Is Elon Musk the Nikola Tesla of our time?

I have been watching a lot of interviews with Elon Musk this past year and I must say, everything this guy does will go down in history as some of the biggest shit ever, and he is dating Grimes, holy shit man why is this guy an alien, it makes me feel so inferior, why doesn't he build a space colony and takes only the coolest mexicans out there then nukes the rest of Mexico then Trump would be irrelevant.

Elon musk is more like Henry Ford, than he is tesla, imo. he's not really doing anything new, he's expanding off of others peoples successes.

I don't log in the Internet much anymore, but these are pressing thoughts.

Oh yeah what a catch. Imagine being a billionaire and your goblin looking gf puts you on blast on Twitter because you said pronouns are stupid.

it's insane that Elon Musk could have probably pulled literally any woman on this planet and he settled on ... that

well he did used to look like this.

I have theory that people are very much who they are in their heads, and if they have changes on the outside its hard to reconcile them at first.
kinda like fat girls who get real skinny, they still have the fat girl personality

Elon Musk is probably writing his story when he chose Grimes, he has personality, he is a nerd, he wouldn't have been boring and picked a top model, but then again I know nothing of his psychology, I mean is the opposite sex even on his radar? he probably thinks more about colonizing mars than about the vajay.

It makes sense that he went for an artist type

He wouldn’t have wanted somebody dumb, but he spends enough time around engineers and scientists to not want a brainiac either

An artistic soul is a nice middle ground. They are open to new ideas without being too rigid on the facts

I feel like Elon Musk will not go down in history on the same level as Nikola Tesla.

tesla was an actual inventor, he created new things on his own, and wasn't a particularly good businessman.
Musk is an investor. He made his money from investing in Paypal. He didn't invent paypal or anything else. He just profits off the creativity and hard work of others. Even still, what has he actually made? A shitty electric car that's insanely overpriced, a "cybertruck" whos windows can be broken by an apple, and finally after numerous failures he got a ship into space (something the US has been able to do for 60 years). All of these are things that either don't work or have been done before.
Look at his response to the Thai soccer team cave rescue... he postulated bullshit on twitter, saying "Oh what if we made some kind of submarine to do it??" Meanwhile, who actually ended up saving the kids? That's right, hardworking nameless rescue technicians with a practical skillset. That's Elon Musk in a nutshell, he comes up with some childish idea like "I want to go to space!" and then hands it off to a bunch of technicians and scientists who do all the actual work, then it usually still doesn't work. It's all just celebrity worship, pure and simple. It's obvious if you read twitter posts that he's a simpleton, he likes "Cake is a lie!" jokes and epic bacon and Rick & Morty memes. A closer parallel would be Edison - a man who invented very little but profited massively off the work of others while claiming it as his own. But even Edison possessed a sort of ruthless cut-throat business acumen. Musk is utterly talentless

He did starlink which made everyone think ayyyys were flying around.
I guess making spaceflight successfully private and making nasa look like a bunch of noobs was kinda cool.

I mean, he didn't make NASA look like noobs at all tho... How many privately-owned satellites launched by NASA are flying around over your head right this moment??

You say this like you are better than Musk, but here you are posting on an internet forum all butthurt at his success and he is enjoying his millions.
