Elon musk is everything wrong with the tech industry as a whole, overpriced, over engineered, and QA lacking products, hes arrogant when he shouldnt be, and his "disruptions" are mostly stupid, what accomplishments he does have are largely the result of engineers he pays that he takes credit for

the only thing he is good at is marketing himself



Sorry, you are clueless. Yes, some aspects of his personality are obnoxious, but he’s built multiple companies that have delivered real innovation, his customers are largely happy, and I’m sure his engineers don’t care how much credit he takes.


His companies have few innovations, at best they are iterative, and often actively worse. and he did none of it himself, he deserves zero credit

people think he is innovative because he sold decades old tech to people who didnt pay attention before, because he is a glorified marketing exec and hes not even good at that

consumer satisfaction is a poor way to measure quality


You just like trolling Elon fans, don’t you?
