Why I love Elon Musk
November 24th, 2025I see the character assassination. But I'm not buying it. I've seen to much.
Elon Bad!
No. Name one person on Earth who has done more to help people in impoverished situations than Elon. For this to be true, they will have to have done more than create the capability for the internet to reach their location.
Go.
Ghandi?
Really? A single cell phone in a villiage with Starlink can give the whole community access to the worlds information. Only because one of Elon's companies created space internet. Seems pretty philanthropic to me.
But he's bad because he's rich. So he must be taking advantage of people.
Nope. He got there with exceptional engineering ability. He created far-out, ambitious noble missions that make the world's top talent eager to assist in. He's been building one order of magnitude at a time. From nothing to $XXM Zip2, $XXXM Paypal, ... SpaceX, Boring Company, Neuralink, X, Tesla currently with the lead at $1T.
He's not a hard worker.
Think logically. He got to be so accomplished by being lazy?
He's immature.
Good. Me too.
He threw the Hitler sign up.
So? You think he meant it? Can you provide more examples of this type of behavior so we can identify a pattern?
Buying Twitter was a mistake.
Banning and filtering visibility was being abused by NGOs on all social media platforms. Elon put a stop to that. This is crazy. First, they would have to realize that Social Media needs to be controlled. Then they would need to establish a plan so that the government doesn't control it, (because that is illegal). Then they need to set up a bunch of companies or departments of existing companies to take the initiative of fact-checking everything. So for that, they need access to all information, which they got and also millions of dollars in funding, which they got from ... checks notes... taxpayers.
But he supports Trump.
Trump showed bravery after being shot. Bravery, I have never personally seen from any other President. After they ran a decade-long character assassination campaign against Trump, banned him from social media, created multiple hoaxes (which he could only defend from on TruthSocial). Who is Elon supposed to align with? He held long form interviews with RFK jr and Vivek Ramswami before endorsing Trump. And the candidates were Trump and Joe Biden Kamala Harris.
This gets kind of crazy, but they were just letting people in the country. Waving them in by the thousands. Kamala took on the role of "Border Czar". Not through the legal process where scrutiny could applied to assess the quality of humans being let in. They came in the tresspassing way. My understanding is they were told they were tresspassing and then let go.
This is nuts. Our countries are our home and native land. Do you like people trespassing at your home? Do you like it when they then stay forever? And then we are gaslit into believing we should be more welcoming.
Bottom line is Elon is the greatest creator with the most capability of any human on Earth right now. If Earth doesn't become Elon's world, then Mars will. And he rightly deserves it. Creation and creators are 100% not the enemy. I pledge to side with the creators. It is the destroyers, the power abusers, we need to be cautious of.
