So many angry people here using any excuse they can to shit-talk this guy. It's almost like I'm on Reddit and someone has made the mistaking of expressing a shred of admiration for Elon Musk.

Yeah, had no idea there was this much bitterness and hatred for Dyson of all people!

  You live, you learn. For some people, the discovery that successful and reasonably charismatic entrepeneurs can be ... well, shall we say less than ideal human beings ... comes as quite a shock.

  He's actually quite a bit like Musk. Only without the personality, and his only fans live in public toilets.

  "Of all people"? You seem surprised. I'm surprised you're surprised. His corporation has a track record of closing factories in the UK and moving manufacturing abroad, while actively avoiding tax. Of all people? Really?

    Neither of these things out of the ordinary for most business owners or comedians or sports people etc!

      Ehm... exactly. Dyson is no different. Plenty of them get exactly the same sort of vilification for similar actions.

I'm guessing you don't live in a country whose politics he manipulates and whose tax he avoids.

  Before going after individuals like Dyson in that regard, deal with institutions like the City of London Corporation and BoE first [1]. [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=np_ylvc8Zj8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=np_ylvc8Zj8

I was on Elon's side until that Texas move. (I believe this money saving move is just a start. Elon and his delicate ego, along with that overpriced stock (I let that slide for years because I was a fan boy.) It's weird how worship pans out. I was giving him the benefit of doubt too much. Guess what--going to Mars is a childish dream, and feel it's just another tax dodge. His quote today is "I will be paying more tax than anyone in history" Yea--because you know tax rates are going to rise. You know your overpriced stock will drop to a third, or maybe less than $100 of what it is now eventually. Get out while you can slick? Date another techno singer? Let the fools holding your stock get wiped out. I'm glad people are seeing these wealthy parasites for what they are. As to Dyson--don't get me started. Granted I only knew him, until today, for that rediculious vacuum that I see around twin with "free" signs, and those narcisstic tv commercials.
