Elon Musk is having a very bad week.

The man who bought Twitter for $44 billion to secure unaccountable power over public discourse
is discovering what unaccountable power actually looks like when wielded by someone who understands dominance even better than he does.

Trump just stripped SpaceX of a government contract and handed it to Jeff Bezos.

Musk’s response?
Rage-tweeting at Trump officials, including the immortal question
“why are you gay”
—the rhetorical sophistication we’ve come to expect from the richest man-child on the planet having a public meltdown

This article is terrible. It is an opinion article, giving a take on things that happened without even explaining what has happened.
The opinion is based on nothing and does not explain nor justify anything it is saying.
The author is speculating reasons for something, without even explaining what that something is.

I do not like this journalism, please share articles written by better journalists.
