Elon is not the founder of Tesla. He sued the actual founders to bury that fact.
I don’t think Linus Thorvalds is either very stylish or really an asshole. He might be a bit short fused, but not an asshole.
I think he’s an asshole¹ but he’s not nearly on the same level as Elmo or any other billionaire. Between actually working and contributing, not being as hardcore exploitative capitalist, and not having nearly the same level of hoarded wealth², there’s just far less potential for assholery.
1: Mind, I still value his work, but the way he sometimes treats people reaches into asshole territory for me.
2: A superficial search suggests a net worth of $50 million. In perspective, that’s $0.05 billion, compared to the late Jobs’ $10.8 billion (0.5%) or Musk’s ~$400 billion (0.01%)
Actually, Elmo didn’t found Tesla.
Didn’t he in fact sue the actual founders to be allowed to be called a founder?
I thought he paid extra to be able to tell that lie.
Okay funny, but yeah Tesla on here kinda fucks it up because Elon is not a founder of Tesla, and he’s not visionary unless you count finding new ways to make it worthless. Elon is not visionary in any of his businesses, he just has money and pays people under him to try to make him look good. Emphasis on try
He is an asshole though, I’ll give you that
