I'll defend him, he's done great work at SpaceX and Tesla, and I hope he can somehow accept that he's failed at Twitter/X and move back to doing great work at Tesla/SpaceX. I don't expect it to happen anytime soon, he's got too much money, but people can do great things and not necessarily have admirable character overall or only have admirable traits in certain contexts.
Edit: I'm ejecting this thread, Musk discourse is so divorced from rational conversation, the hatred (and admiration) is too overpowering for too many.

- cornercasechase 3y ago> you do realize that most of the world doesnt live in cities, and therefore has has to own a car You do realize that most of the people in the world do not own cars and it would be an ecological disaster if they transitioned to owning them.
- Timon3 3y ago> you do realize that most of the world doesnt live in cities, and therefore has has to own a car ... right? You do realise that, literally, most of the world lives in cities? "Mid-2023 approximately 4.6 of the more than 8 billion people worldwide lived in towns or cities. This represents 57% of the global population. By 2030 this figure is set to reach 60%." https://www.destatis.de/EN/Themes/Countries-Regions/International-Statistics/Data-Topic/Population-Labour-Social-Issues/DemographyMigration/UrbanPopulation.html#:~:text=International%20statistics%20The%20largest%20cities%20worldwide%202023&text=Mid%2D2023%20approximately%204.6%20of,is%20set%20to%20reach%2060%25 https://www.destatis.de/EN/Themes/Countries-Regions/Internat....
- misiti3780 3y agoOK fine, i knew it was around that number, but it's still 40% which is billions of people. you get my point.
- Timon3 3y agoThen what is your issue with GPs statement? We have a car culture in many places where it isn't necessary. As I've shown, more and more people will move to cities. Why is it good to further entrench car culture?
