I think he was using some sort of "appeal to authority" to win the argument, and was countered by an actual scientist. I could be wrong, and would have to go to the original (which he could have changed anyway).
Is Elon Musk a fraud?

Feels like that's what you're doing to other posters instead of providing qualitative information or reading of your own.

Asking for evidence for claims others have made means I am making conclusions without evidence? That really is not logical. Are you sure that is the argument you want to use?
Making the claim that others are projecting is separate to asking for evidence. Are you sure you're not conflating two separate points?

Fair enough. Those are two separate issues.

It's essentially a threat of rape
Or child trafficking! Don't you love freedom of trade?

People treat this guy like a genius but he's an out of touch bigot that genuinely comes across as a freak

Dude has been done multiple times for sexual harassment, he's eventually going to attack a woman if he hasn't done it already
The guy has straight up said he has Aspergers. He is really good with numbers and technology and really bad with people and social cues. I think that explains like 99% of his behavior. At least he has been able to use his strengths productively.
Even if true, no, it doesn't.

So what? He's a beast
It really, really doesn't. Having autism is a disability, sure, but being a raging arsehole is all on him.
I would suggest that all of these are consistent with my thesis. He is really good at interacting with engineering problems and really bad at interacting with people and social problems. That’s a big part of why Tesla and SpaceX are so successful and Twitter is not.

What the christ are you talking about? He threatened to effectively rape someone, autism or not, that's low, what if it was your daughter or sister? Dude's been accused off and settled multiple sexual harassment cases
His sin is saying out loud thoughts that are better kept in his head. Which fundamentally is a lack of filter.
He has teams in the first two companies dedicated to keeping him away from engineering. Not a social problem. It's the other people doing the (good) engineering.

Are you for real? His sin is that he can't be left in the same room as a woman or girl
