It sucks, where is the 2016 Musk. That dude seemed to really want to help the world.
Tesla was in a difficult position, but was really doing good things, SpaceX was just getting off the ground (pun intended), The Boring Company wasn’t a thing yet.
But post 2016, he just seems to get worse and worse, meme coins, weird birther shit…
I used to really want a Tesla, they seemed like a car for me, but now that I am getting close to being able to afford one…well no, I think I’ll probably get a polestar. Musk you went from what I would have called a visionary to a joke then kept sliding into actively dangerous. Shame really.

Knowing people who worked with him at the time, 2016 Musk was a PR illusion and nothing more. He’s literally always been a giant piece of shit, he just had much better handlers and was able to hide it a lot better so he could get all those sweet government subsidies and commit stock fraud. Literally everything he’s ever done has been in the name of gifting money from the government or shareholders in some form or another for personal enrichment. He’s never once cared about anyone other than himself.
Musk is now one of the wealthiest people in the world and our justice and financial system have made it clear he won’t be punished, so now he can be the same piece of shit he’s always been, just publicly, because it’s clear there will be basically zero repercussions.
