Eh.. I don't get the sudden hate for Elon, honestly, I don't know what's to dislike. People these days bother me, they want to pull apart everyone else, go try do something awesome yourself.
I’m always surprised when there are still people acting like Elon isn’t just BEGGING to be hated.
I’m still of the opinion he is not doing the work and his success is mostly throwing money at eager (and smart) engineers. That’s a smart thing to do, good call on his part, but it’s almost like he doesn’t know that’s how his companies work.
Maybe he is just great at running tech companies or something but acting like the media/everyday people hate him for no reason is just dishonest.
I guess I can buy that some of the criticism is objectively gratuitous but, humans hating everything another human does, if that human is hated themselves, isn't really anything new.
I guess the real question is, why should anyone expect Elon to have exemption from the hate game that everyone else is apart of?
The Elon hate brigade is way more out of control. It's a festering pile of clickbait, anti-intellectualism / nerd discrimination, misapplied social justice warriorism, financial speculators / incumbent economic cartel misinformation, and an out of control fourth estate with no ethics or conduct.
