Funny, everyone loved him riiiiiight up until he made it clear a few years ago that he wasn't a super leftie progressive. And since then I've watched a concentrated smear campaign. I see it every day on r/conspiracy. Some of them are so fucking lame, but really well targeted, trying to attach him to bill gates, Epstein, the Rothschilds, ect ect, and most people just suck it right up and never look into it.
I'm not trying to start shit, but I've seen exactly the opposite. I've watched this insane deification and hero worship building across right-leaning forums over the last year. All based on the occasional spicy tweet. I mean like Q-level mesmerization.
Thinking that the richest man in the world is going to save us, or that anyone is going to save us for that matter, is a very strange position to hold. Nobody is going to save us and nobody is going to do the work for us, especially not a billionaire that has been pushing the climate hoax for over a decade, who is pushing implanted human-computer interfaces, who says things like "we will authenticate every human alive" or that "the science is unequivocal on this vaccine", who regularly manipulates investments, etc.
Look, I like Musk too, and root for his apparent conflict with some of the ruling class to be sincere, but I don't buy the hero story and I'm happy to see some critical thinking finally coming back. The hero worship and delusion was getting frothy there for a while.
EDIT: I'm also a bit conflicted on this particular statement in the OP. On one hand, working from home is far more productive than spending all day in meetings on site, and it is petty of him to seem to dismiss this. On the other hand, he is clearly trying to break a spell (the covid spell), and that I think is awesome.
Yeah, he's advanced the state of the art in many areas of tech, and he is incredibly driven. That's why I like him too, but I also don't ignore the tradeoffs and other sides of the stories. My problem is more when already powerful people get deified, the blind following can lead to dangerous places.

In a world of nations, there is hope of liberators. Once everything is global, it's game over: the tyrants will have finally won.
Nations, competition, decentralized power are what give us the degree of freedom and safety we have had, absolutely.
My point, though, is that depending on some lone savior is silly and is just capitulating to the game. If you are completely dependent on a savior then you are that person's slave, so them saving you just means you are changing masters, in essence.
If you're not willing to put in the work to build the systems yourself, and take responsibility for your survival, then you are beholden to the whims of those that provide those for you. And that's fine, at least 80% of people are that way.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has a “super bad feeling” about the economy and needs to cut about 10% of jobs at the electric carmaker, he said in an email to executives seen by Reuters.
The message, sent on Thursday and titled “pause all hiring worldwide”, came two days after the billionaire told staff to return to the workplace or leave, and adds to a growing chorus of warnings from business leaders about the risks of recession.
I was wondering when the stooges behind the rampant Musk propaganda would find their way here. Piss off faggots.

Well, he has made MANY people a lot of money. And the Tesla cars are just the best ever. That is why people love the guy.
