Musk has consistently proven himself to be a driving force behind the sustained success of every company under his leadership. Disparaging attitudes towards Elon seem to follow popular opinion rather than fact. While there’s plenty of justifiable criticism, the points frequently echoed here don’t contribute meaningfully to constructive discourse.
Edit: The prevalence of downvotes simply underscores my argument. How does this platform distinguish itself from Reddit, when it harbors a similar degree of negativity and concerted downvoting targeted at individuals participating in earnest conversation?
Honestly though who gives a shit about Musk though? Do you personally admire him? He’s a rich guy that is good at managing, if that’s something to admire then I understand your comment, otherwise it’s just ball riding
good at managing
About that, have you seen twitter lately?
It seems like his best management decisions have been to not touch anything.
Lol it is pretty funny, Twitter is a garbage can anyway so it’s got the right guy at the helm
But the person I replied to does have a point he has been good at what he’s got involved with minus twitter I’m just curious if that makes him admirable to that person
If you’ve followed Musk for some time you’d know there is a lot of noise around whatever he does. The Twitter saga is far from over and we don’t really know what the outcome will be for quite some time. It took Tesla 10 years to prove people wrong. Is Elon a saint? No. But he is good at letting the right people work toward a vision of the future that he sees possible.
Okay that’s fair enough, do you actually admire him? That’s what I’m curious about
Yeah, the reddit hate train is here. Choo Choo! We can’t hang people anymore because that’s not PC, but we sure as hell still have the hate for it! Let’s worship people one day and then burn them the next, blaming our disillusionment on someone else rather than on our own illusions!
Salty Elon anti-simps are everywhere and will always downvote things. That isn’t really this platform’s fault.
Big differences between reddit and here are:
- The points don’t matter (and the rules are made up)
- You don’t get banned from communities for wrongthink
- Fuck u/spez
Those are all great reasons for using Lemmy instead. Oh, plus the relative privacy.
