It's such a goddamn shame that he's now some sort of Alt-Right icon in their quest for "free speech" cause I'll admit that I used to look up to this fuckin guy.

Take us back a few years, before COVID, and when SpaceX was doing their cool shit - I was fucking pumped about the guy. He was pushing forward in the realm of space exploration and I was absolutely fucking jazzed about it! Or at least that was the appearance; I know that SpaceX has a different company structure to Tesla where Musk can't interfere as much.

Fast forward to now and I gotta ask: dafuq happened?

But I know what happened - he really was always kinda like this. It's just that now - it's going to be a really big damn financial mistake for him and good riddance. He's definitely not some scientific genius - he's just some emerald mine legacy that wanted to throw money at that sort of image.
