I don't like Elon.
I'm not going to look up the original context of Elon's alleged lies, but from what's written here they just sound like long term project goals rather than formal lies (implying things like malicious intent or fraud).
If anything, maybe the only reason he didn't meet those goals is due to his social media addiction.
You say this as if meanwhile other (presumably non-"social media addicted") company leadership has achieved similar goals.
The reality is that other companies consider SpaceX's goals to be preposterously unattainable, to the point where they don't even try.
I’m still waiting for the concert hall with glass ceiling in starship and the restaurants and zero-g games that serve 100 people, shouldn’t they have landed on mars by now? I think it will be more than 2 years before I start moving goalposts

Do you get equally upset when a concept car isn’t something you can buy at the local dealer the very next year?
Why are you so upset by the aspirations of others?
I’m saying this with confidence because it’s the established history of SpaceX critics. Everything from reusable rockets, space internet, full-flow staged combustion, etc.. has had its naysayers that all shut up and found something new to critique once SpaceX showed it was possible and even profitable.
At this stage you may as well just come out and say “I don’t like Elon”.
