If you're going to have an evil overlord, at least have an entertaining one who makes no bones about who and what he is, rather than a self-congratulating orifice who keeps maintaining that he's doing us all a favor.

Yeah I always considered Baal as a self aware Gould.

Most of em clearly drink thier old koolaid

In his eyes im sure he genuinely believes that to a degree. However where he dun goofed is a trap many intelligent folk fall into: underestimating other people. Plus he's too greedy lol

How dare you insult the majestic glider!

[–] Fermion@feddit.nl 8 points 4 months ago (1 children)

It's the Tel'tak transport ship.

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

Ah, it is.

Still looks way nicer and serves a practice purpose by comparison.

Lol, that cybertruck tent rendering tesla put out looks nothing like the actual $3,000 one they sell:

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 26 points 4 months ago

I like the episode where he cloned himself a bunch of times. He also liked that episode.

[–] dumbass@leminal.space 17 points 4 months ago (2 children)

So a go'ould would make him likeable?

[–] billyhopscotch@midwest.social 32 points 4 months ago

It wouldn't make him less likeable, that's for sure.

[–] theyllneverfindmehere@lemmy.world 17 points 4 months ago

Honestly, maybe.

RIP Cliff Simon

The wrong evil guy died.

[–] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 8 points 4 months ago

not likable would be flattering for Elon. He summons a very strong urge to vomit.

[–] TurboHarbinger@feddit.cl 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Lol I always thought of Ba'al like a pest you cant get rid of.

[–] lengau@midwest.social 4 points 4 months ago

Another common feature!

Ba'al: ✅️Hot

Elon: ❌️Not

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 3 points 1 week ago

baal also later recognized hes not a real god, which the other system lord believed in thier own bs, musk believes in his own bs with his eugenics fetish

[–] singletona@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

In the alt-U Ba'al created, he also didn't do pointless stupid cruelty, and generally seemed competent.

[–] klu9@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

Another difference:

Ba’al: ✅Brainworm

Elon: ❌️Brainworm (see RFK Jr instead)
