From a former fan of Elon Musk, his biggest contribution to life is that he looked a lot less stupid before he started talking, therefore proving that light travels faster than sound.
Ashamed to say it, I was also a fan of this moron 🤦♂
I saw his performance on Joe Rogan and he couldn't even understand a straightforward question which anyone would have. I knew then that the guy was not smart.
Like Trump, his "genius" is evil. For example, he paid crazy money for Twitter not to make money directly, but to help sway elections towards fascist dictatorship so that he can gain more money and power that way. I have a saying: Intelligence without wisdom is like a boat without water; it won't take you anywhere meaningful. Musk is a perfect example. Go to Mars? Please do, Elon. A simple man with wisdom, I've been given the answers to all of mankind's deepest questions, including The Meaning of Life. "The Book of GOD" takes only 5 minutes to read at no cost.

@@digbycrankshaft7572 then you can go make another successful automobile company and rocket company, prove yourself without talking too much
@@vladwochinki3020 Anyone could do that if they were born already rich like Elon Musk
The fact that he was fired as CEO due to genuinely mind-boggling incompetence, yet was able to get 178 million shows how f-d our system is.
Capitalism is the best system ever (for billionaires)
Also, do you know how bad you have to be as a CEO to be fired for incompetence? They set up those "golden parachutes" so if they get fired they cost the company millions so that they will only get fired if the board thinks they will cost the company more than that in a year.
Another fun CEO fact, it's been proven that CEOs get worse the more experience they have. Just a related thought
Failing up is our national pastime.

The Gullibility of the gullible is quite unbelievable!
Elon Musk is the Thomas Edison of our day.
That's not a complement.
That's for people who know history.
Also not a compliment
By this you mean he employed people to invent things and took the credit?
You mean stealing everyone's ideas and when he can't he pushes them out of business?

Humor is subjective. Although he is autistic so it makes sense if you believe him to be unfunny
And also the cringiest
Now that i must absolutely disagree with. I often find myself dying of laughter at some of his idiotic antics, he's a living billion dollar meme.
But I don't hold it against him that he dances like the Tin Man on the Wizard of OZ. I have a saying: Intelligence without wisdom is like a boat without water; it won't take you anywhere meaningful.

Quite literally the unfunniest man on the planet. The king of copy pasting the shytest memes on the net. The only funny thing he did was give his his kid a barcode for a name
This reminds me of something my grandma used to say "if the rich were smart all our worldly problems would be resolved and if the poor were smart they wouldn't want to be rich"
Thanks for this 🙏

