Do you mean pre-Twitter buyout or pre-Twitter presence?

If you mean pre-buyout then I have bad news for you: Musk has been baselessly calling people pedophiles since at least 2018.

If you mean pre-presence then I have bad news for you: If you only liked someone before they were really expressing themselves, you probably never actually liked them.

I meant pre-buyout. I guess I hadn't heard much about his personal antics before then; mostly just knew of his achievements with Tesla, SpaceX, and admired him pushing the auto industry towards EVs (kicking and screaming, but they had no choice because Tesla posed an actual threat where no EV company had ever done before).

He should've been banned from Twitter for his own mental health years ago. Dude should've just stuck to building rockets and stopped trying to get into the culture war.

"Never meet your heroes" is from Madame Bovary which was written in 1857. With Twitter we can meet all our heroes.
