Elon only cares about enriching himself.

I think he mostly cares about getting humanity off this planet, he's been saying that for a long, long time.

Starting a space company to enrich yourself sounds like a very weird thing to do if you only care about money.

He don't want poor people with him, only his rich friends

He only cares about benefiting himself and promoting his image.

He's certainly working towards getting humanity of this planet by making it a worse place to survive. I'm not sure why you would praise him for that.

Also Elon lies all the time. He's even lying about playing games.

He's just trying to get money and power. Maybe he's doing some stuff that interests him on the side but he really doesn't care about you specifically.

Getting off this planet is easy without absurd missions like going to Mars. We could build space habitats or moon bases. Going to live on Mars is not an option for us at this time. We lack the biological resilience to do so. I won't even mention that it must be a planetary effort to even have some chance of success.

Elon is already on it. They will annex Canada first, and then the rest will follow. When that is done, a planetary effort will be established.

If that's true what would be explanation of his gaming/streaming?

I believe his motivations are beyond getting rich. At some point in life money become means to goals, and goals are driven by real motivation.

Do you mean paying others to game for you?

They are now about acquiring power and respect from other people, after he became rich and everyone started making fun of him.

It's a PR stunt. He pays someone to play for him and level up his account. Then, he plays for a bit and it's painfully obvious that he's inexperienced.

He doesn't take criticism very well either. He recently removed a live streamers Twitter verification for pointing out his lack of skill. How's that for a "free speech" platform?

Elon is extremely partisan, insecure, and rich. That's it.

That's not fair. He also cares what twitter randos think of him (e.g. to the point of paying to boost his diablo account or whatever).
