Elon is (maybe was) very much good at what he does. Twitter is a bad example because that whole shit show was a dick measuring content from the get-go.

Fact is, SpaceX wouldn't be SpaceX and Tesla sure as fuck would not be Tesla without his leadership.

He's a piece of shit as a person, and I'd never want to work for him, because his work ethic is unhealthy to say the least (and I personally have a pretty extreme work ethic), but it's schoolyard nonsense to claim he's somehow bad at business. Leading a business may be the one thing he is good at. It's tossing shit just to toss shit.

You can not like him and acknowledge he is good at things.

Tesla sure as fuck would not be Tesla without his leadership.

You're right, it wouldn't; it would almost certainly be a better company.

Musk got Tesla where it is financially entirely through blatant fraud. "Earning" the company's absurd valuation based almost entirely on dishonest promises of releasing a technology that is entirely unachievable, undesirable, and dangerous is an unsustainable business model, and it's already showing cracks.

The fact that you seem to think that being highly profitable through constant ethical violations in every aspect of the company is to viewed as a succsess is honestly pretty gross.

I live in the real world, in which the Tesla turnaround happened before the self driving shit
