I used to feel the same way about Musk but as time has gone by I don't think he is one of the bad guys. Some of the things (such as stealing from the poor to help the rich buy his cars) only happens because governments love giving him money. He has been openly supportive of the Canadian Truckers. The things I didn't like about him are related more to government stupidity. I actually hope that he does make a difference at Twitter (Note I don't have a Twitter account).
As a general: no one, no one, can become this rich without appeasement of "them". No one. Not even Warren Buffett.
Watch a video of a former Dutch banker - and he was not even that rich. The part that stuck in my mind was that as he became successful in finance, "they" noticed him and contacted him! His life had not been the same since.
My older son thinks he is a "genius" I know plenty of men personally who are much brighter then he is but obviously weren't selected to play a role in this school play. I have been permanently banned from twitter so maybe i can complain to him.
Thank you- some sense! I am so sick of Musk as saviour. He’s like Fauci for libertarians. He says some things that sound cool- sure. But how ya living? He doesn’t hide his agenda. He probably wants data for more AI training. Its a sad reflection of where we are: people are so starved for a noble leader that “sayin’ some stuff” is enough to dive into fanboy syndrome. Or had it always been like that and I wasn’t paying attention? Could be.
Yes! For me, the ‘tell’ was an old picture of him with a lot less hair on his head twenty years ago. Like Biden, he did something about his baldness. Ya cannot be a glib globalist with half a head of hair. You must go full bald (Bezos, Schwab) or go get plugs. The second clue was his naming one of his kids a series of numbers. (Not anything normal like Moon Unit or Dweezil, like Frank Zappa, he of happy memory.)
Why do people cheer him on? It all makes me twice as suspicious.
Yes! So nice to hear another person who is not mesmerized by Musk!

indeed, when your 'free speech' relies on a billionaire, you already lost.
I lurve the word "Murkaren" - noice!

Your commentary is so bang on and gave me a good chuckle.

He wants to go to Mars and that's a great idea.