no, you haters are in a cult that hates humankind, achievement and hard work. Go on with your pathetic, delusional and depressed lives
That is what I said for years now, and people stare at me in disbelief.
People, me included, mistake him for a socially awkward genius, due to his various quirks displayed in interviews, or in his weird dances/outfits/etc.
Turns out he's just socially awkward without any bonus to his intelligence.
...the dancing and cowboy hats are absolutely cringe.
you dont know the details about how crazy engineering problems were solved under his leadership so stfu
Smart doesn't mean competent.
He certainly conned a lot of people. That takes a _kind_ of smarts.
He's just a sociopath. Learned, inborn, who cares? Both.
I heard him best described as a 12 year old throwing out ideas.
@@joecoolioness6399actual 12 year olds are more creative and purer than this guy
In our culture, the only thing you need to be considered a genius is money. It doesn't matter if you won it playing roulette, you're now a genius and people will hang on your every word. This is very unhealthy.
Then they claim if your poor that you're just lazy.
Dude had $50k to start with and became the richest man on earth. You could do the same?
So... have you read the entire Encyclopedia Britannica...? Elon did so when he was 8 years old.
@@visceralvids intelligence and genius are not the same. Genius is top level of intelligence. Musk displaying intelligent decisions or behavior doesn't then make him a Genius. Musk is more like an Edison than a Tesla.
A thief would have more money than an engineer.. A culture of thieves!!
For Musk the famous saying is very true: oh si tacuisses, philosophus mansisses (oh if you had kept your mouth shut, you would have remained a philosopher).
now he became cancer of the world instead
I like that!
In Germany we have a Giga factory near Berlin now. Since it opened he contaminated the drinking water of Berlin. The Insurance,all employers have to pay for working accidents, BG sued him for too many working accidents and bad safety in the factory. He pays 20% less then all other German carmakers and people only work there because there are no jobs in the region. He violates constantly construction rules of Germany building what he wants, where he wants. This lead to a permanent protesters camp in the woods close to Giga Germany with mord the 100 protesters living there permanently in tree houses in order to stop him from simply cutting down the forest. He tried to sack Union workers, which was later reversed by the courts and cost him lots of money , because Germanies unions and their representatives in Germany are protected by law. Lately, since the demand for Tesla vehicles stagnated he sacked 300 workers who worked for a contractor and he will sack 3000 by the end. All this will cost Tesla lots of money, because Germanies labour laws are strict and not like in the US. When he built the factory he therefore employed lots of Polish workers who had to be happy to be underpaid. He is so hated in Berlin, that bouncers did not let him into a famous Berlin Club called Berghain. He has not many fans in Germany and not many Teslas can be seen on the roads here.
Maybe we have to think about Roman Impaier !? Why Berlin and Germany!? Beter look what going on besides this in yors Germany 😆
you have to realize tesla is not only run by him, he has only like 10 20% owner ship of tesla. and how things are chosen there is by voting. he wants more vote power like 25%, but that s hat he wants.
all the things you ve said doesn t just resume to musk s doing.
No, he did not "contaminate the drinking water of Berlin"
@@wunder1385 his factory is contaminting the drinking water in its region because of chemicals used in the construction of his vehicles.
Gawd liberals really are the same everywhere? Wow. Lying is like...a required skill
He thinks himself a modern day N. Tesla, but he’s really T. Edison
Even Edisons are getting worse nowadays
yep, born rich, has underpaid workers, steals inventions, and hires people to do work for him
Edison was a bright one too even tho one couldn't compare him to Nikola Tesla
He has has said he admires Edison more, despite naming his company Tesla
At least T. Edison invented some shit
18:15 Hali is like the opposite of m usk, he wanted to get payed with a wage because that would maximise the amount he paid the government in tax as a thank you, because of their policies for disabled people like himself. This also meant twitter owed him 100 million dollars, therefore he was on a do not fire list because apart from him being a great employee they would have to pay him 100 million dollars instantly, something the already struggling twitter could not do. Hali is the opposite of m usk, a kind man who thinks of wellbeing of others, not just himself, his family love him, unlike m usk's family who all find him repugnant. Even changing their names to make sure they can get away from him. Hali actually creates things instead of taking credit for others work.
Hail is a genuinely good person and millionaire, a quality soo rare in that bracket.
I guess you can't be a perfect humain all the time .
If he was as bad as you think he would cash out long long time ago . And i bet you are a perfect angel who make no mistakes.
@@jtdraco4717 Your defence of the Muskrat is pathetic.
@@page8301 stop talking about others and think about if it was use full . and do you really think i care about your comment pèsent ? You can't even défend your point off view.
Wealthy people generally don’t take salaries, its not how money works as is explained in the video.
Also they don’t have a mind set of trading time for money as you do on a salary. They use their money and assets to make more money. It one of the biggest mindset shifts between wealthy and the poor. It’s difficult to build wealth exchanging time for money as time is limited and there a limit to what you can get paid.
Assets giving you money might be limited to what each one can give but there no limits to how many assets you can have
The concept of an electric car did not originate with him.
Thomas Parker, an English inventor who was responsible for electrifying the London Underground, built the first production electric car in Wolverhampton in 1884. This was followed in 1888 by the construction of the first real electric car by German engineer Andreas Flocken but the world's first mass-market electric vehicle (EV). The pioneering LEAF hit the roads in December 2010. First sold in Japan, Europe and America, it's now driven in 59 markets.
"He is reactive and callous, with his only redeeming quality being his mortality." That's great stuff right there! I generally hate hearing anything about this guy at all, but this is comedy gold.
I first read the comment and read morallity. But now that I actually read what you said and heard itt from the video, I'm worried.
I believe he was also referred to a s a "wet fart of a man" (it would be a shame if you forgot that particular quote after all of "Just some's" intensive Research😉)
Yet it is interesting that again and again he proves the haters wrong. And rarely have I seen a more biased video.
At some point a reasonable man would realize they're just the "money dude", not a goddamn space engineer.
he probably knows but doesn't want anyone else to.
