   > Elon Musk has wielded a virtual monopoly on how we think about the future,
   
   the word "monopoly" becomes less and less meaningful. (it's only used here because people 'know' that monopolies are bad and the government has to do something about them)

     @raucao weirdly, the article doesn't even mention 'democracy', so it can't be a proper current day think piece

     @lain Either the "we" indicates projection, or it's insulting the reader. Throwing in the good old "virtual monopoly" is icing on the shit cake. Sounds like an excellent "think piece" to me!
