He's certainly a real success story, no doubting that. He is a fucking odd ball though, I don't think there is too much doubt about that either.

He, to me, has the look and demeanor of a Bond villain

And fashion sense.

I think he knew that as that's what Bolty was referring to, but these people with time on their hands certainly like to pick at threads.

Let’s have a look at the facts here:

It’s in colour

You think it’s fake

Your brother thinks it’s real.

What more proof can there be for it being a genuine photo?

What he has achieved at SpaceX is incredible and rightly applauded.

It's his personality that is suspect and he has very suspect views on Russia/Putin, various conspiracy theories and his support of Trump is purely for financial reasons.

Just being silly now. With that bit for a start. I haven't even learned how to correctly pronounce 'strewth' you flamin' larrikin galah.

I am regularly amused by you media gullible types. 'Suspect views'? Aye, based on your blind acceptance of the force feed you get from untrustworthy sources like BBC News.

Unnecessary. Still, I am sure he won't give a fuck what you think. Or what I think for that matter.

If some hideous skeleton is unearthed at some point about him I would not be in the least bit surprised.

 

Having watched documentaries on him I am convinced he is still breast fed by his mum

Space X apparently have an Elon Wrangler employed to keep him out of the way. Show him the shiny things and away from the important stuff.

He's invested his dad's money quite well making a decent packet selling his PayPal stake. 

His public persona is becoming damaging to his brands though.

Doesn't surprise me but he set it up and his engineers have performed miracles.

Starlink is also a good venture that he has managed to damage with Russia using it now.

The work they do at Space X is brilliant he is turning into a contemporary Howard Hughes

I did say apparently and ive read similar stories from other tesla/spacex/twitter employees.

The consensus amongst scientists is that the money he invests in the science and engineering field is massively beneficial he himself is a massive prick but he's a 'net positive' in the advancement of technology

I do sometimes wish your sort would lambast Eric from Breightmet and has been a dole dosser for 40 years rather than criticising achievers.

Would toe the party line that though would it?
