His actions show that he considers calling someone a child molester to be acceptable speech so it isn't too much to think that much more polite speech he would not have an issue with.

That person was not a boss or coworker, he was a stranger who had insulted him. It's completely wild how over the past twelve months the anti-Musk people have somehow eclipsed the pro-Musk people in their monomania and inability to step back and objectively consider any situation.

  > It's completely wild how over the past twelve months the anti-Musk people have somehow eclipsed the pro-Musk people in their monomania He's a perpetually online guy, it was bound to happen. If he shut up every now and then it would help. If he realized he can't derive unified theories of social behavior through logic untainted by the real world and then proudly announce them to universal acclaim, he could probably go back to the widely enjoyed persona of a year or two ago where the only die hard haters were Boeing stock holders. > objectively consider any situation hHaha, ok, I look forward to the objective discussion of the relative merits of calling someone a "pedo". Super objective!

    > If he realized he can't derive unified theories of social behavior through logic untainted by the real world This isn't at the root of what we're discussing here. That would be like applying Postel's law to natural language, confirmed by your own experience of receiving maybe a few passing "death threats" per month while bantering, while brushing aside the predicament of someone who receives ongoing death threats from a persistent stalker. Rather, this topic just seems to be basic hypocrisy. If one cannot stomach a critique written in good faith to make one's company better, it's utterly disingenuous to invoke appeals to free speech elsewhere.
