This is a guy whose cars are models S-3-X-Y and named his exploration firm SpaceX because it sounds like Space Sex.

The quote.

You can tell because I referred to “fabricating quotes”, as opposed to “fabricating huts” or something.

Maybe it’s a beginners’ guide to understanding English you need.
The quotes are all there and nothing has been "fabricated". People can read them for themselves.

They certainly can, and let’s hope they do before you get the thread deleted.

I never realised this before. It's like he's emotionally trapped in his adolescence. Maybe this is why he attracts so much fanboyism and pitiful incels - they can relate to him.

There is a certain class of person who finds accusations of racism offensive, if only there was a word to describe them...
I find unfounded accusations of racism offensive and believe the more it’s bandied about the more it makes people less sensitive to actual racism.

"Unfounded accusations of racism" and "actual racism" are interesting phrases with regards to Mr Musk

“Unfounded”. :roll:

Ok. What about the judge and jury that made the award of over $3m to a black Tesla worker for the institutional racism he endured at work? Are they all woke lefties, too?

People would be universally impressed by SpaceX if the project leader didn't post some tweets that particularly offended them.
What a bizarre world we live in currently
Just quoting this to define that I was discussing space x as opposed to defending the guy who triggers you on twitter

Acting like an oversensitive babyman troll on his own platform, doesn't help. Also, banging on about 'anything goes' free speech while deleting Tweets and accounts from people he doesn't like, isn't an endearing quality either. I'd have a lot of respect for him if he wasn't such a massive hypocrite. Hypocrisy is one thing I cannot abide, whether it comes from the right, left or centre, or indeed some bod I've just met.
Twitter literally employed the FBI before he bought it.
They banned the POTUS
Where was this energy when all that happened?
The thing about hypocrites is that they don't really know they are hypocrites apparently
