Right on the money. Looks like Elon is the one taking it a bit too seriously. His behavior is erratic, flying too close to the Sun


> His behavior is erratic, flying too close to the Sun

If anything I'd say he's working too much. His behaviour has always seems to have been outgoing but now it's downright hostile.

He needs to take a few weeks off surely someone in his companies can run them without being micromanaged every minute of every day by Musk?


Exactly what I meant, my words should have been less poetic perhaps. He's putting so much pressure on himself and his companies (a lot of the time self imposed), and the media treats him unfairly a lot of the time. What I'm seeing is nothing but signs of burnout indeed, nothing personality related


> (...) and the media treats him unfairly a lot of the time

I find the idea that the media treats Elon Musk unfairly laughable. He is consitently portrayed either as a genius that can make anything happen or as a lunatic that can make anything happen. He couldn't have more favorable media coverage if he was writing the headlines himself.


That's exactly what unfair means: he's not a genius nor a lunatic. Favorable (never used that term) ≠ Fair


Has he lost it, is it a joke or does he suffer from severe ADHD?


Thanks I didn't know. I'll include the date on the title to avoid confusion.
