Yeah I wonder if there really is this supposed demographic of people that loved him and dislike him now. I think people who knew much about him either never liked him or have hitched their political leanings to his and gone along for the ride.

I used to have a lot of respect for the quiet and reserved Elon who put rockets into space and had an interesting car company. Now's he's spreading misinformation about mass shootings where children died and just being unbelievably awful and toxic. Turns out he's an absolutely horrible person all the way down. He should have just stayed quiet and built his companies.

It was the road tiles and the roof tiles for me. I did not know about him before hearing about those.

I remember when Tesla started out, before him. I used to use their car as an answer to smug Hummer owners. Then suddenly I hear that this Musk dude "founded" Tesla, but the earliest articles never mentioned a founder, just a bunch of engineers doing cool stuff.

And then one day my wife shows me this article of this guy who's got this cool idea of roof shingles with little tiny inefficient solar sensors in it, like that was going to accomplish something, and then the same guy, he wants to make these road shingles with hard glass to get all scratched up, and that's gonna HOLY FUCK THIS GUY IS A FUCKIN IDIOT

And ever since all these people acting like he's this... I swear they got sold on billionaires as useful strictly on the strength of this guy's bad ideas.

I might be overindulging after work a wee bit
