Nothing in that headline is exaggerated or sensationalized. It’s 100% factual.
For a supposed genius, I do get the impression this oligarch keeps taking many corrective measures for his own actions.
To be fair, very smart people can say very dumb things outside their areas of expertise.
Also to be fair, Musk isn’t one of those people.
What area of expertise does he have?
Tweeting, “hmm interesting,” about Nazis’ thoughts.
Deadnaming
divorce
Being born in wealth
Believing that someone like Elon Musk, that is probably counseled by some of the best minds of the Earth (even if they’re turned the wrong direction), is doing this out of stupidity isn’t good. This is politically and economically fueled.
The problem is that “someone like Elon Musk” is a billionaire insulated from virtually every bad decision he could ever make, therefore he doesn’t need any counsel other than “this lawsuit could cost you money if you do (thing).
He’s almost worth $200Bn, and even is someone sued and won for half his entire worth, he’d still have more money and power than 99.999% of the rest of the entire planet.
He is exactly the someone he wants to be, he can be as stupid as he wants as long as he doesn’t think his actual worth or power is truly threatened.
It’s unknown why exactly Musk chose to delete the tweet but it may have had something to do with the discovery that Cooper has a habit of siding with Adolf Hitler on a number of issues.
That doesn’t sound plausible, Musk frequently sides with Hitler too, so why should that be a problem?
So when I see this headline I thought:
“Does this mean there is a line for him that he wouldn’t cross or was this done to avoid bad optics”
Given the backlash we are seeing for the Tucker Carlson thing, it’s probably the ladder.
Musk also sides with Russia and money.

Is Elon playing some clever 5D chess that I don’t understand? Why is he doing things like this, how is it benefiting him? Has he lost his fucking mind?
He really went off the deep end when Grimes dumped him. I’m not saying he didn’t have issues before, but his compete public persona changed when their relationship ended. When his relationship with Amber Herd ended her did an interview with Rolling Stone where he was crying and talking about how life just isn’t worth doing anything of you aren’t in love. I think he really thought that with Grimes he found his true soulmate. My guess is that once she became a mother she realized that he isn’t someone she wants raising her children and she broke his heart and he’s gone full incel now.
One day she will be free of him and she’s going to tell her story. I can’t wait to hear it.
I don’t know if it coincides with grimes, but his daughter disowning him and him blaming the woke school system for turning her against him is also where the anti work crusade started, which don’t ya know, brings you down the far right rabbit hole into psycho land.
Edit: whatever his views were before this event, that was a defining moment where he had to make a real choice, and he made the wrong one.
He faced a lot of abandonment in a short time period and instead of self reflecting lashed out. And when an angry white man lashes out against other people for self preserving, there’s a chunk of the internet there to help guide him away from ever getting better
Remember those creepy, desperate Tweets from Grimes to Musk about seeing the kids or whatever? God. Imagine literally the richest person in the world is also your incel ex.
