My god. You guys are starting to sound like the insane anti-vaxxers blaming everything and anything on Bill Gates. It's okay to not make every single discussion

I'm getting tired of the Muskshaming too

Pretty sure they were referring to Trump and Ye, but GP left it open so you have yourself to thank for assuming it is Musk.

  None of the three frankly make sense to me. Musk is winning rather than collapsing, Trump had his collapse two years ago, and Ye is going through something else right now.

I thought they were talking about Donald Trump, but go off I guess.

what’s he ever done to invite this kind of attention to his day to day decisions?

  Being extremely successful is more than enough to get both fans and haters, neither are rational in their emotions towards the person/company/organization.

Like it or not, he's a huge part of the public discussion right now. He used outsized power to take control of a public square, and has let previously disruptive individuals back into that public square. (And Twitter is a public square. Governments, celebrities, charities and more all use it to communicate with people, and news organizations report on the goings-on there.) I disagree with assigning a Narcissistic collapse to Musk though, I don't think he fits the criteria laid out in the article. Kanye West may fit, but his other untreated mental illness makes that difficult to separate from the narcissism that drives some of his actions. trump, of course, fits NPD, but again I don't think he's collapsing right now. putin as well doesn't seem to be collapsing despite what's happening to the russian military in Ukraine. While I wish I didn't have to hear anything else about Musk, he's an incredibly powerful person who can effect massive change in our society. Whether that's right or wrong depends on your personal views, but I personally believe that no one person should have that power unless it has been temporarily granted to them by a government in a time of great need.
