He's a symptom of a problem. He's not actually the problem.
But to speak plainly, Musk is a complex figure, frequently problematic, and he often exacts a tool on the people around him. Part of this is attributable to his wealth, part to his particulars. When he goes into "demon mode", to use Walter Isaacson's phrase, you don't want to be in his way.
I'm a citizen, the laws of politics are the problem.
> Musk is a complex figure
Hogwash. He's greedy. There's nothing complex about that.
> and he often exacts a tool on the people around him
Yea it's a one way transfer of wealth from them to him. The _literal_ definition of a "toll."
> When he goes into "demon mode"
When he decides to lie, cheat and steal? Why do you strain so hard to lionize this behavior?
> you don't want to be in his way.
Name a billionaire who's way you would _like_ to be in. Elon Musk literally stops existing tomorrow. A person who's name you don't currently know will become known and take his place.
His place needs to be removed. It's not a function of his "personality" or "particulars." That's just goofy "temporarily embarrassed billionaire" thinking.
> lionize: give a lot of public attention and approval to (someone); treat as a celebrity: modern athletes are lionized.
Where in my comment do I lionize Musk?
Please calm down. Please try to be charitable and curious rather than accusatory towards me.
