even my dad texted me like "wow. Elon. a trillion dollars haha."

how many of these people even understand that a large portion of Musk's wealth is tied to ownership stakes and that valuations can change significantly? is it even worth trying to explain it to them.

lol u think they care about the details? even if 95% of his wealth were suddenly locked in an inaccessible crypto hardware wallet and lost to the ether they would still demand that the remaining 5% be confiscated by the government because he's "still kind of rich" and "a nasty guy." they ordered alex jones to pay $1.4 billion in a defamation judgment just because. lmao.

language is always and everywhere instrumental, even if unconsciously so.

The rhetoric is always “no one should be a billionaire” “no one should be a trillionaire”

Like they think these guys are sitting on Scrooge McDuck piles of cash and twirling their mustache “I can buy ANYTHING mwuhahaha”

genuine idiots might think this, of which there are many, but many "engaged" people understand at least in some abstract sense that he owns a lot of "assets" and "business interests." but nobody really cares, people will say whatever is convenient and plausibly "true" to promote their social objectives, in this case wealth confiscation. someone like aoc understands that he doesn't have a trillion dollar bills in the bank, that's not the point to her, nor is it the point whether he is a trillionaire in the most technically correct sense. it's just sloganeering.

By large portion, I assume you mean around 99.8%? I’m guessing fewer than 10% of people recognize this, and another 10% could get there with some prompting.

I think a large number of shitlibs think that Musk basically has a trillion dollars in gold coins hoarded away in a giant vault like Scrooge McDuck. And that this gold coin vault should be raided to fund "underfunded" schools and dem programs.
