"The line between good and evil runs through every human heart" except that as all the civil guardrails have been removed, unbridled capitalism has reached its consequences of extreme wealth disparity, resource exhaustion and waste accumulation. Humans can't be trusted with such power.

What about energy? Water is more renewable than energy. And clean water takes energy.

Isaacson has written about Musk, Jobs, Einstein, Da Vinci etc. while all men that may have all been rich, that is missing the common thread of being great innovators that changed history. Money was mostly a side effect. You don't seem to appreciate innovation.

You haven't produced any evidence. You're sounding like a collection of accusing tweets that only appeared when he flipped politically.

I agree except the first sentence.
He was/is a rationalist, not really partisan. He's been irrational too. He would say the democrats made him a republican, although I don't think he's partisan at heart.
There's a thread of apartheid South African influence in these big tech bros.

Walter Isaacson shadowed him for 2 years www.gc.cuny.edu/news/not-all...
He flipped his politics I think because his businesses were ignored or rejected by state and fed democrats; and because of stuff with his trans child and Grimes.
Before, was widely regarded as 1 in a generation entrep/engineer

Where is this documented? These kind of accusations only appeared when he flipped his politics.

Sounds like you have no idea how hard it is to build a company, engineer a product, manufacture and sell it, especially when it is redefining a whole category and disrupting massive old companies.
And that's just one of his companies.

No I actually enjoy his intellectual geeky humour.
If I ignore his trillion bonus, buying the election for Trump, ruining Twitter, Mars nonsense, cutting USAID NGOs etc
A pretty big list I know. Maybe I'm weird in compartmentalizing like that.

I don't believe in hate at all actually. I'm still very disappointed for his supporting Trump, seems to have lost his mind in a lot of ways.
In that period he & his business was rejected by the Democrats, his child came out trans, he broke up with Grimes. Seemed to give up on past values.

As a startup software engineer, 10 years ago I was amazed at his engineering and entrepreneurial achievements, and inspired by his EV decarb strategy. I'm a lefty, but not going to hate someone for being rich.
However much has happened, I don't know who he is today, but I still find him entertaining

2) you first hated him

He was funny enough to be invited to host SNL, and he was funny on the show. He was funny on the recent All In Podcast.
The joke makes a great point on how GDP is a poor measure of human progress.
Yes he has too much $ and power.
A journalist in The Guardian should be more capable of nuance.

I had two main friends in school.
Years after school I was catching up with one, walking down a street. Suddenly we saw the other guy on the other side of the road, who we thought was in prison.
I yelled "X is rocking in the free world!" and we ran over for a random reunion.
That's my favourite.