Yepp Richard Branson at least has some medicon of humility.
He does actually have a pretty substantive background regarding the Raptor Rocket Engine
It's true! Musk is Trump's secret love child!
@@royfearn4345 That would be hard considering he was a stalwart democrat until Biden ticked him off by crediting GM for the resurgence of electric cars and didn't even mention Tesla.
Former Elon fan myself, I even own Tesla stock. As time goes by the wool is slowly being lifted from my eyes. He's just full of smoke and mirrors / bait and switch, one can say he speaks before he thinks. How long has he been promising FSD, and how many people have paid for it and still waiting? Why did he remove Lidar from vehicles? CyberTruck was supposed to cost $50K, now it is 100K. Although claiming to be, he is not a founding member of Tesla. No one in their right mind would pay 44B for Twitter. The Hyperloop is a failure. Where are the Tesla Semi Trucks? Good idea, poor implementation. Where are the RoboTaxis promised by 2020? He really doesn't care about people or his employees. He claims to work 100 hours per week, and so should every one else? People have lives and children to raise. I promise you this, he will never go to Mars, it is one of the most inhospitable places one can imagine.
You had me at "Pigeon phucker 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 too much? Phuck it" Andddddd "cat sick" 😂😂😂😂😂
I used to think he was someone more intelligent than me and I used to look up to him. This rapidly changed.
you dont know the details about how crazy engineering problems were solved under his leadership so stfu
guarantee you're quite smart, and absoLUTEly smarter than that dingdong. nobody raised in isolated privilege can be all that bright. it's sad really
Tesla and spaceX seem to be happy to exist through lovely corporate welfare, massively overcharging the US Defense department for their rocket launches and selling off all their lovely carbon credits to the highest bidder, allowing the company to ahem- actually report a quarter of profit.
Now the other mega car corporations are really getting their act together Tesla’s middling car reliability and huge liabilities will start to bite. Hard.
He will always be smarter than majority of the people. But that's not what separates him from us. He relentlessly works probably 80 hours a week.
Judge people by their achievements, ideas, Goals and virtues. Intelligence on its own is not a virtue. Unfortunately, some people prop it up as some idol. But ironically those that do are often lacking.
It is better to be down-to-earth, funny, hard-working, productive, and uncompromising. Anyway I am gone from this hellish plane of bread tube
I'm so glad people are starting to see through him, he just takes credit for other people's work, he has invested nothing, his started nothing, the companies associated with him grow to their heights due to government subsidy, and hype built around false promises.
Except SpaceX which is genuinely awesome, I can't wait for starship launch 😍
But even there he didn't invent the self landing Rockets etc...
@@ukeyaoitrash2618 starship is a failed project, common sense skeptic went into it in a video series about that. They pretended starship would work because they wanted more investment.
He steals memes from reddit to post on his twitter too, which totally lines up with what we know about Elon xd
@@ukeyaoitrash2618 thet starship isnt going to run ever at the capacity musk claims. in fact: the original name for the star ship was falcon super heavy but that got redesigned into the big falcpn rocket or BFR for short and that then got changed to the starship. aother thing hinting to it being pretty much garbage: the og design had landing legs for booster and orbiter. now both have no legs left.
@@ukeyaoitrash2618Starship is one of his biggest scams. I don't mean physically either.
"Elon is a greedy little niffler" I did not know I needed to hear this but it made my day ^^ .
The question shouldn't be why don't his fan boys know. Its why don't msm news know, or report clearly publicly available info. Seems to me they created the hype/myth. Ive known this for a few years now, tiz frustrating.
20:20 don't forget the 2 best parts of the Hali v Elon story!
1. after selling his company to Twitter and starting to work there, he gave all (or most but if I recall correctly, its all) of the money he earned from the sale to the Icelandic government as thanks for all the social-services they provide to their citizens which gave him the opportunity to do all the work and make the company he sold to twitter despite his disability. (something the US should take note of, when you invest in your citizens it can pay off exponentially)
2. part of the deal when Hali sold his business to and and started working at Twitter meant that when Elon fired him he got a HUUUGGGEEE severance payout or something and then on top of that, after Elon talked with his lawyers, trying to get out of this new mess he made for himself, it turns out that, neither is there anyway out of it (like buying Twitter ironically lol) he had to publicly apologize to Hali or risk getting sued 😂😂😂
Oh Elon, always falling deeper and deeper into the holes you dig for yourself, its a good thing he's a billionaire because (we don't have universal healthcare, which is a crime against humanity) he's shooting himself in the foot so much, he's gonna shoot it off 😉 💥🦶🔫
Halli is literally everything Elon claims to be and more.
Envy will kill you, bit by bit. The world we live, the people we live with, the rulers and powerful we endure... None of that is or will ever be perfect.
You think you can have a world without powerful people?
Think again!
You think you can have flawless powerful people?
Think again!
Power is inevitable, it has always been in human history.
Unfortunately, power corrupts.
However some powerful people are less corrupted by power than others. And Elon Musk, despite all the flaws you mentioned, it certainly not the most corrupted one.
His issue? He is vocal and public about what he does on impulse. And he often blunders... Publicly.
That's far better than the powerful who *#$@ you up behind your back!
Weird innit? In Finland we also have these game company millionaires who steadfastly refuse to "tax plan" their way out when they get that grand exit. Because the society has given to them personally, and also has given them an educated work force.
Not having a rotting and filthy “healthcare” scheme where people wait months for the services I receive here in the good ole you esse of aye in a matter of days is a crime against humanity. 😂 okay my smart buddy 👌🏿
Elon Musk literally sinking twitter is the most self-aware he will ever be
Except he's not aware, he sincerely believes he's doing a good job.
@@joshuapowers4623 he's gotten himself into an echo chamber, and I don't think he can get out of.
@@vxicepickxv Of course he can't. The first step would be wanting out and he doesn't
To be fair, Twitter has been sinking for years.
He doesn't care, because he is using Twitter to help sway elections towards fascist dictatorship so that he can gain more money and power. I have a saying: Intelligence without wisdom is like a boat without water; it won't take you anywhere meaningful. Musk is a perfect example. Go to Mars? Please do, Elon.

