    He did help push it forward in a couple ways that I don’t think others would have.

    One is that he just didn’t give a fuck about regulation or established procedures. Two is that he did have a focus on affordability. Three is that he demanded a lot out of his employees largely driven (for them) by being for the greater good.

    A lot of his success has come from employees who were dedicated to the cause. It’s why both Tesla and SpaceX had done so well, while Twitter and Tesla robots will flounder

      Some of that likely came out of him being a shitbag in various ways where he lucked into the right circumstances for that attitude.

      The world isn’t black and white. He should get some credit for Tesla. And he should get credit for the current ways he’s dismantling Tesla and the US.
