Nobody else but a libertarian boy's club member would get such deference for such a management disaster. Lost 40% of revenue in weeks. Lost $200 billion in personal wealth. Destroyed the Twitter and Tesla brand image. Dissipated a Jobs-like reality distortion field resulting in FSD looking like The Emperor's New Chauffeur.

It puts the ability of firms like A16z to invest in people like Adam Neumann in perspective.
