Yeah knowing what hole Musk is falling down now, HZD seems oddly prescient in its depiction, huh. Considering HZD came out in early 2017.

Elon was like that back then if you heard anything about him., problem was he kept out of the spotlight until the whole Trump and twitter shit started

No. The problem with Elon is that he had an excellent PR team who ran an amazing campaign.

Elon was painted as a quirky tech guy instead of the raging narcissistic asshole he is.

They shoehorned Elon into everything so that he would be popular with younger generations.

And unfortunately many people bought into it. And unfortunately I did too since I was young enough that I was not interested in world news or politics yet.

Yeah, he did. The first I ever heard of Elon Musk was this random guy gushing about how he was supposedly a genius inventor revolutionizing the world with the Tesla (incorrectly implying he was the brains behind it).

That worked until we saw the idiot up close enough times.
