Serious question,Why do we think Leon’s a genius? I know I always have because that is what I heard.. it’s what has been said. When I hear him speak he does not seem to SOUND or speak like someone of even above average intelligence,let alone genius.Is he a self proclaimed genius like tRump? - ThreadSky

Yes…..like trump he inherited his daddy’s wealth, and invested in companies already started by others.
He did NOT start Tesla or did he start Space X….he just bought into them

So, I’m embarrassed to say I bought the hype that categorized him “Quirky Genius” .. although he was NEVER my cup of tea. Now I find out he’s just basically a weirdo. Let me amend that statement.. a weirdo with money.

You’re not alone. I’ve always thought he was a dick…,but appreciated the Space X program. I watched the short series when he sent civilians into orbit.
But when he pushed his way into OUR politics…..he completely lost the little respect I had for him

Yes. He's an entrepreneur, not a founder of any of these companies. They weren't his ideas but he would even call reporters who didn't mention him in articles written about Tesla, etc. He has Aspbergers which probably lends to his social awkwardness and he is smart, but a genius, he likely is not.

I’m of the opinion that he is NOT on the spectrum.
He’s apparently never been officially diagnosed…..but I know quite a few neurodivergent folks and what they have that Elon doesn’t is a moral compass….this dude is just an asshole without any morals

I've just heard that said, by him I believe. But, like your say, it doesn't mean anything if he's never been diagnosed. 🤷‍♀️

That’s just his excuse because everyone thinks he’s an asshole…..

😆 No doubt.

Bingo

I did not know of the calling reporters piece, that certainly smacks of trumps MO, ( fake John Barron) I knew he claimed to be a creator of Tesla, when in all actuality he has exactly zero to do with the creation or development. I never realized his degrees are from Wharton, home of buy a degree.

I think it was on one of Chris Norlund's videos on his YouTube channel. It does sound a lot like Trump's behavior. At least Trump didn't do it under his own name. 🤷‍♀️

It became very apparent during the Thai cave rescue saga that he's the opposite of a 'genius'.