You left out the best part of the Halli incident!
He did sell his company to twitter.
He did so with a specific clause that if he were fired, Twitter needed to pay him a HUGE severance fee. That's probably why HR was so vague about if he'd been let go - there was a sticky note somewhere saying "UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES FIRE THIS MAN".
So, when Twitter confirmed they'd fired him, he extracted his fee, and the company already hemorrhaging money cost itself a bunch more for no reason except Elon's utter incompetence.
If I remember correctly he sent the money he got to a charity?
Now that was clever.
lmaooo
how much was it ?
PHILANTHROPIST, right. Must be nice to get away with inhumane torture at the hands of fraud. High society huh.
Insane amount of money! It was so much he used to get monthly salary so he would get more tax so he pays his fair share to give back to Iceland. He was the highest earner and monthly tax contributor in Iceland
Nice Video! I enjoy finally seeing something like this about this man on TH-cam!
However, I think, if you would cut down the many many swear words and insults which I feel like make up about 30% of this video, Someone who loves Elon would be more incentivized to listen more closely. I would also enjoy seeing some more sources for the many Points you make. That would make this video much simpler to take serious. And the points you bring up should be enough to open the eyes to many.
I am sorry if I sound like an absolute snob, but in a time where facts seem less and less important, I find these things quite important and I think they could improve your content even more.
Apart from that this video was really entertaining and fun to watch!
Thanks!
Kill the messenger!
An Elon fan told me a few months ago that he had removed all CP from the website, I pointed out that he actually halfed the team who remove this type of content and actually it is more common on the platform now. The person then claimed that all the people who worked on it before were leftists who love CP even though they were employed to remove it. Then even though I said there should be more people removing CP from the website, the Elon fan claimed I love CP and then ran away from the conversation... This is the mind of an Elon fan in this day and age.
it's like a cult
You clowns keep posting this comment everywhere. Are you even real or a bot?
Imagine going to Mars and living in a whole colony of them.

