It’s easy to forget that Musk was seen as an “IRL” iron man not that long ago. He was buying tech companies, taking credit for their accomplishments, and making seemingly credible promises of colonizing Mars in the near future.
It all went to shit with Twitter. Musk exposed himself as a guy born with the silverest of silver spoons who failed upward all his life on the backs of the work of his betters who he never paid properly. That’s where all the extra money came from.
ehh, he exposed himself earlier. I was a huge fan until the whole "accusing the diver of being a pedo because of how he looked", and from there Musk went downhill, quickly.
Glad someone else remembers this, all because ppl didn't like his "personal mini sub for every one of the trapped children" idea...meanwhile the guy he insulted literally saved every single one of them one by one.
There actually were brave men who saved the kids for real, none of which were involved in any way with the childish Musk name calling BS. Those men's names are John Volanthen, Richard Stanton, Jason Mallinson, Chris Jewell, Richard Harris, and Craig Challen and they are heros and they don't deserve to have their bravery credited to anyone else no matter how childish some random billionaire is.
