology obsessed megacapitalist who is plotting to kill a shitload of people with a virus.

There is no subtext or anything the game basically beats you over the head with how evil they are. Deus ex is a fascinating an in many ways nuanced game but there is no interpretation about that part of the plot.

I can understand he's never played deus ex but if you've played it how the gently caress you can miss literally the bluntest point of the game is mind boggling.

I bet he didn't play the original, but did play Human Revolution. Who does have a largely sympathetically-depicted tech CEO, albeit still one that does incredibly awful things. He's just supposedly well-meaning about it; the kind of big money guy that'll absolutely embrace a utopia, just as long as it's on his terms and rule.

...so yeah, Elon definitely played Human Revolution.

There's also That Song by Big Wreck.

Tenacious D did eventually reveal the greatest song in the world in The Pick of Destiny though.

That's the thing about people who are inclined for psycho-nutter rightist thinking; they only look at aesthetics and context is meaningless to them.

The song talked about in Tribute was a rock-off between Dave Grohl and Tenacious D at the end of Pick of Destiny. This is stupid song canon.
