Elon Musk, do you like him?

[Hobbit XIII]

Do you like Elon Musk?

I do not.
He has become ( maybe always was) a major ego maniac.

OP: I hate politics

Whether I like him or not is as immaterial to me as it should be to everyone. One doesn't select CEOs, heads of NGOs, or government representatives like they're picking a boyfriend unless one happens to be a particular sort of woman that shouldn't be voting in the first place. (Yes, that could hypothetically go both ways, but I've never personally heard a man say they were voting for someone because they were "nice" or, God forbid, "cute")

The only things that matter are objectives like whether DOGE performs its job well. So far, it seems to be doing that. I don't care if we go to Mars, specifically, because it's not a very useful planet, but hooray if he gets Starship working correctly. Bonus points if he puts Troopers aboard them.

Tesla was genius inventor and generator of crazy innovative ideas that nobody had ever thought about.
Edison was exploiter who took advantage of other`s ideas and inventions and was basically just investor and money guy, unscrupulous businessman.
I see Musk as investor not genius who comes up with revolutionary ideas.

But you won't deny that every idea needs funding and good management.
Without a good engine, all these ideas will remain empty.
Musk is a genius manager. He intuitively chooses promising ideas for promotion.

Until he got the idea that it`s best to turn entire country into one of his businesses where everyone should do what he wants.

Yes, like not letting democrats steal public funds, how awful for you.

I get it, the 80% of twitter that got fired were the dead weight democrats, says a lot doesn't it.

Too icky in terms of looks, personality and body movement. Billions of dollars and can’t make oneself look presentable. Truly a waste of money.

[Person]

no, I don't. but, I'm still amazed at how much of a loser he is. like, he is Miles Bron from Glass Onion but real! it's crazy. I mean, looking at some of the stuff he did,

lying about playing PoE for some reason?
disowning your kid for being trans
having beef with an astronaut
during that same beef, having your baby mamas try to reach out to you to get you to pay for child support
naming one of your kids Æ something something
appearing on live television looking high as a kite
turning twitter into the mess it is now
DOGE

the list goes on, really. I'm honestly still quite amazed that he actually did some of this...

Yes I love him. He reinstated Freedom of Speech on the internet alone. Without help.

He certainly has his own agenda. He certainly has his own goals and I probably wont agree with it but thats just how life is. You dont have to agree with everything and still like someone.

It goes even further. I am so thankful he reinstated freedom of speech again I would defend him with my life. And not just him but also Trump and Vance.

You have no idea how I feel since they are in power. Its like I can breathe again and before I just felt oppressed all day long watching the insanity which seized our society.

Men you have no idea what I would do for these guys.

go try and say "cisgender" on twitter.

I had a tiny shred of respect for him a couple years ago and that respect kept waning during that time period....and I lost all respect for him when Karl Jobst dropped a video on him exaggerating his quake achievements and also showing the speedrun that doesn't matter that he had, because he could enter the stage with a full set of gear (different game, I think Diablo 4?). I can tell he is lying, because his story doesn't vary at all. He came across as really weird when he tried to assimilate himself amongst all gamers, and say that he's just like us--he's not.

And still you can. You are just not allowed to harass people. Like you are not allowed to harass people here too. And Steam is pretty free or otherwise I wouldnt post here.

Still this has nothing to do with my post. I love Elon and I would defend him with my life.

And if some people freak out about it or are offended then this is a good day.

[Caldari Ghost]

Yes I have great respect and admiration for Elon Musk. I feel bad for people who don't.

[Grimmz]

i like him politically and i like his scientific advancements..

on a personal level? i do not. he does have a bit of an ego.

but overall i do believe hes doing good things, and i don't have to like him.

edit: i wish more people would see the good deeds and support those. instead of looking at things with their feelings, or basing everything on optics. like, you don't have to like the guy to see that he can do good.
