My favorite musician may be a jerk too, and ended their career with coke and heroin...but that ought not take away from their accomplishments.
For musk, that includes paypal, jump starting electric cars, falcon 9, reusable rockets, openai, solar city, musk foundation and other charities...i'm sure i'm missing others.
All true, but when does encouragement toward the destruction of our democracy start to outweigh the good? He definitely accelerated a lot of industries, but we'd have gotten their sooner or later.
Harvey Weinstein made some great movies.
You forgot Starlink...which is providing Ukrainian internet and freaking out the Chinese all at once.

His ego wrote a check (in having to buy twitter against his own will) that he can't recover. Sure, he can technically afford it, but he had to dispose of a lot of Tesla stock (and pay taxes) in the process, knowing it was throwing money away. He's angry, and unlike his technical endeavors, the intelligence required to fix the problems is emotional... a currency of which he is dirt poor.
he also strikes me as someone who is losing their grip on reality.. being rich is not the only metric of success I guess.
I'm not sure, but he's trying hard to demonstrate that he's the biggest asshole with a billion(well, many) dollars. It's a crowded field, so he's also working on dumbest (although many will defend him as a genius).

Just another narcissistic asshole with a billion dollars.

Is ghosting an employee considered termination, legally? It seems me he could have just waited and sued for unpaid wages.
Or get publicly released from your NDA, then get set up for a couple of lawsuits for defamation and disclosure of private health information. I knew a little about this guy previously, but hadn't read the full backstory. He basically took wages in lieu of a cash payout for his company to *maximize* his tax burden. He did this because it was an efficient way for him to get money back into Iceland's public welfare system that had supported him for years. He also had the title of something like acquired founder which basically meant he had no responsibilities and couldn't be fired for 'doing no work', although most reports paint him as a productive innovator and leader in his organization.
Now that he's fired Twitter is on the hook for the balance of his payout, which could be near 100 million. That's before the public disclosure, defamation and wrongful termination suits. It must be huge, because the lawyers (or some remaining adult) at twitter actually got him to issue an apology pretty quick.
When bleary-eyed engineers began to log on to their laptops, the nature of the emergency became clear: Elon Muskâs tweet about the Super Bowl got less engagement than President Joe Bidenâs.
In the wake of those losses â the Eagles to the Kansas City Chiefs, and Musk to the president of the United States â Twitterâs CEO flew his private jet back to the Bay Area on Sunday night to demand answers from his team.
