    People have over and over again tried to apply some logic to Musk’s behaviour, but I have found that in most cases it ends up just being plain stupidity or ignorance at best.

      Yeah, I fail to see how people consider him a genius when everything that comes out of his mouth is so ridiculous.

        He’s an innovator / dreamer / entrepreneur at best. I doubt he’s an engineer, scientist or any of that … he is a visionary, but he sure as hell didn’t figure out all the Tesla and or rocketry shit on his own, ppl/professionals helped him mostly. Albert Einstein and Nikola Tesla figured out /and build shit on their own (essentially)… them folks are geniuses.

          Even that is generous. He is good at buying others innovation and tying them to his brand. 2 years ago I would’ve said he was also good at his own PR (I was wrong lol).
