I don’t think Elon did public insult his workers, he said he doesn’t appreciate workers that don’t work, are they even workers at that point? It’s like if I said I hate when someone steals from me, does that mean I hate you? If so they you are probably a thief. I get you have an opinion of him and that’s fine but how nice and humble a leader is is only a minor factor. What you get when hyper focused on tiny, in my opinion insignificant details and not the big picture is a poor judgement. Forget all the improvements and leaps forward his companies have made because a few times he said good things about himself? Your going to tell me in an interview you have never boasted and pretend none of those leaders you mentioned have ever talked about hard much work it took to get where they are? In actuality those leaders have written entire books on how good of a leader they are and what it takes to be one. I’m still trying to figure out what has irked so many people that Elon did?

This piece of yours is quite revealing. Essentially you have reduced the discussion to: 1. Musk didn't act like an asshole to his employees. 2. Even if he was an asshole to his employees, that is irrelevant. 3. Even if it was relevant, he is right about it, so it doesn't matter. 4. Even if he was wrong and an asshole, his supposed contributions are enough to forgive it. 5. In any case, _I_ would have behaved similarly about certain things (not true), so I'm a hypocrite I guess? Gotta say, my parents don't love me half as much as Elon's fanboys love him. Must be nice to be him.

  I see the opposite actually. Are you saying all of those arguments are incorrect without disputing them? All of the “even if..” stuff doesn’t that only make a stronger case? I wouldn’t call myself a fanboy but it seems like you may definitely be a hater, but why?

    > I wouldn’t call myself a fanboy... Of course you wouldn't.

      Bo, when people act like idiots I like to call it out. But you haven’t explained to me why you dislike, hate, or even it seems dislike people who like him?
