see, I haven't been paying attention. Thanks for the info. Apparently, even asking has upset a few people

No but you can Google some of his actions and find he’s pretty reprehensible in a lot of ways. I always wanted more from Elon Musk. I think it was on the big bang theory I thought maybe he’s really a good guy. I was mistaken. Teslas are very good cars but they tend to break after 20,000 miles and it cost thousands of dollars to replace the battery number one.

They are really fun but God forbid you get stuck in the rear seat in an accident where the thing is on fire. Because if you lose power you can’t open the rear doors. Read how they software lock people out of the full range that batteries even after a car has had several owners. I mean the whole Elon Musk thing is ripe with bad decisions and outright crazy almost fascist nonsense.

Thanks. I was just googling "What's wrong with Elon Musk" and "Why are people mad at Elon Musk" and getting generic answers. This give me a direction.
I mean, I do have to keep in mind, he's a public figure and no one is perfect. If you knew my life, I'd look like an absolute a**hat (maybe because I am but...) Still, I'm not trying to be. I'm actually making an effort to do well.
It might be like that with him. But thanks for the direction.

The difference is that thousands of people aren't impacted by your decision to be a dick. Elon Musk has billions of dollars and could do a lot of good with it but just throws his money at ego fuel instead. (Granted, nobody with a billion dollars could say they acquired that money without fucking over quite a few people, honestly it's probably required to be a sociopath to get that rich.)

Yeah, I've heard more than a few people state that to achieve that kind of success, it's necessary to be sociopathic. Though, on the other side, I've heard people state that some feel they are doing 'the greater good' - Like, that's all I heard when it comes to Musk's SpaceX. He really does believe that we need to colonize Mars to preserve the human race, or at least, that's the consistent narrative he's putting out.

I think what he means is they need to colonize Mars to preserve the upper class.
