Hopefully. Elon never felt like a racist to me plus he’s been my hero for a very long time so I hope I don’t have to start disliking him.

  Heroes don't generally make libelous pedo accusations against people who are trying to do good things.

    I’m willing to overlook all that. My worldview gives self made successful men a LOT of leeway before I care.

      That's a pretty broken philosophy.

    Lots of people seem to want to see Elon (or any famous person) as either a hero or a villain, but the reality is that most people are a bit of both. They do both good and bad. I appreciate Musk for making electric cars sexy, making space flight cheaper and less wasteful, and making lots of solar panels. I don't like him picking stupid internet fights or occasionally going mad with power. It's a mix.

      90% of the stupid stuff that Elon has done (that we know about) comes from his interactions on the toxic social media platform, Twitter. He’d be better off deleting his Twitter account and moving to Mastodon. Or just off social media altogether.
