    Wait? Do you like actually believe he doesn’t care about humanity and getting to mars and lowering the chances of human extinction and advancing technology to make our lives better and finding out the secrets of the universe and he’s just doing this for money? Do you really think he is motivated by MONEY? Cmon, bruh.

    I think you REALLY REALLY do not understand what his deal is. Like, I have a feeling you can’t even imagine what he’s thinking about.

        If you feel dirty, sorry. I do, however genuinely believe you and a lot of other people do not fully understand Elon and his motivations and thought process (if at all).

        Do you think it’s possible getting rich is not his ultimate goal, but a secondary one?

          There are many, many organizations that could benefit from his billions. You brought up his (undiagnosed) autism. How much has he given to autism charities?

            Have you ever had a thought that allocating his money may have less of a long term positive impact if he just donated it to various charities instead of allocating it towards more long term goals? Not saying it would or wouldn’t, but did you even consider that?

                I can’t think of any examples on top of my head, but after watching tens of hours of his interviews and such, I can asure you he himself believes his money would do more net good how he is allocating it now than if he just donated it all.

                    Link me a comment where I was defending him for being antisemite. I’ll wait!
