Why is Elon Musk so hated?

Question

I can get why someone would hate Zuckerberg but Musk doesn’t seem as bad and worthy of it compared to many others like Bill Gates so much.

He was not hated until he bought Twitter, then everyone on the radical left who call themselves "woke" turned on him. He ended the democrats party's control of Twitter and allowed free speech from both sides. What was even worse, he started releasing all the dirty laundry about what Twitter was doing while it was under Democrat control. Check out "The Twitter Files" and see for yourself. During the presidential election, Twitter actively blocked and censored Republicans, including Trump. In the released internal memos, even Twitter executives were worried about getting away with it. They completely blocked all negative stories about Biden and the Hunter laptop scandal. At the same time, they amplified praise on Biden, even if it was false. The old Twitter actually worked with Facebook, to help Biden win the election. Facebook was, and still is under democrat control and they work to shape the political narrative of the radical left. The democrats control most of the media in the USA. They are following the same plan that the Nazis did when they took power in Germany. They only way they can achieve their plans to tear down the country and rebuild it as a "socialist utiopia" is total domination of the media and the schools. They are almost there with that goal. When Hitler became Chancellor, within 2 years he had replaced all the teachers with loyal Nazis. It had taken the democrats much longer, but now nearly all teachers are woke and their only goal converting the kids. (I know I will get arguments about this so here is my reply now: Show me just ONE school where even 5% of the teachers are not woke leftists. Should be easy, right? You can't do it 😁.) Elon Musk even admitted that he put himself in danger by allowing free speech on Twitter. He is not blocking or censoring liberals. He is allowing every side to say what they want. Imagine a political party that gets enraged over one area of free speech. They are losing their minds over this!

I can't stand the guy. People are saying it's because he bought Twitter and opposed the woke stuff. But he was hated long before that.

He's basically an ambitious salesman who is full of shit. I've worked in several start-up companies which always have people like him. They are highly ambitious people and expect everyone else to be totally driven workoaholics like them. A LOT of people at the top of companies are like that, especially tech companies. Gates, Jobs, Musk - they were all highly driven assholes. They justify it by claiming they are bringing out the best in people. When in reality, they are assholes who push people beyond their limits.

But with Musk, it's more than that. He's just full of shit. He claims credit for a lot of stuff that wasn't his. Out of all "his" companies, not a single one of them were actually his. They were other peoples' companies and ideas that he squeezed into and took credit for it.

He says the stupidest stuff. He gets an idea in his head and throws out all kinds of BS to sell the idea. I started working in engineering when he was a child. I've been around a lot of engineers, including some brilliant ones. There is nothing special about Musk other than being a highly driven salesman. I've been around a lot of people like him and I don't like any of them.

The left hates him because he supports personal freedom and is strongly pro-life.

The right will hate him when his contributions to putting chips into people's heads and attempts to sell immortality to the world's elite become more well-known and potentially realized.

And as usual, simply being one of the richest people in the world always attracts criticism even if for no other reason.

Is he? As far as i see he gets praised and love by the majority.

Maybe because he just buys companies like Tesla and gets praised for inventions he didn't make.

Or because he treats the handfull of Twitter employes who are still willing to work under him like shit.

He's anti-woke and they also can't bare the fact that it was a WHITE South African and not a black one who achieved success, because it looks very bad on the part of black people, especially those pushing the black nationalist narrative. It kind of reinforces the notion that White people are intact superior. For obvious reasons, the woke left isn't too thrilled about that.

Because he says controversial things. Like Ye. I don’t actually hate either, nor like either really. But a responsible CEO is stable because they have the highest affect on the stock market. Look what happened to Apple’s stock because Tim Cook’s offhand remark.

With his energy and successes, he makes others feel jealous and inferior. They judge  themselves . I'm going almost nowhere in life and I admire him. My own fault that I lacked ambition. He didn't. That's the difference.

The left hates him, even though they used to love him. Just like Trump. The problem is, once you start to give the left competition, especially when it comes to messaging, they will turn on you.

Lots of reasons 1. He's rich 2. He's not a born American 3. He's a forward thinker not just a businessman. These types change the world and drag humanity forward. But are seldom popular in thier time
