TIME magazine has named their ‚Person of the year‘ for 2021 and the announcement didn’t go well with netizens. Tesla and SpaceX CEO, Elon Musk was named TIME magazine’s ‚Person of the Year 2021‘ on Monday, December 13. Twitterati, however, seemed ‚pissed‘ at the announcement stating that Musk is an ‚awful choice‘ for the honor. TIME’s editor-in-chief and CEO Edward Felsenthal said in a statement on Monday that the title ‚Person of the Year‘ is a mark of influence and only a few people had more influence than Elon Musk on life on Earth. „In 2021, Musk emerged not just as the world’s richest person but also as perhaps the richest example of a massive shift in our society,“ he said.
