You have to admit that Tesla didn't sell a single EV, nor did SpaceX launch a production vehicle or secure high value contracts until Musk took over.

It’s almost like both companies need metric tons of money to do anything remarkable - isn’t that the point of YCombinator as well? That’s just venture capitalism.

He just has the ego of a manchild and bought the title of “founder” as wellz

Musk took over Tesla by firing the founder CEO, and took another 4 years to ship a car to production. The car had already been built when Musk took over. He only needed to build a production pipeline.

Building a production pipeline and scaling it is no small feat in itself though. Hats off to anyone who can do that and make it profitable.

They must all be run by man-children, too, according to the people who have never done it before.

You can put as many words into people's mouth as you wish. This can help to make a non-argument appear to be an argument.
