Musk is a fascist, a racist, against labor rights, anti-democratic, and an outright anarcho-capitalist. To admire him or praise his work is to admire and praise these qualities. I have lost followers for this take on here. Good riddance to bad rubbish. Ancaps are inhumane scum.

I don’t agree with these views but I wouldn’t bail on someone for having these, ie I’m not unfollowing you. I doubt there’s a good future where we all agree all the time. I think his work and progress have been massively important in advancing humans in a couple dimensions, but he also makes weird af choices

Thanks. Appreciate it. I think I've read your views on his work in the past. I don't agree that those advancements benefit humanity as much as you believe it. Which is fine! My big qualm with musk is how he actively seeds violent hatred and division on his platform. It's been a regular occurrence.

It’s called audience capture, and in this case said audience has been captured by an algorithm designed for the sole purpose of boosting controversy and outrage He is just conducting the choir

I love this analogy. Where I would line up with Max on this is that he could have played any music with his choir and instead of something awesome, like Led Zepplin, he seems to choose the Barney song. He makes odd choices on how to conduct his choir imo.

Indeed. It's funny how I've personally evaded the controversy and outrage. Everybody talks about it on Twitter, but I personally don't see it until somebody links to it or I dig into musk's replies. Tailoring your feed really works...
