I do remember for years and years wondering why everyone was thinking this guy was such a genius when he just seemed like a normal business guy with some wild ideas.
So in a way I was wrong: He is not normal. He’s insane.

I don’t “remember” anybody ever having a crush on Elon Musk. Certainly not me. Ugh.

Crush? No
I thought he was cool, but then I learned more about him. He’s really a piece of smelly greasy piece of shit

Fucking hell. It’s like everyone on this thread completely forgot this whole website was obsessed with Elon and how amazing they thought he was.
I’m happy to admit that years ago until the cave disaster/pedo slandering bullshit I genuinely thought he was a bit of an eccentric billionaire that was trying to advance us even tho he had some odd views/ideas
I’ve since been disabused of that notion and admit he’s just a complete fuckstain and we’d all be better off if he went the Howard Hughes route.
nekoeuge on
At some point he looked like genius inventor to a person like me who didn’t do any research. Then he started doing crazy shit openly and all illusions disappeared.
I kinda agree with poster if I read it in non-sexualized way: 5 or 10 years ago musk was much more popular and/or respected, maybe undeservedly

“Real life tony stark durrr”…”saving us from global warming”…”omg a flamethrower durrr durr”…this is literally all of reddit opinions until you found out he was slightly conservative.
Don’t lie…you dorks worshipped this man 7 years ago.
gskein on
No I don’t.
Sprzout on
At one time, I thought he was awesome because he was pushing so many great projects like Tesla Auto and SpaceX.
Then I learned that he’s become a giant douche canoe and was just hiding it better when he was younger.

Ngl, I liked the guy. I even thought of getting a Tesla… I’m glad I didn’t buy one before he unveiled his human garbageness
purple_plasmid on
He looks like this kid in my 4th grade class that told me he doesn’t like pizza or chocolate — unlike Elon though, he was a nice kid, just decided our interests were incompatible for friendship

Check my record, I never trusted that fuck even if when the reddit mob would down vote me to oblivion for saying so.
OldManSteveRogers on
Nope. Like several others I once believed he was a futurist who was going to use his wealth to propel science forward. Now I see he’s a fucking ass clown with an entire social platform to amplify his pathetic whimpering. This man child makes fucking Bond villains look believable.
RedicusFinch on
I will admit I was a fanboy for a bit. I just really liked the idea of this guy giving everyone the finger and trying to make progress. Like I really thought he was going to be the reason we would go to Mars.
But then I realised we were both idiots. He just has a ton of money.
XiMaoJingPing on
Reddit, this sub still has a crush on him
Iola_Morton on
From what I remember, most people thought he was a massive douchebag, hence angering him to embrace MAGA.

Sea_Art3391 on
I used to think he was interesting and competent due to his involvment with Tesla, Starlink and SpaceX, but his behaviour on social media is just so incredibly childish that i’ve just lost all respect for him.
Especially now that he is licking Trump’s boots, he is more insufferable than ever.
Edit: Just to clarify, i don’t see why anyone would have a crush on him besides him being insanely rich (which makes you a very shallow person), and i certainly didn’t mean “interesting” in a romantic kind of way. I did however think he was rather unique for a billionare.

Dat_Lion_Der on
Not too proud to admit that I rode that hypetrain but then I realized he’s an intolerable douchebag. As awesome as it is that companies he owns are making space travel more of a regular thing. (The amazing scientists, engineers and workers are doing it, not him!) He’s gonna bring apartheid to space. Fuck that guy.
Lost_All_Senses on
This just makes me curious if he was always a weird douche or if that was just when I started hearing about it. The best I can do for him is that no one I knew had any idea who he was before they thought he sucked.

No?
melonsango on
Nope. He’s always been a repulsive dweeb.
zarfle2 on
Nope. Never. Not at all.
I just figured he was another Steve Jobs whose greatest claim to fame was allowing other smart people to come up with the good stuff.

I am positive, Elon made this himself.
