Acting like he’s dumb and only succeeded through his father’s money and luck is also ridiculous. I wish people would try to have nuance views on famous people instead of this primitive love or hate dualism.

There is plenty of evidence to suggest that he is an idiot. His handling of Twitter at the very least shows that he is no business genius. I wish people would stop acting like he is some sort of idol. He got where he is off the backs of other people. There is nothing to idolize there.

No one here is acting like is some sort of idol, even though at least half of them did so a couple of years ago, that’s what I’m talking about, basic dualism.
He may be a bad bad boss l, incompetent engineer, and bad human overall but he probably got good some good skills to make the right choices to become one of the richest people. If you think he’s an idiot, then you think he got there only from father’s money and pure luck? If not, then how did he do it, magic?
I’m not defending him, I’m defending reason.

Imagine life without concern and high expectations your dreams will be profitable. No wonder money makes money.
