It’s probably because of his autism, his brain works completely differently than most people and that’s probably why people don’t understand him nor his actions or beliefs.
He has never been officially diagnosed with autism. He just claims he has Asperger’s (no longer an official diagnosis) and uses it as an excuse to do horrible things.
And autism does not excuse the horrible things he says and does.
Too be fair, as a person on the spectrum with very good track record of recognizing other neurodivergents on the spot.
Elon absolutely reads and acts as a neurodivergent and within that group mostly resembles autism.
Having said that, to wield that like an excuse his vile and idiotic behavior is simply wrong.
Everyone on the spectrum is unique, has some great gifts and some deeper flaws. I bet there are intelligent stuff hes good at but i dont believe for second he has what it takes to be a leader of any kind. He’d probably be better suited as an valued assistant to a real expert that knows what task/responsibilities to give and not give to him.
When i look at musk i see a broken person sick with
Addiction of money and power.
The majority of autists are very progressives we have huge ties to the roots of the lgbt movement. Many of us have an inherent desire for fairness and equality. But Elon Musk has gone so deep in the rabbithole of finding survival within egocentrism he is beyond saving, no longer having the ability to see the world around it as it is.
Ketamine is psychedelic, those tend to aid the mind into seeing their own flaws and become the better version of themselves. I find it really telling that it does not seem to work on Elon and almost proof that he is actively focused about not coming to terms with reality and refusing to work on hisself. Possibly because he scared shitless that he might feel a guilt from his conscience if he does. Easier to just pay your problems away and hope the atheist are right.
Also, he has SO many Asperger’s traits I knew he had it even before he said it. While Asperger’s is not an official diagnosis anymore - it’s still a part of the autism spectrum, on the high functioning side.
I know Jewish people are white, lmao.
I actually don’t know any instances of this being the case, I would need more context.
Maybe is he just wrong or is wrongly extrapolating something to all Jewish people, but ngl, I was expecting something worse when you said he does horrible stuff. Also, fun fact, there is not a single person who is perfect and I never said Elon is. But I do think (like actually believe) he’s more good than bad. And I often feel like a lot of people think he’s more bad than good for some reason.
No, it’s not on the autism spectrum because it isn’t a thing. It isn’t real.
And unless you have some medical expertise in the area, you deciding he has autism based on traits you think autistic people have is just bigoted against people with autism. Because that is not in any way in your wheelhouse.
Do you also decide on whether or not someone is gay based on ‘gay traits?’
What attributes do all autistic people share and no neurotypical people have so that you can tell for sure someone is autistic through those attributes?
I think I’m on the autistic spectrum tho not officially diagnosed.
Do you also decide on whether or not someone is gay based on ‘gay traits?’
Actually yes. If you feel attracted to same sex people - I think it’s fairly safe to assume you are gay or bisexual.
No. Not real. It is no longer a diagnosis. That means it is not real. Your link even says it “formerly described” a disorder. Do you know what “formerly” means?
And your self-diagnosis is also meaningless. Even psychiatrists do not self-diagnose.
Well, I do believe I have ADHD, OCD, maybe autism, Schizoid PD (NOT schizophrenia) maybe more.
So yes. I very much so believe it has something to do with it.
If we change the name of something or the category it belongs to that doesn’t mean he underlying thing doesn’t exist.
Also, I know what formerly means.
Autism is a spectrum. And you quite obviously don’t understand Elon nor his long term goals and motivations. You proved my point.
I’m actually really curious why a lot of people can not see what Elon wants and what his deal is.
Wait? Do you like actually believe he doesn’t care about humanity and getting to mars and lowering the chances of human extinction and advancing technology to make our lives better and finding out the secrets of the universe and he’s just doing this for money? Do you really think he is motivated by MONEY? Cmon, bruh.
I think you REALLY REALLY do not understand what his deal is. Like, I have a feeling you can’t even imagine what he’s thinking about.
If you feel dirty, sorry. I do, however genuinely believe you and a lot of other people do not fully understand Elon and his motivations and thought process (if at all).
There are many, many organizations that could benefit from his billions. You brought up his (undiagnosed) autism. How much has he given to autism charities?
Have you ever had a thought that allocating his money may have less of a long term positive impact if he just donated it to various charities instead of allocating it towards more long term goals? Not saying it would or wouldn’t, but did you even consider that?
What does this have to do with sociopathy? And yes, I believe just about every mental disorder is a spectrum. (Mostly talking about the spectrum of severity here)
I absolutely believe he is on the spectrum, without a doubt. I also don’t get what you mean by him being cruel? Like how?? I’m like (no joke) honestly baffled.

What horrible things?
Also, he has SO many Asperger’s traits I knew he had it even before he said it. While Asperger’s is not an official diagnosis anymore - it’s still a part of the autism spectrum, on the high functioning side.
Oh, I’m sorry, you asked what horrible things. Let’s start with this-
I don’t even know what this is about ngl.
