Fucking piece of shit. He provides no value to society. People at his companies may, but he's fucking shit.

I agree fuck musk but you are straight lying, he is the founder of SpaceX and spaceX is the most important company he owns I would say.

The incredible engineers at SpaceX are why it's such an amazing entity though, not musk rat.

Ok but he straight up bought other things, like Tesla

The ironic part is, despite being a large shareholder of a company named Tesla, he's a modern-day Thomas Edison.

He's literally one of the biggest drains on society in existence. He uses as many resources as thousands upon thousands of people produce.
