let me explain something, maybe other anons don't get this either so it's worth going over. elon comes from old money. his dad was involved with several business, including owning shares of an emerald mine back in apartheid south africa. elon and his brother are retards, because even if the dad was reasonably smart his mother was a retard. her book ("a woman makes a plan") is pure retardation, she doesn't actually make a plan in the book, it's just a puff piece about how amazing she is without any good advice in there. keep in mind that she could've paid someone to write something that wasn't retarded. anyway, elon and his brother made his money in the dotcom, back when you could rent a server, throw together a site with html and sell it for $3 million to some greedy and clueless boomer who thought it was going to 30 or 300 million. there's no evidence that either of them can even code. both dotcom companies, people who took over the code after the sale said it all had to be rewritten. there's the infamous "stack" video where elon is trying to send technical and gets stumped and can't explain why he thinks twitter needs a complete rewrite. anyway, the days at tesla reveal his behaviour more, he didn't found it. he offered the two main guys money and also to help them raise more money in exchange to be chairman of the board. he then did a hostile takeover, where he had people including one of the original founders fired for calling him out. tesla then hangs on because of all the government subsidies (not just carbon credits but government giving them money to build factories for local jobs). he has a history of going back on these deals, even hiring thousands of h1b pajeets and replacing american workers. so the tl;dr is that this guy has used the same trick of pretending and then ruthlessly attacking / censoring his critics. it worked for him at the exec level at these companies when he had leverage. he foolishly thinks it'll work with video games.
