This rubs me the wrong way, but it's a biased feeling solely because of Elon Musk. I feel like if Musk was ousted from both Tesla and SpaceX these companies would be less tainted. Elon is becoming like Howard Hughes: completely nuts. The nonsense he's spouting and lies he's selling is the complete antithesis to what a virtuous scientist or engineer should strive for, unfortunately he's just a nasty businessman.
I can't quite recall where my irritation with him began: the horrendous apocalypse cybertruck, a podcast with Joe Rogan where his laughs seemed totally fake and creepy, his musings with Kanye, defending Amber Heard, calling someone a pedo while having millions of followers, manipulation the market, full self-driving false promises, claiming he founded Tesla, pretending Neuralink's latest demo was novel, Las Vegas' ridiculous redundant tunnel, the list goes on. I don't like the guy any more.
- robertlagrant 5y agoSounds as though you've gone out of your way to memorise his flaws (the first 3 and last 1 not being flaws, really).
- CynicusRex 5y agoI said I was biased. Anyway, I just hoped he was a Tesla, but he's just another Edison. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KqyXvMrQDk8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KqyXvMrQDk8.
- robertlagrant 5y agoYeah I was commenting on the things you listed as causing your bias.
