He called one specific british man living in a specific part of Thailand a paedophile
Are you saying it's ok to call someone you're arguing with on the internet a pedophile with no evidence, if it's just one British person living in Thailand? What point are you making?

Edit: Looking at your post history, do you own a lot of SpaceX and Tesla stock? You do a lot of name calling to defend Elon, so your opinion defending one of the world's richest guys doesn't seem altruistic.

Addressing your edit:

1. I have not called anyone names. That is also false.

2. All people deserve defending from untrue statements about them regardless of how wealthy they are, I'm not sure why anyone would think otherwise.

> And then he calls the people who call him out on it pedophiles.

That your statement was inaccurate.

It wasn't their statement, it was mine, and your response concedes that Musk did exactly that.

I just can't wrap my head around this. How can you both concede the behavior and be perfectly fine with and defend it?
