He was with Grimes for years. If woke was a turn off for him, would he have been with Grimes for years let alone had children with her?
I think it’s either that he’s upset with Grimes for leaving him and is being anti-woke in response OR he’s up to something else that’s yet to be revealed. I don’t think this virtue signaling matters to getting state legislatures to allow direct Tesla sales. Maybe it does in his mind?
- robonerd 4y agoNot everybody expects their partner to share their political beliefs. There is a reason we let married men and women vote independently for themselves.
- dd36 4y agoAbsolutely. What's more likely? Elon is putting on a show to accomplish some goal or Elon hates what Grimes stands for?
- robonerd 4y agoOnly he knows what he really believes. My point is merely that somebody can disagree with their spouse's politics without hating them for it.
- dd36 4y agoI agree with your point. I also don’t think Elon is as anti-woke as he appears to many to be.
- saurik 4y ago(Maybe-also? <- Just adding stuff, but am unsure if we agree or not as we are both just adding stuff I think ;P.) FWIW, 1) it was never clear that Grimes actually truly "stands for" anything, and 2) she did leave him, so clearly something didn't work out ;P. https://www.forbes.com/sites/danidiplacido/2021/10/03/following-her-split-with-billionaire-elon-musk-grimes-poses-with-the-communist-manifesto/ https://www.forbes.com/sites/danidiplacido/2021/10/03/follow...
- dd36 4y agoYeah, so it could be a response to her leaving him. She may have left him because of it. I imagine Elon isn't the easiest of romantic/parenting partners given his work ethic.

- jrochkind1 4y agoHow do i know what's a "turn off" for anyone, or what motivates relationships. Plenty of mysterious and contradictory and/or dysfunctional relationships in the world. Maybe that's part of why they broke up? Making theories about the private lives of celebrities and what they demonstrate about what they really are like or are motivated by... seems pretty much like fanfic to me. Fun game if you're into it, but I wouldn't base my worldview on it.
- dd36 4y agoI base my entire world view on it.
