I assume they are referring to the text messages of Elon's that came out during the Twitter purchase lawsuit. They are an interesting read, to see how Elon and his hangers-on communicate day to day. I will say that my own impression was less than impressed, to put it very mildly.

Yes. It's very Knives Out : glass onion. Millionaires acting like sycophants to billionaires who are sycophants to multi-multi-billionaires. Massive deals over adoring text messages. Personality cults. All the things that you'd like to think our fearless leaders are above, and then you get a splash of reality that they are emotional boys and girls like the rest of us.

Don't get me wrong - the cocky visionary overconfident charming mega star founder schtick clearly works. I'm not certain it should, but it does.
