    He was always a shitbag.

    He just had good PR, and most people never listened to the people countering it.

    Now, he’s fired the PR… and he’s still a shit bag with his crazy on.

      I’ll always remember how surprised most of us were when he turned out to be a shitbag while those kids in Thailand were stuck in a cave. I had no opinion on him until then.

        I had tingly sensors going off but I naively assumed that fiasco would have been a death knell for him. This timeline sucks

      Some people never heard. I see a lot of people accusing people of not listening, but for the first couple years I heard anything about Musk I didn’t hear any negatives. I wasn’t looking him up, I’d just see a joke or meme, and since I didn’t care much I probably didn’t even go into comments. I think the first real negative news I heard was the sub pedo incident.

      Maybe the Model E Model 3 S3X thing, but at worst I considered that an immature joke and didn’t think much further about it, nor heard anyway say anything seriously negative about it.
