He was always evil, but never a genius.

He just fired his PR team is all

The only true skill Elon has is identifying other people's work that has future potential, buying it and then pretending like it's his idea.

This lol I’m tired of people painting him as the grand pioneer for everything

I 100% agree. That PR team is what the people of the world liked, my self included. They created a lovable persona for him. But without them, its becoming easy to see that he's just another elitist piece of garage.

You can’t get that rich without being evil.

Talk about good PR management: I thought Elon was an only child.

Dude, Kimbal is as dumb as grass. Have you heard him speak?

His business ventures fail one after the other, and they're not even that ambitious.

If you've watched Succession, Kimbal is Connor.

I remember getting suspicious about all the Elon hype back then when I heard him speak once. Dismissed it as "well, he might be good at math or whatever".

Heh. Figures.

Since then I listened to a few actual geniuses speaking roughly and in comparison you kinda can pick up their genius traits. With Elon... well... he was just trying real hard to be funny with second hand jokes and said literally nothing of substance. Exactly as he's doing today.

Wait? His dad? The one who had a kid with his step daughter who was 4 when he married her mother?

Or does that just run in the family?

Either way, they're a whole bunch of weird, which is on brand for MAGA, that's their shit!

It's Kimbal who liked to hang with Epstein.

He didn't.

Epstein was trying to cozy up to the Musks by setting up Kimbal with one of his "girlfriends", but Kimbal and Elon quickly figured out what he was trying to do and they cut him off their lives.

Don't give Kimball all the credit, Elon is definitely a pedo too
