A Nazi? Yeah, sure because nothing screams ‘Hitler 2.0’ like building cars and launching rockets. He’s not exactly running on Hitler’s playbook. If he didn't flash that one hand gesture everyone here obsesses over, then what’s the evidence? Maybe I’m just too out of touch with pop culture conspiracy hour, but this sounds like a real stretch.

Dude. Hitler created the Volkswagen Beetle, the V-2 rocket, and built the most modern airforce possible. Kind of exactly like Hitler particularly on these two things.

Right, because building cars and rockets obviously comes with a side of genocide. Got it.
You were the one who described that he didn’t follow the Hitler playbook by giving examples where he clearly followed the “Hitler playbook”. He also has promoted white supremacist #### on his BS platform and did Hitler salutes in front of the entire world. It’s ok to admit you know nothing about Hitler or Musk.
Gee, I dunno. Hanging out with far right political groups in Germany. Preaching eugenics. Performing the Nazi salute multiple times. Running Grok to push antisemitism and praise Hitler (even though he tried to walk it back after the fact). Constantly pushing white supremacy on X. Yeah, he’s a Nazi. Seb Gorka, who also worked for Trump is also a Nazi, as is Trump’s sec of defense.

I didn't know any of this. I will eat my crow.

I didn't know he was promoting white supremacist ####. My mistake.

He has a very specific talent in that he can take in a lot of information and parse it down to first principles to tease out potential pathways others don't see, because they are stuck in the weeds up the chain. This can and has been effective for him to solve problems, but it's also a massive blind spot that has led to no shortage of avoidable mistakes, and stupid blanket philosophies like "the best part is no part", which is why low slung Model 3s with awkward door portals don't have grab handles, and emergency door releases that leave people to die horrible fiery deaths.
It's also why he removed all sensors for FSD except vision, because people drive with vision only(not true) so his cars should, too. Unfortunately it means they are now afraid of shadows, and occasionally plow into emergency vehicles as if they didn't exist.
He's demanded Starship be built so light that it shakes itself to pieces, and then explodes.
I also don't believe he is a very good business person. He's basically a fake nerdy Trump. A bully who has stolen and steamrolled himself to where he is today. You can tell this is true because he basically has no allies in the business world, and anyone who has worked with him ####ing hates his guts. He's an #######.
Plus, ya, the Nazi ####.
He is also audacious. Building out a network of charging stations worldwide to support the EV, launching 1000s of satellites for Starlink, reusable rockets at scale, starting a global ePayment system. Not your typical startups. I don’t know if these were all his ideas and starting with mega-bucks sure helps, but tell me anyone on CP dreams that big let alone acts that big.

And he’s a total dick.
I work with a lot of startups. I can tell you the percentage that have ideas toward and ambitions on changing the entire industry they work in, if not the entire world, is hilariously high.
His startups quite literally are your typical startups. The only real difference between the winners and the losers is $$$. Not even how good or workable the idea is. Just funding.

Do they have ideas that require spending 100s of million dollars on physical stuff in order to be viable?
