Elon Musk

[Octavian]

He's not, he's just rich enough to employ lots of intelligent people.

I’ve read his biography and I reckon he’s right in the top bracket of most intelligent people alive today.

 

[Bigga]

Well, like it or not, media will be going into Musk overdrive.

Can't think of anyone else this would happen to...

How’s crypto treating you?

put it this way, beginning to realise how Utd fans feel at the moment.

It’s going the way of the brand your handle alludes to maybe.

OMFG I AM ABSOLUTELY SHOCKED THAT MUSK WOU . . . oh, never mind.

Every time I see him, all I can think of is Tim Nice-But-Dim from Harry Enfield. An over-privileged, thick twat who came from money and bumbles through life falling upwards.

He's not thick but he is a twat.

Thought he believed in freedom of speech?

 

[Blue Maverick]

He seems very on the scale to me, brilliant but a ticking time bomb.

They had freedom of speech.

Not freedom of consequence.

Two very different things.

He has Asperger’s. It’s public knowledge and he doesn’t hide it.

 

[Mr Kobayashi]

Not freedom of consequence.

Two very different things.

Likes to sue whistleblowers as well though doesn't he?

 

[BlueHammer85]

Kind of respect the fact his innovative and different

But also think he’s a right bellend

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

They had freedom of speech.

Not freedom of consequence.

Two very different things.

A bit like everybody on Earth?

Isn’t that what Twitter were already doing though?

When Twitter ban you for violating their terms and conditions, it's a threat to free speech.

When SpaceX fires you for condemning the behaviour of it's founder, it's a consequence of free speech.

Let's face it, the so called freedom of speech debate is just one of many on a conveyer belt of red herrings.

Nah, it’s just who you determine who the “wrong kind of people” are.

Or more simply put, the people with abhorrent views hate being silenced and shout free speech when challenged about their abhorrent views.

I wouldn't mind if they just owned their prejudices instead of unconvincingly dressing them up as unbiased centrism.

I've lost count of the amount of people who supposedly don't have an opinion either way on Musk, despite their rebuttals becoming more and more nonsensical every time a legitimate criticism gets added to the ever growing list.

Is it possible to be a biased centrist?

Musk has a free mind when it comes to allowing science to move forwards and he needs applauding for that.

How he is as a character probably isn’t to be applauded. He can’t take criticism well and lashes out uncontrollably when challenged.

I’m firmly in his camp on twitter. He’s right about algorithms absolutely bringing out the worst in humanity. Explains muppets like Delaney and Castles getting any traction for example.
