He's master techbro. He confidently bullshits about things he doesn't understand because he's a dude and is in tech, and for his whole life everyone has praised tech like being in it makes you a god.

So, he exemplifies everything cs bachelor's students want to be.

He was a rich kid who used his parents connections and money to make it big. He wants people to think hes the next Nikolai Tesla, but he isnt the one designing and building the stuff he sells.

Because he got all the credit for what Tesla made. It was the same thing with Steve Jobs. His employees actually did everything, but everyone will think of them when innovation is mentioned because they are the face of the company.

So instead of the next Tesla, he's basically the next Edison?

Elon Musk specifically targets industries/projects that are more popular in pop science so that his name is associated with engineering/scientific greatness.

Elon just got lucky. He doesn't know anything. I'm not even sure how SpaceX and Tesla still exist. 10 years ago, a privately owned space company and a electric car manufacturer would be considered insane to invest in. That's just luck. He's a POS.

No one is better than anyone but it is certainly true that "rich people" contribute quite a bit more than the average person.
So what?

I think he's exceptionally immature for a man his age in the position he's in, but he's clearly not a dumbass. He's an extremely competent businessman and competent enough in technology and physics

Do you think corporate lawsuits are a rare thing? I regularly get sent emails advertising shareholder lawsuits in companies I own. It happens constantly to pretty much every company.

lolwhatproof?
he has invented NOTHING he is not a founder of any of the companies he claims to be he just bought his way in and forced his name in
Found SpaceX.
Found Boring Company.
Part founder of Neurolink and OpenAI.
The only thing he didn't find was Tesla, which he made an actual company.
Part founder X.com (merged to make Paypal)

He also did a lot of work for all companies he is involved in, albeit less so now than before. Imagine thinking the CEO of a company invents everything and does 100% of the work. Imagine thinking a person can't make a mistake or has made a bad decision. Imagine saying an immigrant moving to a new country to escape an abusive parent is just a "rich kid".

Ignorance isn't a virtue. I recommend not banking your entire existence onto it and to try thinking for yourself comrade.
