Honestly it's hilarious to see the Elon worshippers turn against him. Paul Graham and Ryan Jones - check. Tim Urban, Andrej Karpathy, Sam Altman - no comment so far, but I suspect they're not on Elon team anymore. Lex Fridman - no chance, that guy would gladly follow him to grave.


David Sacks would follow also. Seeing him constantly defend Musk on that All In podcast is painful. "he will never do that" one week turns into "ok he did that but...". It's like a weekly no true scotsman act watching him try and reinvent an argument that fits the very short lived situation into some grand humanity saving strategy. And you have to seriously question his motivation.


he also started a poll asking if people are in favor or against „realtime doxxing of a person“ which soberly isn‘t what the ElonJet incident was about. I don‘t even know what my opinion is. I just think it‘s really lame, like a parent that executes on a principle they don‘t wanna back off from.


David Sacks is in the inner circle of the Twitter executive team. He has financially benefited from being a "Yes man".

One need only refer to the texts released in the Discovery phase


Lex is a strange human. Seemingly smart, but also supportive of a lot of weird shit. Also he says he's neutral - but don't criticize Joe Rogan!! lol


Lex really likes self driving cars, chip brain implants, mars colonization - he has no other way to go here


Only seemingly.


Not surprising at all. This happened consistently with Trump and all the moderate republicans who supported his rise but eventually realized that his extremism wasn't an act and he was never on their side, just his own.
