Comment on Could X go bankrupt under Elon Musk?

It turns out that the most unrealistic part of “The Emperor has no clothes” was the crowd realizing after the child points it out that they’ve all been fooled.
The crowd will chastise the child and throw the child out of society for asking such a stupid question, or for making the emperor look foolish.
