Transit people were really first out of the gate calling out his BS. I remember when he tried to discredit Jarrett Walker (a famous and accomplished transit professional) for calling out why Hyperloop and then Tesla tunnels could never work as promised

We were the first ones to figure this out. In like 2013!

He’s a horrible human being in a list of horrible human beings glorified by stenographers in the news media.

the fremont plant has always been a place of racism, sexism and anti-unionism…none of this is new

I respected him... Until he started saying nonsensical things about transit.

I remember the thai football team stuck in a cave submersible idea and its fallout

Just as a general nerd, I too have never respected Musk

My moment that respect was crossed out was when he called Jarret Walker an idiot for criticizing his cars-in-single-lane-tunnels scheme in 2017. In hindsight, 'twas an omen…

It took a few years for me, but by the time he founded the "boring company" and was doing the neuralink shit i was out. Then i learned about the apartheid emeralds and everything made much more sense in hindsight.

remember when he said that the dirt excavated by the Boring Co would be turned into cheap bricks for affordable housing?

I don't remember exactly when I switched from ambivalence ("annoying former founder type high on their own farts") to open disgust but I recall that it was the reason I didn't consider buying a Model 3 when they were first available.
