[+] KingCapitalist@lemmy.world -53 points 2 years ago (3 children) Are SpaceX, Starlink, Tesla, PayPal, OpenAI... frauds? Do you know well enough to diagnose him a "malignant narcissist" or are you just consuming too much political media that paints him as evil? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] dannoffs@lemmy.sdf.org 28 points 2 years ago A company that only exists on government subsidies and it's spin off, a company he bought and installed himself as "founder" of, a company that his company was acquired by and quickly sunsetted, and a company he's trying to compete with? Yeah, I'd say he's a fraud. permalink fedilink source parent [–] ttmrichter@lemmy.world 26 points 2 years ago (2 children) Are SpaceX, Starlink, Tesla, PayPal, OpenAI… frauds?

I don't think you know what "fraud" means. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] dannoffs@lemmy.sdf.org 9 points 2 years ago (1 child) No dude, you don't know what "fraud" means. Calling someone a fraud does not mean you're literally accusing the person of the crime of fraud, even though he almost certainly has done that. It means you're saying they lied and cheated to get where they are, which every rational person can now tell he did. SpaceX having a successful launch isn't a fraud, Elon taking any credit for it is. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [+] KingCapitalist@lemmy.world -13 points 2 years ago* (1 child) Hmm so the CEO who runs the company, is involved in every hiring decision, who directs his own organization, who's been building SpaceX up from the ground since 2002, who works 12+ hours a day and weekends.... is a fraud.

Yes he is a narcissist and you’re his ‘yes’ man. Observe his behavior. I dare you to defend his lack of empathy. permalink fedilink source parent
