I love everything about this, but perhaps this line most of all: “He rebranded it as “X”, because nothing says success like naming your platform after the thing people click when they want to leave.”

My father-in-law was a Lead NASA engineer, my husband was fired by Trump during his first term. I 💙 this for El0n, we are going backwards in Space exploration…. What a loser.

It’s the same delusional confidence that led him to buy Twitter for $44 billion, rename it “X” like a thirteen-year-old trying too hard, and then systematically destroy it in the name of “free speech”—which, in Musk’s world, just means letting neo-Nazis scream slurs at Applebee’s on a dying social media site." 😭😭😭

Do you teach Gonzo writing techniques cuz this is the hottest writing Ive found anywhere that hews to facts in such hyperbolic and delicious ways!

All very true and interesting but nowhere does it mention his 14 children and the lawsuits he is having with their 4 different mothers. I feel so sorry for Musk's offspring and the embarrassment of being the progeny of such a self-centred narcissistic A-hole. At least one of his daughters has changed her name and won't have anything to do with him. What does that tell you about him as a human being?

Too bad because if he was a good person, imagine the good he could do to the world.

I thought he bought Twitter as a propaganda tool to assist in his political coup.
