I know intelligent people who have this "thing" where if Elon or someone rich is criticized, they feel compelled to defend him. And to an infinite degree - they will defend him and justify everything he does to a point where it looks like religious worship.
Even if they display good intelligence in the rest of their life...its like some sort of emotional thing when it comes to defending billionaires.
it some sort of instinct to worship authority? You can literally see an otherwise reasonable person's brain suddenly beging to compartmentalize when they start to bootlick a rich person.

Could it be that deep down they have some dream to one day become like Elon (the American dream that you have to be asleep to actually believe) and criticizing him threatens their dreams? Maybe that's it - a part of the culture in all developed capitalist countries is the belief that if you work hard you'll become Bezos or Musk (in reality you won't lol).

Maybe our culture is just predisposed to billionaire worship, a type of idolatry?

I keep remembering this quote:

“Brains are survival engines, not truth detectors. If self-deception promotes fitness, the brain lies. Stops noticing—irrelevant things. Truth never matters. Only fitness. By now you don’t experience the world as it exists at all. You experience a simulation built from assumptions. Shortcuts. Lies. Whole species is agnosiac by default.”

― Peter Watts, Blindsight

I think it's more of an emotional problem than an intelligence problem - people who gave otherwise good reasoning ability and abstract thinking, can fall into this trap.
