I really, really dislike Musk.
WaPo, as a respectable broadsheet newspaper, delicately avoids mentioning that they got a poop emoji in response to their enquiries.
"Surely this, finally, is the thing that will make his weird fans give up on him", about once a week.
The secret appears to be that there is no level of arseholeishness, abhorrence, or just plain stupidity which will cause the faithful to forsake Dear Leader.

His work at Tesla and Space-X showed vision, persistence, focus, insights, … and now this?
EDIT: The downvoters might do well to keep in mind that "awesome" does not mean "admirable". "Spectacle" also does not.
I don't personally agree with the direction of his work. Like, Mars? Why really? But the world would be a better place with more CEOs with longterm vision and persistence, and fewer twittertwits.
Moreover, Soros is a guy from another country who pours money into the USA to get leftist DAs elected who don't prosecute crimes. Krasner, Boudin, Gascon, etc. He has openly admitted to this. I have an ENORMOUS amount of criticism of this that has literally NOTHING to do with Mr. Soros' religion, or background, or anything. Hiding behind this wall of "any criticism of me is racist" is a serious bullshit move IMO.
I have no skin in this game...but Elon most definitely knows that Magneto is Jewish when making that comparison. Whether or not other people are aware of it is irrelevant.
In general I'd like to try to believe people aren't just blatantly racist.
