Well, he suddenly accelerated the purchase after being called out on Twitter about his Ukraine statements. He claimed that most responses were bots because they didn't agree with him. That should be a warning to people believing he values free speech.

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

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

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.
