    Autistic stereotypes do not equal a legendary performance.

    Not a Musk defender, either. I find him as despicable as most of y’all do.

        The over exaggerated movements and speech patterns, mostly. Musk is an awkward guy, but they just took it to an absurd level in my opinion.

          “they took it to an absurd level”… And you think a comedy sketch show should have chilled with the exaggeration to be more realistic?

            I think a “Legendary Performance” would have been a little more subtle. The joke was more about mannerisms, and that alone just isn’t deserving of “Legendary”

          That’s not a stereotype of low support needs autism. That’s just Elon being weird.

          If you look at their parody of other people who are non autistic but wacky, you’ll find the same exaggeration.

        No, I get it. But take away the context and I doubt most people would have known it was even supposed to be Musk.
