How so? Specifically?

Cause Musk is actively trying to destroy democracy and kill poor people.

Also different user. His life's work had been to create the most evil corporation the world has ever seen. The largest monopoly. It's still allowed to run and controls entire governments all around the world. Most companies, schools and government functions of many countries are completely tied to Microsoft cloud and their software and have no choice. This has essentially halted all technical progress and research on many fields because the results can't be productised. The loss and corruption is endless.

It's been going on and ramping up for over forty years. It's still going on.

Forty years is a good "why" for why musk is nothing compared to this evil.

Is there any reputable journalist that has echoed this take? It sounds very stretched. Monopolization on Word is one thing, but I’ve heard of some governments finally getting fed up and moving to open source.

I won’t deny Microsoft has done bad shit. I’m currently boycotting them for their assistance to Israel. But “most evil corporation” is a gigantically high bar in the world we live in.

Different user: I don't think it's worth arguing about which is "more evil", especially at this billionaire level of antisocial behavior. What's the point? They're both intolerable, causing death for profit.
