I used to be neutral or slightly positive about Musk but this year really changed my view on him. He's a pathological liar, attention-seeker, vengeful narcissist, obsessed about his public image who's unable to handle criticism.

I wonder if he's related to Trump.

I guess we all have these things in side of us and given the wrong circumstances people let them out. I am definitely compassionate towards Musk, as I for myself have made the experience that stress can bring out very negative sides within you, if you don't stay aware and relaxed to not get carried away of such feelings. It cannot be an apology and hopefully Musk recognizes that it is not his true self acting but stress and anxiety projected on others.

  I'd find that argument more compelling if Musk hadn't done this of his own volition and for great personal benefit at the expense of others.

Why would anyone do what he's doing? There is no way to be be in the public eye and manage this and be total. He grew up outside the US is in the cold war being told every day that a dispute between countries he didn't live in would wipe the world clean. Assange grew up in the same hacker environment. Different tracks for sure. The world gave a smart kid nothing but terror. He said he'll fix it AND leave at the same time. A mix of PTSD, pathalogical demand avoidance, giftedness and opportunity. No one that had a brain would want the guys job. I'm not using it as an excuse, he's not a savior. He is doing neat shit, but he wants an unreal hat trick and is just the same as the rest of us on this rock. Even if/when he leaves, it'll all still be with him. I think his cars are fun and rockets are cool, but if I think about the human side... it's more than a bit mad.
