Stop making stupid people famous!
This behaviour isn't because he's famous it's because he's incredibly wealthy and no one has ever told him no.
While this is of course true, to me part of saying him no is not giving him media attention. If his stunts didn't have the publicity they do, he might not actually do them. If people stopped caring about whatever shit he writes on Twitter then he wouldn't have a power to destroy Starlink's government deal or affect stock values.
