Musk has cartwheeled his money and twitterati into influencing the governance of America. I don't think that's irrelevant -- though it may not last long once the thieves start brawling over the spoils.
All the same, I don't think "irrelevance" befits him.
Were people to boycott his far right platform shit he spew would return to irrelevance. Now he is relevant cause millions can see dumb crap he posts but it is audience that gives him influence. If people will do right thing he will be starved as countless other trolls were.
The first revolt is against the supreme tyranny of theology, of the phantom of God. As long as we have a master in heaven, we will be slaves on earth.
