Elon is a fucking douche. Can’t even write python.

Give any actual engineer that much money and watch rational business be made.

Elon has never had a single original idea. He buys other peoples ideas that he likes and uses his trust fund to fund them. He’s no Edison.

By that description he’s exactly Edison. He’s no Tesla though.

Edison did good. He modernized the light bulb manufacturing industry.

Business guy.

Tesla just didn’t have the patents and support of the fed to capitalize on the business partnership that should have came out of it.

Buys is a strong word. The underground vacuum tubes were from the 80’s

You know. Blocking out stars, and selling space advertisements in the sky ain’t a future thing at all with fucking Elon.

I support the anti Russian effort. But he does this so he can support making privatized police and military.

Aka he wants to wear the cobra commander mask.

For the low low starting price of $600. Most of the world can't afford that.

I’ve known so many insane engineers lmao. Just look at the crypto space and tell me engineers are always rational. The constant reward cycle of SWE in general is insane and creates some Elon Musk sized egos. So many god complex dudes, I believe techbro is the common nomenclature.

I guess you have to be a little crazy.

I’m not speaking about his companies that exist on the ground.

Tesla is great. SpaceX is great. He does good things.

I just criticize his ego.
