    Seeing Elon Musk turn into one of the worst human beings in the planet in just a decade has been one of the most eye-opening experiences I have ever had. I remember when my super-religious friend fangirled for him, even read his entire book, biography. He now thinks he is “the devil”, rightfully so lol. I used to have respect for him way before because I think he lost a son? And apparently “worked hard” to try and send us to space, as the old propaganda said. But now, pandering to racists, terrorists and even pedophiles, it’s just insane, this timeline is so fucking weird

      Yeah he’s always been a piece of trash that used his money to pay smart people for work he took personal credit for.

      I didn’t notice it at first myself. But once he took over twitter and started talking about programming (something I have a lot of experience with) it became very clear he didn’t have any idea what he was saying.

      Obviously I wouldn’t wish losing a child on anyone, but it doesn’t make him a good person in any way.
