Glad to hear it, too. He hired the former ad chief from comcast and that’s a well hated company.

So is this just according to musk? Because that guy is untrustworthy and stupid.

lol I hope he loses it all. But I’m sure he’ll just find another rich loop hole to kick the can with another company. He got lucky with spaceX. Found the right people; and the right people that don’t put up with his shit.

He got lucky with spaceX.

I think we should acknowledge his strengths. Inspiring and empowering smart people to prototype something audacious is something he is very good at. He didn't get lucky with SpaceX, he did what he is good at.

What he is bad at is the next step. And because his ego doesn't allow him to step away and let somebody else do the next step:,take a prototype and turn it into a business, his companies are doomed to be just fluff.

I'm worried SpaceX will suffer the same fate under his leadership. There's no escape from a leader with bad leadership skills.

"Inspiring and empowering" aka he's rich and gonna get richer, nothing unique to the man himself. Those smart people could do leauges better out of a coperate environment - he doesn't even let non-teslas park in their parking lot as their Cali research locations. Lotta empowerment there

I blame cancel culture! The true test of a free society is that people can say whatever they want with no consequences! /s

It's okay, I'm sure Elon will figure out what the problem is eventually, not sure if Big Blue Bird will still be alive by then but he might just get it!
