No thank you. 🙂
Didn't use Twitter before Elon, and not using X now.

Musk named Tesla’s first set of mass market cars the S, 3, X, and Y. Think he may have the same association

Fully thought MR was off their rocker and started posting about an X-rated messaging app. Turns out it was just Twitter.
It might seriously take an alien invasion to turn our Divided Stated back into the United States…
you mean after those certain individuals broke the TOS many many times? Sure, I think Twitter staff were getting irritated at exceptions being made to keep some folks on the platform for as long as they were and happy to actually get their rules enforced
And what’s wrong with that? He earned it. He enabled what this planet is currently going through with **** people at the helm and holding people hostage to their created diaspora. Why has that man seemingly disappeared from the spotlight? Because all the c-suites he’s attached to told him to yap his trap before he’s removed. Money talks, and the people suffer.
His companies are responsible for the best EVs and the best rockets, but go off, I guess.
Eh, on the SpaceX side the rockets were designed by Tom Mueller’s team, the company is led by Gwynne Shotwell and has an entire team dedicated to keeping Musk away from anything he can break. Musk’s job with SpaceX is moneybags and gladhanding (and also lucking out in managing to get funneled an enormous amount of government funding at just the right time, mostly thanks to the McDonnell Douglas legacy of foibles at Boeing)
On the Tesla side… they definitely do not make the best EVs around lol

Maybe a bit unrelated, please forgive me, but is your feed also just a bunch of reused post as well? Also you’ll have 2 post back to back seemingly on the same topic or subject.
That’s my feed now. I’ll see the same exact post over and over from different accounts. It’s really like the dead internet theory .
His contribution was family money in all cases, he’s not an innovator he’s a rich guy buying companies and ideas and cosplaying.
Not his achievement. Look at the guy and what he says on a daily basis. That wouldn't be possible. His greatest feat was to hire great people very early in his career.

People just cannot admit that a person can have a brilliant mind, even though they have personal flaws.

I’m not even a hater really , but I feel like Elon is a lot of smoke , no fire on many of his promises. Not taking away from what he’s accomplished.

You beat me to it! Musk is a grifter who takes credit for other people's successes and throws other people under the bus when he's responsible for something bad.
He's very good at having big ideas and making them happen, and miserable at being a human being.
Exactly. Musk's success is entirely due to his teams. Search for the patents that he's an inventor on. There are very few and none are important. And he didn't found Tesla, he bought it.

When you are at such high level of innovation and high tech, some things will be duds or just cannot be done easily or efficiently with current tech, even though the idea is sound.
But when some politicians call him "unintelligent", thats just silly stuff.
Many officials, governments and organisations left X for obvious reasons. But too many stayed. They should leave for greener pastures as well. Can’t have your content next to porn, neonazi posts, hate speech or animal cruelty.
But yeah, as long as there’s an audience….
