Yeah, it seemed pretty balanced and well thought out:

"Ploy for credibility, retreating even deeper into fantasy, pretense of reality, pure fantasy, contained within a world of fantasy, retreating into misinformation-fuelled fantasy world, runaway ego, less palatable, self-soothing fantasy bubble, fake statistics, blown deadlines, litany of bullshit, chronic inability, unprecedented publish delusion or deception, having drawn a poor hand, financial-cognitive nightmare, it’s hard to imagine anyone seriously believing that a night of delusional Disney Adult cringe, too childish to call a fraud, Musk’s increasingly-degenerate gambling run is slouching toward one last big coinflip"



Facts sprinkled with personal interpretation, a normal, albeit not an extraordinary, blog post?

I admire some of the things Elon Musk has made happen, but the guy has obvious ego issues and acts often like a villain from a child superhero movie. If a blog post is "biased, one sided, bullshit" for calling this behavior and all the accompanying unkept promises, what they are, together with some creative words and interpretation, why do we have blog posts in the first place?


Yeah well-written unironically
