He’s been toxic for a long time though, a long long time. I do remember the first kink in his public armour was when those people were stuck in a cave and he called one of the rescuers a pedophile for not taking his advice
To be fair, Tesla began production of their first cars in 2008. The pedo cave thing was 2018.
Retrospectively, there were many signs but in 2015, I don’t think the general public had their attention directed to Elon’s bs.
I understand that Tesla feels like a young company and that everything that Elon did happened super recently. But it has been 17 years. E.g. Elon has talked about self-driving cars in 2015, promising them for 2018. Elon has failed to keep his promise of self-driving for 7 years now.
I am not arguing that Elon wasn’t a weird fascist with a toddler RP kink in 2008. Or that we couldn’t have known what kind of man he is. But rather that I don’t think the general public knew and understood in the early years of Tesla.
That being said, this seems to be a model 3 which got released in 2017… So I think that person was probably aware of the pedo cave thing at least.

You are correct, but the average person is not paying attention to that kind of stuff.

Now that you mention it…
