Wait, how did I not know before that Elon has kids and named them like robots?

That's so extremely on-brand for his inhuman persona.

@LouisIngenthron
You know he's autistic right?
That ought to sum up many explanations about what he does.
Autistic people have challenges with social interactions.
Which does make buying a social network a mystery.
But even with autism, somehow he's still more human than Zuckerberg.
Maybe that's his justification, if Zuckerborg can do it, he can too.

@skanman I feel like there's something deeply problematic about blaming his douchebaggery on autism.

@LouisIngenthron

I don't know that much about autism but I know it makes social interaction a problem. I'm not a fanboy of his by any stretch of the imagination. I never liked PayPal, no desire for a Tesla, I'm most likely never going to have anything to do with SpaceX, I never had a Twitter before, not about to make one. But the dudes clearly got some issues. I don't know or care well enough to judge him. I don't know or care enough about anybody for that matter to judge them. That's probably one of my problematic issues. 😂

You think autism doesn't play a role in his eccentricities? Also, nobody really cared about his douchebaggyness until he became super successful. Douchebaggery is more rampant than COVID. I got quite a few employees that suffer from it. I probably suffer from it sometimes. But out of all the problems in the world, 1 billionaires personal problems doesn't seem pressing to me in contrast. Anyways Mr. Ingenthron, hope you have a great weekend. 😊
