Holy hell this is embarrassing. I nearly pre-ordered a cybertruck several years ago before Musk lost his mind and there were few EVs on the market. Glad I got my Chevy instead - it's a rock solid EV.

Elon lost his mind and was calling people "pedo guy" for saving kids before the cybertruck had preorders available.

It's kind of funny, in a gallow's humor way. It's like people saying at any point after the first month of that first magat administration,"I was with him up to now..." I'm happy that they finally come around, but hoooleeey!

It isn't easy extracting oneself from a cult. It took me too long to stop admiring the shitbag as well. I've always been thrilled with space exploration, and I let too much slide as a result. He killed my enthusiasm for it, and that's unforgivable.

A lot of the things he says about space are fun as thought experiments. Whether or not they work out or are good ideas. Terraforming Mars sounds interesting. Using a methane evaporation blanket to cool starship during re-entry without a heat shield? sounds SUPER neat. Even landing and re-using a booster was deemed impractical, or not financially viable. That's the thrill of exploration part. Getting all belligerent when proven wrong makes it hard to get excited about things. It turns into "If this doesn't work out, Elon is going to have a crybaby fit over it." instead of "Oh wow, thats a super cool ambitious idea." Part of taking moonshots is that sometimes you're wrong, but his ego is too out of control to ever admit he is wrong.

Personally my enthusiasm for space exploration was killed by how mediocre KSP2 was, but Elon definitely didn't help.

That really was the day the mask fell off.

He was quite well liked up to that point.

I haven't heard of that one but just Googled it. What a weirdo.

The cars where garbage long before he lost his mind

Glad you saw sence. It's hard to know what in Tesla is Musk and what is Tesla. Considering that half the staff at Tesla have to Elon proof the factory so he doesn't stop production because he doesn't like the colour of the robots or something. The cybertruck is all musk.

They had upper management specifically to distract him like a toddler
