absurd and unserious. more impactful for better or worse : Putin, Fauci/Covid vaccine researchers, US Supreme Court, Joe Manchin, Pelosi, Zuckerberg, Murdoch, Xi,etc.Others offered mixed feelings about whether or not he should be named Person of the Year.

Shame.

As long as its not Donald Trump i dont care who the select

I thought it's going be Brandon .

well deserved. this man is impressive. a true forward thinker.

Extremists democrats pandering and agreeing to time over the years…now just complaining bout a rich guy…lol

Well earned award!

Eh.

Absurd.

Yuk

Not a Musk fanboy, but people always, without fail, forget that 'Person Of The Year' does not mean that person is necessarily good. It's their impact on the world, hence why people like Putin, Biden/Harris, Hitler, Trump, etc etc etc the list goes on, have won in the past.

he made 2021 exponentially worse so if that makes him the person of the year then good for him ig

FFS...awarding/rewarding a giant ego who spent enough money to ensure that starving people could eat for a year on going into space? TIME could not have chosen a less suitable person...bar Donald Trump

Gotta keep that streak of shitty PotY going, I guess. Let's see if they can make it 3 in a row!

هروقت از این چیزا می بینم یاد تو میفتم به خاطر حس زیبایی که به شخص ایلان ماسک و محصولاتش داری 😁 danial_ein

Well, it proves self publicity works.

Rather like a knighthood or peerage in the UK, aren't these gongs and honorifics rather irrelevant nowadays?

When did it change from Man of the Year

Hitler was Time's man of the year in 1938 so ...

For what? Market manipulation?

The 'Time Person of the Year' is 'not necessarily a hero'

This is really silly.

This magazine is useless at this point. Nobody reads this shit anymore.with good reason. Ud think they'd choose a scientist or something

Awesome, a tax dodger 😑. Poor choice TIME

The man of the Year who pays NO TAXES

not sure if 'freeloading' is the right word in the context - proportionate or even higher proportion would be more conducive

🤮

The guy who lost a multi million dollar lawsuit against him and his company for breeding an unhealthy racist work environment , That's your person of the year

I don't care about Warren, he didn't do anything important in the whole year just talk shit on twitter. Why I am not the person of the year if I did the same?

Really? Smdh

You named an internet troll the person of the year?

Why?

So all I have to do to get voted Person of the Year is cheat on my taxes? Neat.

CONTRIBUTING to HUMANITY must not rank during the BIGGEST CRISES IN THE WORLD. RICH KID NOT PAYING TAXES WITH BIGGER TOYS…. WINS! Tells us everything about TIME greedy values. TIME SenWarren

This creep just moved to Texas. I am hoping that Crazy Greg Abbott's complaint about South Africans illegally migrating across the Mexican border means Musk will be deported back to Jo'burg.

👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻
