When people tell you who they are, listen.

I find this thread disturbing, and with 0 examples as to why you guys think that about him. Like what are these things he's written and said.

Do you think you look convincing, trying to pretend you're not aware of Elon Musk's reputation?

He's literally the richest person on Earth. It's as if you're pretending you don't know what Santa Claus is about.

I've heard of Santa Claus, but what does he do exactly?

[zo1]

I know who he is, what are you going on about? Why don't you give me some examples of why you think he's a bad person?

> I know who he is, what are you going on about? Why don't you give me some examples of why you think he's a bad person?

at this point there has to be some assumption that the confusion on your side lies in that all the rest of us think demonstrate that he is a "bad person" are things that you think makes him a "good person", so there is probably no point in supplying them

Elon Musk was insulted over the internet by an emergency worker during a deadly rescue of children trapped in a flooded cave, and he responded by accusing the rescue worker of pedophelia. Elon doubled down repeatedly on the claim, such as by later clarifying that by pedophile he meant sex with young Thai boys.

He also hired an investigator to try and find any dirt on the rescue worker. Now he says this is just his way of having fun.

Anyways, you mentioned something about being disturbed. Please do continue.

Let me translate it for Musk fans. He repeatedly tried to ruin a life of a hero, because he felt insulted. Its also fun.

There are literally dozens of examples, but not a single one will dissuade you from your pearl clutching behaviour when your bff billionaire needs defending.
