You failed even at that. If you actually wanted to adopt a neutral tone you should have qualified with according to Musk or the like. It's as if you're incapable of posting a single sentence that's not steaming bs.

You know you achieved neutral here when both extremes accuse you of "bothsides"ing the issue.
Until then you have taken a side that can be challenged or supported.

One might. Then again, one might find him to be a thin-skinned narcissist, devoted to bolstering his own bloated ego by claiming competence in subjects far removed from his own area of expertise.
(Just offering a counterpoint to aid with the neutrality).
Did you listen to the linked talk?
I heard him with Joe Rogan and Lex Fridman also.
I must be too stupid to understand what a vacuous scoundrel he really is.

You’re entitled to like who you want. But who wants to be preached to that “if you just listen to Elon Musk you too will become a disciple!”
I was proposing that the members explicitly tell me where I am wrong in seeing above zero value in Musk, and indeed in X, rather than this:

I would suggest that every entity musk has gone into would be better off without his participation. And personal interference in some cases.
Tesla can make cars people would buy without the cult of personality he presents. But without tesla and the others he is but a nobody in the crowd.

I thought I was too far under the radar to attract bot followers, but I see the past week I've been getting a couple of new bot followers a day. I haven't even tweeted anything for months. Such a bad platform.

This was true before Musk bought it. I've never tweeted either, yet for years I've had about 7 followers.

I'm blocking several bots per week. And I actively use it, though not at the rate I did about ten years ago.
There was a short period when I got a few bot followers but then it stopped, pre-Musk. Nothing like this.
If you've never tweeted you wouldn't probably be found, but they're finding old tweets and replies, liking them and following me.
He called a very brave and competent man a paedophile because that man - who had helped save 12 children and their adult supervisor - considered Musk's so-called "plan" unworkable.
I don't need to listen to any lectures from him about anything.
So never forget, never forgive.

Not in my remit to forgive him or not. And forgiveness has nothing to do with it, you are claiming that he is "devoted to a simple model where education leads to competency regardless of origin" his actions show that is a load of crap.
I edited to depersonalise but after your reply.
What I have seen is a cohort who were banned by Dorsey returning with Musk's regime. They had their voices returned. Elon Musk can make jarring mistakes that are fully explored and exposed by main stream media. Main stream media never allow cancelled traditionalists the return of their voice.
You claim that he is "..devoted to a simple model where education leads to competency regardless of origin..", his actions show that is not true.
Do you retract your claim?
