    I was the same way. I really wasn’t exposed to Musk. Didn’t follow him on Twitter. Then he got active with the DOGE coin community, which was kind is embarrassing. Then he has the whole kids trapped in the cave/Pedo guy thing, but the part that really started to sour him for me was the Tesla factory shutdown push back during the pandemic. I started paying more attention to him and really began to dislike him. He’s been shitty for a while but I just didn’t pay attention.

      Pretty much the same with me. I used to think he was a visionary who would seriously help to make the world a better place. That was back in 2017 and I was much younger back then. Like you, the whole “pedo guy”/cave thing was what made me start to think that maybe he’s not a good person, and things sort of spiralled from there. Did you see that deleted Tweet of his where he said Canada isn’t a real country?
