I felt this was a cope, but the more I think about it the more willing I am to entertain the theory that this whole thing is some shitpost by a ambitious troll, who somehow duped Rubin and Elon into playing along. The whole thing feels less like a failed attempt at comedy and more like an active attempt to be as unfunny as possible. Adding on is the Bill Maher quote, "Brilliant" (speaking of the Creator's past work on HBO), and that as far as I'm aware we don't even know who the creator is. It feels like a meta commentary on Birchum.
