What makes Elon human is the fact that he makes mistakes just like the rest of us, but he doesn't let them define him. You can see that he tries to stay connected and in the loop with the world despite all the hate, which is something that many people at his level seem to avoid and think is beneath them. And he is constantly growing alongside his peers and continues to pursue work that benefits humanity, even if there are those who absolutely despise him and will never appreciate any of it.

This guy has major disconnects in his personality. On the one hand he can talk with empathy about Elon and go deep into his personal issues with his father. And on the other hand he says things like "I don't care about the Uyghurs" in a different interview. I don't think you can have selective empathy. You either have it or you don't. I think he is on the road to empathy, but he is not truly there.

[@Libertarianmobius1]

I admire Elon Musk because of this simple speech by Theodore Roosevelt. "The poorest way to face life is to face it with a sneer. There are many men who feel a kind of twisted pride in cynicism; there are many who confine themselves to criticism of the way others do what they themselves dare not even attempt. There is no more unhealthy being, no man less worthy of respect, than he who either really holds, or feigns to hold, an attitude of sneering disbelief toward all that is great and lofty, whether in achievement or in that noble effort which, even if it fails, comes to second achievement. It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat. "

Musk has the power and ability to make himself happy AND to change the world His focus isn't on that. He wants to be remembered more than he wants to be happy. Dudes a robot, he can do what he wants. I feel more sorry for every kid mining his lithium and cobalt than I do for one of the most well off people on earth 🤣🤣🤣 Dudes lonely? Most people are lonely. People with disabilities live mostly in isolation, without the fiscal power to buy people to do things for them

[@samsohn]

Lmao, Google translate this clip : "Elon, I love you, love me back!!!"

[@chriskramer9311]

Listening to tech bros inflate the pain that it is to be another tech bro is SO removed from reality, it really makes being a tech bro less attractive. The regular person DOES NOT benefit from Elon's stuff, but a lot do get hurt from it- or worse. To paint Elon as a tortured, lonely, humanity-carrying genius is so far removed from reality it's insane. INSANE.

[@mcutli]

Says the guy who uses tech bro multiple times in a sentence. What’s insane is your ability to see beyond your jealousy at the value these things bring in terms of way of life, hope for the future, Inspiring generations of youth to study math, sciences, manufacturing. It’s Insane how little your brain can see impact beyond what’s directly and overtly in front of you. I’d love to see your resume of impact on the world…

[@chriskramer9311]

@@mcutli I see this argument all the time from people like you. I know EXACLTY the type of person you are. You lead a boring, lonely life, have no girlfriend and no future. You think the ONLY valid criticism is one from a person of equal or greater self-inflated ego and accomplishments, which if elon is the richest most egotistical wacko out there, to you he is beyond criticism. That is a spineless way to think. But we both know you are in fact spinless. I, and MANY OTHERS, that were loved by both parents as children, were raised with confidence, are well-enough-adjusted, intelligent enough, adaptable enough, and who now lead successful lives filled with fufilling relationships and achivements-- can see straight through people like you, and Elon. But we dont relish in it, we quietly live our enriched lived in peace and occasionally blast weirdos like you on youtube.

I wish that someone would explain to me why a brilliant scientist/engineer and entrepreneur committed to addressing remediation of climate change via BEV’s and solar would support anti-science and climate change denying Republicans!

[@oakinwol]

Because a mob of people on the left started disliking and attacking him because he made a company that made too much money and because he doesn't like regulations that makes it harder for his business to function. That's why. It's hard to continue to like people who are really ingracious and don't like you when you didn't specifically try to do something on purpose to hurt them

Finances and speed, governments are extremely slow at helping or worsening climate change. Governments on the other hand can help expedite research and cash flow in a manner that may easily exceed the harm potentially done.
