I read the article, because I've been trying to do better about not skimming headlines, and it's money.
An interesting thing they said, though, has me a little frustrated, because they left out vital context.
Hitler was Person of the Year, too. It's not about popularity, it's about global effect and influence, and it's no secret that most of the world has decided they want in on his brand of corporate-led fascism.
So is person of the year going to be Musk this year? Or are they going to go with some pandering and give it to “all former federal workers”?
My money is on some form of the latter.
Person of the Year is Musk, and the cover is him sitting behind the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office.

That’s actually a lot more trolling than I would have expected from time magazine lately.
