Better late then never! Unless you're trying to "GET TO DA CHOPPAAAA!" that is haha
Thanks for reading it, and I am really glad to hear you found it funny and informative. If I can do one of those, I'm pretty happy. If I get both then I consider it a success :)

Arnold was once an all-American legend. Bodybuilder, movie star, California governor. He appeared in action movies and AC/DC music videos alike. Politically conservative, he was even featured in Milton Friedman's Free to Choose on PBS (see here: https://youtu.be/KKbHA76-Hi0?feature=shared). But weirdly, he really turned hard against Trump. Another fun article, thanks for sharing!
I have not seen that interview! I'll definitely check it out; thank you for the links :)
And Arnie was indeed an icon. I still love the guy's movies. (Total Recall, Predator, Terminator... all great!), but he is so of touch and TDS-stricken that he really earned this Harvey at this point :(
I am prevented by my NDA with the Academy from speaking too much on my personal preferences... but I will divulge that I too hope a Harvey remains one honor the Dogefather does *not* receive.
But, rest assured, should Elon stop fighting the good fight and villainously turn against the ideals of liberty, then I shall be sure to add him to the list of illustrious candidates! Unless my car or my brainchip won't let me :/
I will look into this fellow! Those are certainly two acronyms I don't like haha. Speaking of which, Yaccarino seems like a horrible hire as well, and I loathe the Orwellian "Speech not Reach" mantra.
As I explain in greater length in my excellent (I'm biased haha) "Enlightightened Gatekeeper" articles, I still think Musk has done immense good in the fight against Woke Tyranny, up to and including his recent support of Matt Walsh's documentary.
Now, could the ol' Doge be a Satanic, transhumanist, globalist Archon and actual Knight of Baphomet pushing NASA's heliocentric deceptions and hellbent on subjugating humanity in an eternal Harlan Ellison-esque cybernetic hellscape? Sure. And if so, he'll likely win a Harvey.
But, could he also just be an imperfect dude with a thing for tech who created/came into a great deal of wealth and influence, and is trying to do his best on behalf of some relatively sound principles concerning human flourishing, futurism, and a free society while wrestling with dynastic elites and the principalies of this world in a geo-corpo-political game of a magnitude, gravity, and complexity that neither I--nor all the people clamoring for him to be either Satan or Savior--can even begin to fathom, all while dealing with the quotidian trials and tribulations that, alone, prove more than sufficient to occupy every waking moment of life for most of us? Sure. And if so, he will likely be deprived of the opportunity to take home a Harvey : )
I’m late to the reading party, but this was funny … and informative … af

Also, did you see Arnold's interview on Ryan Holiday's Daily Stoic? https://youtu.be/kYbrhz7xjjc?feature=shared

Hoping Elon Musk doesn’t turn out to be a candidate.

Check out his new hire, Joe Benarroch, formerly of the WEF & NBC. Not promising.
