Certain businesses, it's probable/possible Tesla wasn't initially included in the things they intended to allow. Why would they have gone through the public drama if they felt like they were going to be allowed to open based on their private conversations?

It's because Elon is an attention seeking narcissist. Why did he create all the public drama over his cave submarine? It's because he can't help himself.

  He didn't if you go look at the sworn testimony from the trial the diver was the one that initiated that by telling Musk to "Stick His Submarine Where It Hurts".

    Uh huh. And why did he create all the public drama over "funding secured" costing himself $20 million and Tesla a further $20 million? It's because he can't help himself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SIzGdoPu9vs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SIzGdoPu9vs

    One of them is the CEO of a a multi-billion dollar company, the other is a diver. These aren't two children on the playground, who "started" it is not relevant.

    The diver told Musk to stick a submarine up his ass. Once. And then he moved on. Musk then publicly called the diver a pedophile, hired a guy to try and find dirt to prove his statement, and then attempted to have the media publish articles calling the diver a pedophile multiple times. And then tried to insinuate that because the diver hadn't told him to stop or sued him, he must be telling the truth. (So of course the diver sued him the next day.)

  Wow, this account exists just to flamebait in Elon/Tesla-related topics. Check the history. This isn't allowed on HN. Get a new obsession.

    It really doesn't. Don't cry just because someone has a different opinion to you.

    It's 5 year account with 8K karma and other posts besides Tesla if you give anything more than a cursory glance of a few pages, including posts on deep/technical topics. People are allowed to be anti-Elon/Tesla, it does not mean the account is an antagonist. Oh no! Linking to recent and relevant NYT articles on Elon! Flamebait!

      Even if you have other posts beside Tesla, the HN guidelines say "Please don't use Hacker News for political or ideological battle. That destroys the curiosity this site exists for." Although constantly criticizing Tesla may not fall under political or ideological battle, it certainly doesn't hold any curiosity.

        Sure it does. Musk's public deterioration is a fascinating case study of a personality's transition from leader of a well-intentioned start up company into a straight up bully. Both his celebrity and the ugly influence of social media really have corrupted him. He has gone wrong and it's sad to see.

    But attention seeking narcissist seems accurate description of Elon Musk public behavior.
