He said he often experiences very high highs and lows due to extreme stress from his work. When asked if he was bipolar, he basically said maybe, but "not medically." He was not saying he was a diagnosed bipolar. He was just saying his high stress work has given him high highs and low lows. He emphasized it was the stress of his job. He never actually literally said he was a bipolar peraon, though I see where some miscontrue that due to his statement.
Agree, there is no official diagnosis. But casually, he fits many indicators, and he admits to that. Then again, the field of psychology is not set in stone. Diagnosis is still very primitive. Often it's all a matter of opinion. I firmly believe people like Kanye and Elon have mental issues that points that direction. What people want to call it, bipolar or manic or whatever, is up to them.
Yep. UBI would be disastrous. Instead of actually getting back to free markets, getting rid of corporatism and government sponsored monopolies, Musk and others think we should give government more control, state sponsored guaranteed income and more inflation by printing? Or more taxes on job creators to pay for it? Yeah, that's a swell idea, back to 20th century recycle Keynesian economics. What a surprise.
Such a inspirational man, one day I only hope to be as Chad as he, one day.
Didn't he get married to and divorced from -- TWICE -- the same Hollyweird actress?
Seems like he would've learned the first time, before he had to give away half of his business empire a second time.
Maybe you haven't heard of prenuptial agreements.
WRONG. His main interest is defending his empire. Never depend on a bipolar as an ally. Let him do whatever he wants, like Kanye.
Nah. The guy is on the spectrum. Kind of like 4-chan.
true.
Does that make him a hacker?
He's a high functioning autist, not bipolar.
I believe Elon himself has admitted that he is bipolar on Twitter. From the horse's mouth.

So when can we expect him to show up on TD? lol
Seriously, though. That first zinger.
we should do an ama
I prefer the Vince McMahon version myself.
Please don't cherry-pick, and also include the tweet where he says he wants UBI, which is not based.

I thought the rose was a socialist signal. He seems more purple pilled but that’s better than blue pilled.