@@beachcomber2008 take it easy there buddy...writing in different fonds just tells me that you *really* like getting your points across
I knew about almost all these facts years ago. All my friends called me a hater so I just stopped talking anytime they talk about him, I saw clearly everyone was deceived. Glad people are starting to realize.
Many of my 'friends' are hypnotized by the wealth he has, and believe that equals success. I've stopped voicing my opinions, because it's nice to have some people in my life. Stop the planet, I want to get off.

@@alexphoenix9208 I sometimes think I am doing something horribly wrong for not having any friends or any other similar kind of relationship. Then I am reminded of people who call people they have the most massive disagreements with their friend.

A nugget of wisdom dating back to the Great Depression: "If you're so smart, why aren't you rich?"
Or just be born dumb and rich
I remember listening to a conversation Elon was having with staff about how he was intending to run Twitter. He sounded incomprehensibly arrogant and my family had eaten up his lies for a long time until the evidence has amounted of his hypocrisy and bad faith.

Yeah, he bought shares and became the ceo of a lot of already successful business by doing so, and he actually killed a lot of companies he was on the boards of due to his incompetence. Also, a lot of companies he nearly killed are only still alive as governments gave them funding as they saw too much value in what they made

For the record,
Elon Musk did not invent the concept of Electric cars
He just worked damn hard to find a way to mass produce them and make them feasible
That's not to suggest he's not a Genius. But he's riding the wave of a lot of other pioneers to do all the things he's managed to take to entire new levels.
I love your writing, in particular "the man who revolutionized the way we crash cars" made me sub

Fact; Teslas are literally the safest vehicles on the road as rated by the NHTSB and insurance institute.
Corrections for this sad opinion video;
First off, "Geezer" needs to do actual research into Musk. I've probably done less research than you and somehow know more verifiable facts than he does about this man. He needs to stop looking in the corporate media corners for "information" because clearly they have a biased agenda that he doesn't quite understand yet.
Secondly, I am not a blind "fanboy" of Elon Musk as it's clear he's not a perfect individual and at the very least should get off social media entirely, because clearly he can't really handle it very well.
Thirdly, He did NOT grow up with "emerald wealth" as that happened after he left South Africa with his family. If he had grown up in wealth he wouldn't have been on social welfare in Canada and would have his college paid for and wouldn't have had to sleep on the floor of an office he rented in Silicon Valley when he first started programming as he was indeed self-made because if he had money the whole time that wouldn't have happened and he would have sold his first program easily.
He was indeed self-made in the sense that several programs during his time in silicon valley became valuable and sought after so he sold them to buy Solar City, Lotus/Tesla and started SpaceX (spending all his money). Hell, when he was 15 he wrote a video game and sold it for a few hundred bucks so even at a young age he was very intelligent, which nearly cost him his life in South Africa, which was yet another reason his Mother took them to Canada. That and they didn't want to be associated with apartheid as they did not agree with that. This is something Elon has said many times but of course you didn't know that did you? Good research Geezer!
Logically, Geezer needs to ask himself about some factual inaccuracies he presented in this low budget, poorly produced "opinion" piece (because it's clear he didn't do his research);
Ask yourself this; if Musk did indeed grow up with "emerald mine money" would he have been on social welfare in an apartment in Toronto with his Mother and brother?
Why didn't he get all his college paid for if he came from wealth?
Why was he homeless and why did he sleep on the floor of the office space he rented in silicon valley before the sale of any of his programs if he always "had money"?
If Musk actually had money, why would he spend all of his money on SolarCity Tesla and SpaceX and not use other people's money which is what all the other douchebag wealthy do to mitigate their risk?
Why would anyone with money spend all of their money on things that they believe are important as opposed to spend others money on things that they think will make a profit?
In summary, I can see Geezer scratching his head and wondering why he posted this "opinion piece" of Musk without doing any actual unbiased research, or being foolish enough to follow whatever corporate media sources he used. Doesn't anyone understand by now that corporate media can't be trusted with any grain of truth as it promotes a narrative of the billionaire class? I hate to break it to you but Musk was never part of that class and doesn't act as such now.
In fact, he said many times in interviews that he doesn't care if he makes money as he has things that he wants to accomplish. Sounds like a typical silver spoon billionaire right? LOL Yes, he has money now but clearly he never grew up with it because if he did his life would have been vastly different. Clearly, Geezer is ignorant of his actual early life.
Evidence, logic and reason are beautiful things huh? Geezer should try it sometime...
Way too many forced joke/insults for me. Good coverage of Elons retardation though
Teslas are the safest cars on the road
A perfect example of his genius is Hyperloop, a train supposed to levitate on airjets... inside a vacuum tunnel, obviously impossible, but that didn't stop Elon from ripping it off of an old failed patent, resulting in sabotaging plans for environmentally friendly public rails in California.

@@kittyhooch1it does seem to make some sense to me, but I haven’t done any calculations on there methods though, so I might be wrong. Are you looking at the Hyperloop Alpha paper? I am not saying they’ve solved all the engineering challenges yet, but the only main problem I have with the project is their earthquake mitigation system. Am I missing something?

