It does feel unnaturally influenced, I agree. Follow the money, I suppose.
Who stands to gain from twitter and/or elons failure? We can speculate for fun. Certainly Bill Gates, with his half billion short on Tesla. He'd have the money to influence social media. We already know Microsoft games HN from when the CEO was bragging about it to shareholders. So it can be done.
Who else? Oil and Gas probably hate him for Teslas battery tech.
The entire automotive industry would be interested in piling on.
... NASA? That doesn't seem like them but who knows.
Everyone on twitter who already hated him would be doubling down.
Not even slightly jealous. The guy purports to be solving the greatest problems humanity has in some kind of altruistic way. But really he’s built a company selling luxury electric cars to the top 5% which allow us to carry on our bad behaviour for a few more years in a new way. At the same time trying to crush worker rights and sell out to China.
I'm jealous of the ability that he has to do whatever he wants, not the means by which he does it.
I'm over here expecting to lose my house as interest rates crank up, barely able to afford daycare and he's what, pissing off easily upset internet people while doing literally whatever he pleases?

I figure most are just secretly jealous. I am.
