for a while Musk really did seem like the most relatable billionaire. yeah, if i had that kind of money I'd want to go to space and make sports cars, etc. Turned out that was just PR, and what he really wanted out of life was to be seen as funny by teenaged Nazis on the Internet

Then it immediately went downhill when he called that British diver trying to save Thai kids "pedo guy" for saying his submarine idea was a PR stunt.
It's crazy how often I see this come up.
The 'techie' solution already existed in rebreathers and sea scooters.
His angry insistence on a submarine Reminded me of 'The Dictator'

(Just a coincidence the top comment is about Elon)
And you would realise the answer was: cars (VW Beetle), Rockets (V1, V2, V3) and computing (IBM’s punch card and records and Enigma).
So really the signs were all there, you just needed to connect the dots.
Your description, however, got damn close.

he gives off "college senior who goes to high school parties" vibes
Speaking of;
Yo MUSK, stop being a pussy with your sublingual bullshit, if you want the REAL masculine energy you'll inject that stuff STRAIGHT INTO YOUR VEINS.
awful post 10/10 thanks
We all wanted that for Musk.
That's why we can't have nice things either
Why did you think that the persona of a man-child made him relatable to Western men?
Oh well, you get the shovel and I’ll get the quick lime.
But then there was that study that suggests that being rich causes actual brain damage so maybe I'd end up like them
That was literally how I knew of him for years.
(My most commented on tweet was something along the lines of "there is no societal advancement that offsets atrocity", and whooo boy, the number of people who think Only Musk!)
He wants people to "love" him but is incapable of actually engendering that emotion (at least not in anybody who isn't his techbro/incel/Nazi base) so now he's all bitter and blowing it all up.
A petulant child if you will.
I mean he was even written into a Star Trek episode as one of the most forward thinking people in history.
But also: fuck Elon Musk. Fuck that Nazi bastard straight to hell.
Elon is cringe incarnate. Even the specific edge-lord way he turned Nazi is cringe.
You have to be self deluded on so many levels.
So I never supported him.
But I never realized just how petty, empty, and conniving he could be. That's what makes him dangerous.

Also he looks completely different than he does now and that was jarring too
Honestly, they shoulda charged more.
Let future generations cringe when we try to show them our media.
Let it stand so we can point and it and say "this was how sweaty the dude was, how desperate he was to be liked. He coulda stopped here and flown under the radar."
Yeah yeah I know, long since peaked. Force of habit and passive streaming. Still, that one was extra cringe. Even for its time.
Him and his dad learning from the formation of the nazi youth.
Then it got so much worse.
His current teenage posse is just a test run.
What he really wants is to create the eugenics version. Only the best Nazis.
Isn't it hilarious that those kids can see right through his obvious bullshit, while some of the world's most prominent financiers and politicians are pensively watching for his next brilliant move.
It makes zero sense at all to me.
