Musk dismisses TikTok acquisition rumors, says he prefers to build companies from scratch

In fact, most of his wealth comes from heavily handed government contracts and funding. Without the US government, his two biggest companies wouldnt be where they are.
I'm not sure why you changed the topic. Let's stick to what we were discussing, which is whether Elon Musk has built any companies. The only counter point I've seen you make is that you don't think he's done any work. Well I've established the track record, you just disagree about whether he's done any work all this time. That's a weird take considering he has a job title at each company. At the minimum, he's done basically all the advertising and PR for Tesla. Furthermore, people who've worked with him before disagree with you:
He destroyed twitter, its barely profitable according to musk and advertises abandoned.
You say he destroyed Twitter, but Twitter is just a different company under his leadership now and it's doing fine. It was losing money before, so by that metric alone it is doing better.
Paypal forced him out, they hated working with him and called him incompetant which resonates with many folks experiences with him.
Once again, this has nothing to do with whether he bought or built companies. He built the company before his departure, and many other companies after.

I didnt change topics. I apologized for being wrong and thank'd you for correcting me. Feel free to beat a dead horse.

The conversation progressed beyond that as I admitted the mistake.

And a cherry picked Joe Rogan source isnt a source. Anectdotal evidence doesnt suggest I am wrong. Its well documented and we can sit here and go tit for tat on it all day long. One guy saying it isnt true doesnt make it not true. But folks saying it is true, does make it true. Thats how this works.

If you want to be taken serious, dont use Joe Rogan as a source, I thought we were having a real conversation and not a fantasy land with made up bullshit.

He isnt contributing outside of a bank roll. He isnt some genius or developing anything. Folks actually hate working with him. That being said, I am sure you can find someone who does like working for him, that isnt the point.

Its not hard to read up why paypal forced him out or other instances of him being absolutely horrible to his employees.

The person I'm citing isn't Joe Rogan but an actual employee of Elon's. Anecdotal evidence by people who have worked for Elon has a basis in reality for it, unlike a random comment by someone on the Internet. But another source for you that cites more employees showing he does real work lol: https://www.wsj.com/video/series/in...-stories/1888C1B7-0519-4322-A488-747560ECC810

You have cited no source for claiming that Elon only bankrolls his companies. To put it in your own words, you are living in a fantasy land with made up bullshit. I'm going to stop responding to you now because it's becoming painful to read all of your typos.

See you swung and missed again.

That is a Joe Rogan link to the Joe Rogan experience. Thats Joe Rogan as a source. I wont listen to someone who makes things up to create drama. Come up with a better source. Joe Rogan isnt a source. Rogan is brain rot and lies constantly, thinking anything from that show is legit is ridiculous. I have higher standards for the dribble I believe.

Two people saying Elon is good to work for doesnt mean he isnt a bad person to work for.

The folks stating he is and who refuse to put up with his man baby antics have stated as such. So of course you are going to find folks who can say he is fine, its the ones who say he ISNT that you need to look at.

Such as the paypal firing him over being impossible to work with. Musk is not credited for founding paypal, his contribution was actually very small.

Tesla was selling cars before Elon purchased it. You said you wanted to know, now you know.

Sure I am a random guy on the internet but you do yourself a giant disservice by not just researching 20 seconds what folks think of Musk that doesnt fit your confirmation bias.

Have you never heard of how he treats factory workers? X employees, others? You cant be a billionaire without taking advantage of folks.

Its like you are trying to argue that Trump doesnt lie and its an insane take to try and defend.

LOL, these comments...
Amazing how Musk was a "darling" of the environmentalist/democrats etc, UNTIL he bought Twitter
then hooked up with bad orange man.

many folks can look at him, his actions and what he says and objectively come to the conclusion he isnt a great person or someone they want to hold in high esteem.

Whats even better is the folks who think just because he is a billionaire he is incredible and can do no wrong. There is proof in this thread, blind boot licking. They cant possibly admit that the billionaire did anything wrong in his rise to incredible wealth.

They are NOT looking out for you. They certainly dont need your defense. How much is he paying you?

Done any nazi salutes in public today and seen the reaction? Do it and see if you can talk yourself out of it or laugh it off. Let us know how it goes.
