Whatever point this article is trying to make is just completely overshadowed by the dripping vitriol. Musk has a "head full of room temperature butterscotch"? Come on. It's hard to take any of the rest seriously once you read a sentence like that.

    I agree the article is kind of silly.

    Mediocre journo with a degree in theatre from NY State says they guy who built the world's most successful rocket and ev companies is dumb and didn't understand what he was doing.

    By your own standards who should take Elon seriously?

    • uejfiweun a month ago

      Are you really this stupid? Elon's not a journalist, dude. He's a tech CEO who founded SpaceX.

        Are you implying that's a reason to take him seriously? Or is that an excuse for lying routinely, including on topics for which it's an SEC regulations violation for someone who is a CEO? What the heck do you mean?

          Yes, absolutely. Is this really so hard to understand? The guy literally founded SpaceX. Of course I'm going to take him seriously. At least a lot more seriously than some no name journalist who proclaims that the founder of SpaceX is dumber than a bag of bricks.
