Can't decide if you're being sarcastic. But for the record, Musk is absolutely not straightforward at all, never has been. He's a troll, a bully, a right-wing nut, and a schemer.

It seems to be a common but fallacious inference nowadays that if you act like a jerk, then you must be telling the truth. "Truth tellers don't hold back" or some such nonsense. Jerkiness becomes proof of truth.
