I am not saying he can't say whatever he wants. My initial response was to the notion that any other person as CEO of SpaceX (or Tesla) would also be flawed. Which, obviously. But it is simply not the case that most CEOs are as loud about broadcasting their whims to the world. Tesla is 12th largest public company by market cap, between Broadcom and Novo Nordisk. Those companies have CEOs, but those CEOs do not habitually make controversial statements on Internet fora. It is possible for a person to be flawed, but not to spend effort ensuring wide distribution of those flaws.
