I like Elon more before it all went to his head. Seems to think he is the world's messiah now or something. Kind of lost a lot of respect towards him of late. The stuff he says is increasingly childish and dangerous and his meddling in international politics, especially around Ukraine, is getting dangerous.

It's getting dangerous because he *checks notes* wants Ukraine to give up the areas taken so less people die.
How horrible.

Weird though, I doubt you have issues with all the famous people telling Ukraine to keep fighting though.

I get that, thing is in this world we have people that are say experts at making music, or movies, or electric cars and space ships giving opinions on stuff that is very far out of their area of expertise and actually swaying public opinion. I agree sometimes it ends up being good when you have bad politicians and the world is currently facing a bit of a dry patch in terms of great leadership. However it can backfire in a big way. I just think Elon should stick to the stuff he is good at, and cut back on commenting on stuff he is really not that qualified to talk on. That's me though. Don't get me wrong, I love what Elon has done for electric vehicles, the space race, etc. I just think the recent Ukraine thing. His weird way of handling this Twitter deal, and going all the way back to calling a heroic cave diver a pedo are just unnecessary. Even Grimes commented (while defending Elon) that he can be childish on twitter. He has had to delete some sexist stuff too in the past. Why? If he manages to offend enough people it could also poison his existing companies which I really don't want to see.

I don't know. To me it's become apparent for quite a long time now that 'experts' are people who wing it for a living. Like world leaders or politicians.... even with qualifications thry have no idea what they are doing and just trying to grt by as everyone else. I would imagine them to rely on advice from other people as well to get their job done.
Like science, scientists aren't as professional as people would like. Don't get me wrong there are people thst are passionate about their jobs, but it's rare. In all professions.

Speaking is a typical way of offending people.
You can make people feel loved and wanted, and in the same sentence offend all BLM supporters.

Stop caring about what other people think.

So will you. You'll never be as wealthy as Elon Musk. How does that make you feel?

Common the dude's a conman who swindles investors out of big bucks for crazy out of this world promises which never happens. He made a lot of his wealth the more respected way with paypal but damn. His fans are insufferable.

You do realize that most of us couldn't give a fuk about Musk and are definitely not "fans".

We just enjoy all the liberal tears and meltdowns caused by his Twitter takeover. He's just a convenient tool...

The best part of being able to see what people really think is that we'll be able to see what people really think, and ignore them.
