    Agreed, but Musk has never met a Jeremy Paxman.

    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I am not sure he is the visionary he likes us to think he is. Born rich and privelaged in apartheid South Africa, made his money by investing his existing money in other peoples ideas. Nothing wrong with that, but he is a money genius not an invention genius.

    And his cringeworthy overreactions to things and constant attention seeking are now hugely tiresome.

    SpaceX, Tesla, boring company starlink and twatter. I understand the guy irritates some but how can you not give him credit. I think Twitter was a dumb move and whacked Tesla stock but the guy can run a company and he came to the US via Canada (yes he is an African American now) with very little and accomplished much. He cool in my book, I would think the more your recorded talking the more people can pick apart what you say, especially if much of what you put out isn’t scripted.

    Fair enough. Don’t agree with all your points but he is definitely richer and more successful than I am! Very true about picking out snippets of interviews without context - that happens a lot - but I can’t warm to the guy ….

    I miss Billy boy Paxtom . I wonder what he would’ve made of today’s HW’s . Fuck me, he wasn’t over impressed with Muhammad Ali, or Cassius Clay, so these lot wouldn’t stand a chance.

    Free speech absolutism.


    That's just one of the crazy things about Musk buying Twitter. He knows it's secondary to his car and other businesses and that he needs significant support and cooperation from China and Indian regimes to set up factories in those markets and do business there. He knows the price of doing business there is to kowtow to the regimes like other western businesses do, especially media businesses like Hollywood and news businesses. You'd think the last thing he'd do would be to buy Twitter while claiming he was doing it to save free speech because immediately he's in conflict with his main business interests. He really thought he could be Mr. Free Speech Warrior in the west and kowtow to dictators in the east and nobody would notice? He's having some kind of slow blowing mental event it looks like. He'll end up in a hotel penthouse with foot long fingernails.
