no one respects people who try to buy accolades, not just because it's undeserved, but because the person must be an idiot if they think no one will notice the accolades are fake and bought. it inspires contempt in multiple ways, including making the person seem delusional -- like when troons demand that everyone entertain their delusion of being a sex they weren't born as. elon is the troon equivalent of a pro gamer. certainly doesn't help that he talks shit about american labor not "working hard enough" while he's hiring foreign scabs out of pure greed. all around contemptible individual.
