You joke, but the PBS doc posted earlier literally had someone reiterate that inability to figure him out.
The documentary mentions that in context of the "old" Elon Musk, then narratively it shows him transform after he finds an "unlikely ally in Donald Trump".

Per Frontline, the event that drove him off the deep end was having his California Tesla factory ordered closed during Covid shutdowns.

The orders that he flouted and faced no consequences for violating?

(I have some idea of how little that narrows it down.)

The documentary, yes, but the person they were interviewing was dead serious.

The headline gets it mocked, but the jist of the article was "look, Elon seems to be AGAINST a bunch of stuff, but he's never really come out as FOR anything. So really, we can't know what his politics are because all he does is just mock things and post against stuff".

That's the GOP in a nutshell. They aren't for much, but they sure are against absolutely everything. The party of freedom are the ones banning everything including the right for LGBTQ people to exist.

Yep, I and several other goons (you were probably one) reported that specific post, and yet...
Literally posting the 14 Words is not enough to have it removed.

Heyo! I was also one to report it and got that message like 2 days later saying "we're sorry this isn't banned but..."

Why does Musk not understand common sayings? Its like he's heard them and just repeats them at random but doesn't understand the context.

If it's the first investigation under a new Act, I gotta imagine they're out for blood. Gotta make it look like it does something, and Elon's an easy target.

Elon is still taking the position that his 24-hour legal response requirements are only if the regulator posts the example in a public tweet for him to mock rather than by using Twitter's (legally-required) reporting feature he destaffed.

You don't need to pity gently caress them. They get plenty of stimulation from their heads being so thoroughly up their rear end.
