    ehh, he exposed himself earlier. I was a huge fan until the whole “accusing the diver of being a pedo because of how he looked”, and from there Musk went downhill, quickly.

      Glad someone else remembers this, all because ppl didn’t like his “personal mini sub for every one of the trapped children” idea…meanwhile the guy he insulted literally saved every single one of them one by one.

        There actually were brave men who saved the kids for real, none of which were involved in any way with the childish Musk name calling BS. Those men’s names are John Volanthen, Richard Stanton, Jason Mallinson, Chris Jewell, Richard Harris, and Craig Challen and they are heros and they don’t deserve to have their bravery credited to anyone else no matter how childish some random billionaire is.

      That was basically the first hint I saw of what a dipshit Musk is/was, just because the guy criticized his water coffin idea. Before that though, I knew virtually nothing about Musk apart from Iron Man and whatever random news pieces were getting pushed out. He smoked weed! He made a flamethrower! They shot a car into space! The letters for the cars spell S3XY! In retrospect though and knowing what we know about him now, it just shows what an immature child he is.

      Yeah that was the first time I had to do a second glance at one of his comments. The scuba thing really sent him down a dark path lol

      A huge fan of government sunsidies, or false promises? He did manage to hire engineers to save him in some cases
