I knew about Elon from some very lengthy posts on a blog called waitbutwhy that made him look like some very rad dude.
I loved that blog because it was informative and funny and it had a very hopeful view on future technologies, it all sounded incredibly exciting.
Then they made a post taking cryonics seriously and I was like "huh?". And then I started learning who Elon really was and now I can't trust that blog anymore.
I mean people also admired Hitler for being such a great politician before he set the world on fire.
People are idiots.
