Look at his actual tangible successes and tell me how that could happen in a vacuum. Why no other person in history (at least recent history) has achieved these things.
He is a lying piece of shit. But I’m definitely not saying he is dumb.
I actually wrote “he is extraordinarily smart.”
He is very good at hiring smart engineers and making them work like dogs.
He tells them BS about how sleeping at work will save the world and save humanity. He hires smart people then takes credit for whatever they produce.
A lot of these engineers are technically good but they have zero life experience. Musk love young people like this. It’s exactly the kind of people he hired at DOGE.
Then what’s needed is to organize smart engineers. This doesn’t need anyone like Musk. It can happen in a nationalized company connected to state-funded universities; tends to be easier to do when you don’t have a whole political party dedicated to sabotaging any attempt at this and then claiming it can’t work. All Musk does is extract value from the process for himself, and then make sure that political party stays at the top.
I’m going to throw out one counterpoint.
You have not addressed the RESULTS.

Agree. I just hate it when people try to say his efforts didnt make it happen.
I wish he would shut the fuck up about politics and let me enjoy cool rockets and fast cars 😞
