I thought highly of Elon. As that Tweet says, people told me he was smart and so I just assumed he must be. Then I watched that Rogan interview. The first one he was on, where he smoked pot. He came across to me as a complete idiot. Then I stared reading about him and found that so many people he has worked with in the past speak badly of his intelligence and his decisions. Then even publicly he seemed to go full stupid, that entire Twitter debacle happened, and he's just gotten worse from there. I have zero respect for him. He's surrounded himself by smart people in the past and he's managed to take credit for all of their decisions while managing to sweep his bad ones under the table. That is all.

he does have a way to rally people it seems. There's a Musk army of sorts, and they will attack if you say anything negative about the guy. I get it, but I also don't.
I kind of never get that cult of personality thing. I mean, I do, I have read the psychological underpinnings of that need, but at the same time... I don't get it.
