    I was never a fanboy, but 10 years ago I had hope that he and his companies would make the world a better place.

    I never looked much into him as a person, but the promise of neat electric cars and humans living on Mars made it seem like the world was on a decent trajectory.

    I was obviously naive in hindsight, but on the surface everything seemed to be fine.

      All of his companies are complete garbage. Cars are a disgusting privilege literally destroying the planet. Colonizing space is a grift that does absolutely nothing for regular people on earth. Paypal jfc… Etc.

      Never had a chance of changing the world for a better place. Didn’t even try.