If you read it, it’s about Elon saying that it is true that Jews oppress white people. (Jews are white, FYI.)
I know Jewish people are white, lmao. I actually don’t know any instances of this being the case, I would need more context. Maybe is he just wrong or is wrongly extrapolating something to all Jewish people, but ngl, I was expecting something worse when you said he does horrible stuff. Also, fun fact, there is not a single person who is perfect and I never said Elon is. But I do think (like actually believe) he’s more good than bad. And I often feel like a lot of people think he’s more bad than good for some reason.
He’s really obviously being a bigot. For fuck’s sake.
And do you know Jews are white? Because you’re defending a guy saying it’s true that they aren’t.
But sure, being a bigot isn’t bad… what the fuck is wrong with you?
Jews are obvious white. If he says they are not white - he is wrong. Why do you think he’s a bigot? (If you have any example on top of your head)
No, it’s not on the autism spectrum because it isn’t a thing. It isn’t real.
And unless you have some medical expertise in the area, you deciding he has autism based on traits you think autistic people have is just bigoted against people with autism. Because that is not in any way in your wheelhouse.
Do you also decide on whether or not someone is gay based on ‘gay traits?’
Well, yeah. It’s often real easy to tell.
Is it now? Is it often “real easy to tell” if someone is gay too? How about Jewish?
Yes, often.
Do tell us all how it is “often” easy to tell if someone is gay or Jewish.
I’ve got eyes and ears.
It doesn’t work like that. Autism has physical attributes
What attributes do all autistic people share and no neurotypical people have so that you can tell for sure someone is autistic through those attributes?
I can’t, machines can. Nobody knows for sure why
It’s not real???
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asperger_syndrome
I think I’m on the autistic spectrum tho not officially diagnosed.
No. Not real. It is no longer a diagnosis. That means it is not real. Your link even says it “formerly described” a disorder. Do you know what “formerly” means?
And your self-diagnosis is also meaningless. Even psychiatrists do not self-diagnose.
that is not what that means and the word “formerly” has nothing to do with it and you’re kinda being an asshole
So doctors diagnose people with a diagnosis that is no longer used in the DSM to diagnose people? That is what you’re saying?
Those doctors are committing malpractice.
Please give me their names so that I can report them to their medical boards.
You are absolutely wrong it’s 100% real it just got merged into the ASD (Autism spectrum disorder). Please do research.
You guys might really be autistic based on how pedantic this thread has become.
it’s not us being pedantic, it’s reality. In reality, a thing can be redesignated and not be made unreal by the act. Sorry! It’s inconvenient I know.
Very cool based answer to any truth finding debate bro thanks
Well, I do believe I have ADHD, OCD, maybe autism, Schizoid PD (NOT schizophrenia) maybe more. So yes. I very much so believe it has something to do with it.
I see, you don’t know what “formerly” means.
i see you don’t know what most of the words in this thread mean
If we change the name of something or the category it belongs to that doesn’t mean he underlying thing doesn’t exist. Also, I know what formerly means.
I don’t think we need to tarnish autistic people with whatever the fuck is going on in Elon’s oddly shaped head.
Autism is a spectrum. And you quite obviously don’t understand Elon nor his long term goals and motivations. You proved my point. I’m actually really curious why a lot of people can not see what Elon wants and what his deal is.
He’s a thin-skinned, narcissistic shyster who’s only goal for humanity is to line his pockets.
What is there to understand?
Do you think someone who is only chasing money would buy Twitter? I think not.
Wait? Do you like actually believe he doesn’t care about humanity and getting to mars and lowering the chances of human extinction and advancing technology to make our lives better and finding out the secrets of the universe and he’s just doing this for money? Do you really think he is motivated by MONEY? Cmon, bruh.
I think you REALLY REALLY do not understand what his deal is. Like, I have a feeling you can’t even imagine what he’s thinking about.
I think we’re done here.
“Never wrestle with pigs. You both get dirty and the pig likes it.”
― George Bernard Shaw
If you feel dirty, sorry. I do, however genuinely believe you and a lot of other people do not fully understand Elon and his motivations and thought process (if at all).
The richest man in the world? Motivated by money? Perish the thought!
Do you think it’s possible getting rich is not his ultimate goal, but a secondary one?
There are many, many organizations that could benefit from his billions. You brought up his (undiagnosed) autism. How much has he given to autism charities?
Have you ever had a thought that allocating his money may have less of a long term positive impact if he just donated it to various charities instead of allocating it towards more long term goals? Not saying it would or wouldn’t, but did you even consider that?
Autism is a spectrum, sociopathy isn’t.
What does this have to do with sociopathy? And yes, I believe just about every mental disorder is a spectrum. (Mostly talking about the spectrum of severity here)
He’s not autistic, he was just raised by cruel people to be cruel.
I absolutely believe he is on the spectrum, without a doubt. I also don’t get what you mean by him being cruel? Like how?? I’m like (no joke) honestly baffled.
