That's a good point.

I was thinking about Elon in comparison with Mark Zuckerberg.

And sure, there's some people that don't like Mark.

People of Kauai aren't massive fans of him buying up a ton of land and there's other bits and pieces.

but i don't think people have like insane fervor against him or insane fervor for him yeah uh but elon seems to be much more barbelly right if you were to draw a graph it's just a pair of boobs uh whereas you know most most people are kind of a bell curve whereas elon's managed to completely clear the middle yeah i don't think that used to be true like is that is that do you think there's a byproduct of him having a political chapter

Uh, yeah, I guess so.

Yeah.

If he's so concerned about the bias to action, working on the biggest problem, the bottlenecks, et cetera, why have such a public presence?

Why tweet a lot?
