“I do shoot myself in the foot from time to time, but at least you know it is genuine, not from the PR department,” he admitted.
He’s been brainwashed by his fans if he thinks that somehow makes it better.
Like, authenticy is good for good things, but it makes shitty things even shittier. It’s not a value that’s always good in every context. And the worst thing he could be doing is doubling down on his opinions and policy.
If he left the company is the only way this would help, he wouldn’t even be a fall guy because most of this is entirely his fault
Reminds me of the people who say things like “I say it like it is, and most people don’t like it”…not knowing that the reason they don’t have many friends is because they don’t have a filter and don’t think they need one, lol
But this looks like Elon Musk admitting that he’s genuinely an idiot, lol
Idk, I’d prefer if CEOs were more transparent and why mistakes happened instead of the generic PR nonsense of: “We messed up, and we’re sorry. We’re taking time to review what happened to make sure it never happens again.” That kind of statement only matters if there’s some way for the public to know what happened and verify that it actually won’t happen again.
That’s not what we’re getting from Elon, so screw him, but I just figured I’d point out that this particular broken clock could say something close to what we probably all want.

Yeah I robbed that gas station but at least some crime boss didn’t make me do it. It was genuine so you should forgive me

“Shoot oneself in the foot” is a really charitable description of “inviting all the worst Nazis back on to social media and removing fact checking.”
Authenticity only works when you don’t jump ships and stay on point. Not for billionaires, tho.