You're missing that Halli and quite a few others haf what would best be described as poisoned clauses in their contracts.
Halli specifically sold his company to Twitter and had the payment given out as wages over time so that he would pay the maximum amount of tax possible (which is why he's so popular). Firing him would mean Twitter would have to pay the entire lump sum to him immediately as well as a hefty severance and breach of contract fee.
There are a number of other employees at the company that have similar Deadman switches in their contracts, and Musk attempted to fire them all before HR managed to put out the fire and get Musk to personally retract his words.
Sigh. As any/every 5-year old can tell you, "When ego supersedes actual ability/talent, you in trouble". Just sayin'.

If your dad had put $50k into Microsoft in 1990, then rolled it into Apple in 2001, then rolled it into Nvidia in 2008, he'd also be a billionaire. That's only 3 investments. You don't have to be all that smart to have done that, just lucky.
I used to work at a semi-conductor factory and we dealt with vaccuums alot, everyone in the engineering department would laugh at his ridiculous hyperloop plans. The idea of pumping down hundreds of miles and putting people in it is crazy. To sum it up simply, vaccuum pumps do not pump out air, they spin and stop air going back into the chamber. This is why it can take hours to pump down relatively small chambers, you're literally waiting for the air particles to bounce around and find their way to the pump. That's before getting to leak checks, you can clean seals in a clean room and swear blind you're good just to find dirt not visible to the human eye is stopping the vaccuum. And leak checking is done with helium. The idea of a train in a vaccuum is older than the idea for planes but everyone knew it wasn't feasible, nearly everyone anyway.
The hyperloop was never going to have a hard vacuum. More like low pressure.
@@incognitotorpedo42I think they purposely misunderstand.
WHEN HE SAID HE DID NOT KNOW ABOUT THE GREATEST INVENTOR EVER TESLA --- I THOUGHT HE WAS JOKING BUT NO HE THEN TRIED TO AVOID THE QUESTION AND WALKED OFF.
why know tesla? he just needed his name. Musk and tesla couldn't be further apart.
There's centuries of evolution between the 2 where power hungry people like Musk could figure out how to take all credit for inventions of real geniuses. All geniuses at Tesla and SpaceX are locked away somewhere in those companies. Their goal is to bring glory to their parasitic overlord, instead of elsewhere working on meaningful goals.
Elon's dad also paid for his American education. He also didn't have to work while at school so let's add that in there as well.
Elon musk has literal daddy issues, fatherless traits all over him. His daddy basically carried him with a silverpsoon up his ass and he has zero gratitude for him. Now don't get me wrong, his dad is probably a dick. But when push comes to shove, he gave his son everything he needed even if he wasn't nice about it. He NEVER left him out to dry. His dad had an illegal emerald mine ("informal mine" sounds very very dubious) to make sure his college and rent was paid for in the usa.
I wish I had a dad that could pay for me to get educated. But I properly would have flunked school anyway. But realizing that does not make not jealous of Elon.
And how many college students do work while at school? As someone who slaved from 15 years old all the way until graduating from college to pay for his education I can tell you not many. Most have parents that payed for their education and/or lived off loans.

I think it pretty clear he started he gravitated to companies with large speculation possibilities, which happens to be the transportation tech sector. People misunderstood his interest in these areas for forward thinking and benevolence, when it was obvious that transportation tech and energy production are two areas that are going to need to change in the near future. He hired some smart people to build an average electric car, promised a shit ton of futuristic stuff, and relied on California laws that force car companies to pay him for each car he builds and sells. Tesla was doomed with these government hand-outs. Then the pandemic happened, a bunch middle class white collar workers with bloated bank-accounts, nothing to do, and they invested in tesla. Then he began cashing out, destroying the stock and leaving the world with defective cars, rockets, and social media.
He also made the worst build i've ever seen in Elden Ring. He had 2 shields, less than 40 Vigor, had a Moonveil and he was fat rolling.
Dual shield wield is the ultimate tank! 😂
Excellent, I couldn’t have said it better other than including “bollocks” to describe pretty much everything he says. Watch any interview and his body language is screaming at the world he’s just making it up as he goes along. Great CEOs exude confidence and competence, and our man here demonstrates neither.
He's autistic
You're still assuming "great CEO's" are anything else than people that look like they spend 80h/week working contacts, lurking lucrative deals and putting their names on other people's work, while they're actually allowed to do anything with most of their working time and they won't need to justify it.

As an Everyday Astronaut fan I was a little confused when Elon brought it up as 'he was thinking of it as they were talking' whereas the conversation he has really looked like it was an outside influence.
Love your Docs Geezer! I was wondering if I wanted to start making video Essays where would I start and how can I gather the information?

