Using uBlock Origin, you can add your own filter. This filter will block any post with the text "Elon Musk" (not case sensitive), modify as needed.

lemmy.world##div.post-listing:has(span:has-text("/elon musk/i"))

div.post-listing is the element to block
:has(args) returns elements where args evaluate to true
span is the element with the title text
:has-text(needle) returns the element if it has the next needle, supports regex with \needle\ and remove case sensitivity with i

You can dictate what your employees do in a company you own, that much is self evident

He can tell his employees to go one way and ignore (or fire) them when they raise objections

So he can be in total control and still be a spoiled rich idiot, those things are not mutually exclusive

The question people are usually arguing about is whether he gets "credit" for his companies' successes. If he's got total control but he's an idiot, how are his companies doing so well?

Well, aside from Twitter. But nobody's good at everything.

You can be inteligent and an idiot. All companies are a combination of skill and luck.
