Who in this thread said "we wouldn't have EVs without Musk"?
To say that the idea of one person changing the world has been discredited is so wildly wrong I don't even know where to start. We can't neglect the background but we can't neglect individuals and the choices they make either.
What we can say is that Musk presided over the growth of a company that has sold 2 million EVs. We can't say "someone else would have done that if he had never been born," which is what you said. Unreal.

It’s pretty easy to find people stating a varient of this idea in sibling threads. > To say that the idea of one person changing the world has been discredited is so wildly wrong I don't even know where to start. You could start by actually reading what I said, rather than making up for yourself and then arguing against that. Everything you said here is unrelated to my point, and directly countermanded by my actual words.
