It's so weird to see an author express such disdain for Elon Musk, and yet still credit him repeatedly with something he hasn't actually done, which is start all of the companies he runs. He bought Tesla, he didn't start it.


Saying, ‘he didnt start Tesla’ as a way to imply it would still be where it is today without him is comical.


It didn’t seem like disdain the way I read it. It was pretty respectful, slightly humorous.


He started SpaceX together with Tom Mueller.
