Definitely a fraud, and up until just before the pandemic he had pulled it off pretty remarkably. Then it started to unravel and now everyone can see what a deranged lunatic he is.
I’ve said it many times to people- that was the decisive moment for me.
Prior to that, I’d been giving him the benefit of the doubt but I was sceptical that he was the genius that his fanbois thought he was.
But actually if I think about it- it was when I heard that he’d nicked someone’s drawing/artwork and had used it as a graphic in Teslas without payment that I first thought he was a dick - the “pedo guy” comment just cemented it for me.
My son was hero-worshipping him at the time (he does no longer). I think my younger brother is still something of a Musk fan. He certainly was throughout COVID - kept referencing things that Musk had been saying. Things that demonstrated how little Musk knew about science or medicine.