As a designer I must say I meet those kinda People often. I was like full on capitalist till I had years of experience working for them. Not maybe level of elon musk but wealthy people. Often they will sell you a story about how poor they were than you meet their parents and they were very well off. . But that is not the problem. Problem is they often will take credit for YOUR IDEAS. Kinda sad because than they give you a paper to sign so you cant even talk about the project. Than you hear Praise to them for things they never did. Sad AF and you never understand it if you dont work for those people.

"Microwaved Kevin Durand" is my new favorite Elon description, although Durand is much better looking and a better actor. I did a deep dive into Musk's past like a lot of people did after the Twitter situation. Holy crap. His history is mind-blowing and not in a good way. I think my favorite story is how Musk nearly killed himself and Peter Thiel when he bought a brand new $1 million McLaren with his Zip2 money, did not insure it, and immediately crashed it after turning to Thiel and saying, "Watch this." The 2 men were extremely lucky to come out of that uninjured. They had to hitchhike to their meeting. There are so many terrible stories about this guy, lying about everything, overpromising in the extreme, screwing people over (including the founders of Tesla), etc. that it's amazing so many worship him as a god. He's not even a demigod. He is also the least clever troll on the internet. He clearly thinks he's a genius but the evidence proves otherwise. He's a genius opportunist for sure.
This channel is amazing. So clever, well written and narrated.
Ha! Not even close!
Corrections for this sad opinion video;
First off, "Geezer" needs to do actual research into Musk. I've probably done less research than you and somehow know more verifiable facts than he does about this man. He needs to stop looking in the corporate media corners for "information" because clearly they have a biased agenda that he doesn't quite understand yet.
Secondly, I am not a blind "fanboy" of Elon Musk as it's clear he's not a perfect individual and at the very least should get off social media entirely, because clearly he can't really handle it very well.
Thirdly, He did NOT grow up with "emerald wealth" as that happened after he left South Africa with his family. If he had grown up in wealth he wouldn't have been on social welfare in Canada and would have his college paid for and wouldn't have had to sleep on the floor of an office he rented in Silicon Valley when he first started programming as he was indeed self-made because if he had money the whole time that wouldn't have happened and he would have sold his first program easily.
He was indeed self-made in the sense that several programs during his time in silicon valley became valuable and sought after so he sold them to buy Solar City, Lotus/Tesla and started SpaceX (spending all his money). Hell, when he was 15 he wrote a video game and sold it for a few hundred bucks so even at a young age he was very intelligent, which nearly cost him his life in South Africa, which was yet another reason his Mother took them to Canada. That and they didn't want to be associated with apartheid as they did not agree with that. This is something Elon has said many times but of course you didn't know that did you? Good research Geezer!
Logically, Geezer needs to ask himself about some factual inaccuracies he presented in this low budget, poorly produced "opinion" piece (because it's clear he didn't do his research);
Ask yourself this; if Musk did indeed grow up with "emerald mine money" would he have been on social welfare in an apartment in Toronto with his Mother and brother?
Why didn't he get all his college paid for if he came from wealth?
Why was he homeless and why did he sleep on the floor of the office space he rented in silicon valley before the sale of any of his programs if he always "had money"?
If Musk actually had money, why would he spend all of his money on SolarCity Tesla and SpaceX and not use other people's money which is what all the other douchebag wealthy do to mitigate their risk?
Why would anyone with money spend all of their money on things that they believe are important as opposed to spend others money on things that they think will make a profit?
In summary, I can see Geezer scratching his head and wondering why he posted this "opinion piece" of Musk without doing any actual unbiased research, or being foolish enough to follow whatever corporate media sources he used. Doesn't anyone understand by now that corporate media can't be trusted with any grain of truth as it promotes a narrative of the billionaire class? I hate to break it to you but Musk was never part of that class and doesn't act as such now.
In fact, he said many times in interviews that he doesn't care if he makes money as he has things that he wants to accomplish. Sounds like a typical silver spoon billionaire right? LOL Yes, he has money now but clearly he never grew up with it because if he did his life would have been vastly different. Clearly, Geezer is ignorant of his actual early life.
Evidence, logic and reason are beautiful things huh? Geezer should try it sometime...
The title should be The Most Idiotic Narcisitic Genius.🤣🤣🤣
