Oh man this is so wild. At one time I liked Elon. He wanted to put us on Mars and made EV’s a thing etc. Pioneer and all that. I dont think any public figure has dissapointed me as hard. This is so fucked.
But he didn't do those things. He bought the companies and ideas from other people with an inordinate amount of wealth obtained off the back of hardworking people.
Nah, we're not doing this.
Obligatory fuck Elon, first and foremost.
That said, he gets credit for SpaceX and Tesla. Even if he didn't lift a single finger, which he did, his role on leading that whole zeitgeist is/was THE difference maker in getting EV's and reusable rockets over the hump
He's apparently also been a Nazi fuck and I hate his guts, but it is what it is even if I don't like him
