For someone that has autism, I would say that he has accomplished quite a bit. Some people hate anyone that is not politically aligned with them.

MY LIFE VIEW. Rather than put down people who have changed the world as we know it and made incomprehensible wealth doing it. It is far more productive to ask what can I LEARN from him and how can I PROFIT FROM WHAT I HAVE LEARNED.

Imagine this guy is selling seats on his reusable rockets? Who would have thought of doing this. More important how many who thought of doing this would, could actually do it.

I for one see I am not even in Elon Musk's league. Tear him down? A long reach up for many to even touch his shoes.

Sadly, where we are today and how we got here. "Ninety-five percent get enraged about."
Hate, is a powerful and yet MINDLESS emotion. We the people are to blame we have sadly allowed hate to be in too many people's thought. I for one work hard to keep my HATE LIST empty. That way should I need to I will give that person, that issue my full attention.

I agree with this guy's opinion.

"As I wrote before, I think people misjudge Elon’s confidence as arrogance, and think that he is actually a relatively humble guy. But confidence is one of those things that can make some others feel self-conscious and inadequate (even while it has the opposite effect on other humans), and these feelings of self-consciousness and inadequacy are fuel for envy. We somehow think that someone else’s success is about us — and that is the depth of the problem."

Bingo.

In other words, jealousy is a bitch.

No more complaining about xfinety, Spectrum, Centurylink internet cost.
The new SpaceX product comes at five times the cost of standard service: Starlink Premium requires a $500 refundable deposit, a $2,500 fee for the antenna and router, and service costs $500 per month.

People that do not go with the current MEDIOCRATY are always considered crazy.
Not an issue for me-I am not creative. In the villages try a creative paint scheme on YOUR home.

In Canada where everything costs more than it does in the USA, the price for starlink is $714 for all hardware. There is no deposit or monthly contract. The price is $129.00 per month. You had better recheck your source.

Elon Musk is in the midst of building 4.5 million sq. ft. of manufacturing space in Texas investing in a ton of automation and spending billions along the way. He's pumping billions into the US economy.

And he's late on the truck... But, nothing happened in 2020 and 21 to cause any delays?

Tall Weed Syndrome
 
Any time someone rises above the crowd, they must be whacked down like a tall weed. Elon (what the hell did he name his kid?) has done more for humanity than all his critics combined! Not to say that it is all good but....more than they have!

Amazing how many people put this guy down when he has done so much good

MTC.

While I agree with your sentiment, Elon Musk is not allowed to become President as he was born in South Africa.

Classy post by DAVES bears repeating ^^^

For those who are not familiar with his background, below is link to an 6-minute interview with Maye Musk, the gorgeous 70+-year-old model and AMAZING mother who raised Elon and worked to help him and her other children develop fine, down-to-earth character traits and to maximize their respective abilities. Their story is interesting to say the least, and quite inspiring.

(Don't be put off by the brief opening shot of a magazine cover of a "photoshopped" Ms. Musk that mimicks Demi Moore's famous 1990's nude pregnancy photo; it startled me, but I suppose it was "conceived" as a clever way of depicting little Elon's origins).
