Oh bollocks. Look at his twitter account, it's EXACTLY how he operates. He's a thin skinned narcissist, not dissimilar to Trump or Jordan Peterson. You'd think at his level of success he'd be above replying to everything bad written about him, but he's so fucking sensitive that he just jumps in there like a child.
I used to be a huge fan - this IS the Tesla and SpaceX guy, but man, follow him on Twitter long enough and you just want him to fuck off.
His skin seems thicker than yours at least, so I'm not sure you should be the one to judge...
Elon Musk has public events that demonstrate his thin-skin (unlike the poster you refer to). Like when he wrote journalists angrily because they didn't mention him as a co-founder of Tesla, even though, you know, he didn't co-found it?
I see a lot of hate on Jordan Peterson. I'm not an unwavering fan, but I don't see what is so offensive about him. I also don't see him as a thin-skinned narcissist.
Again, look at the twitter account. These powerful, influential men are apparently so insecure that every piece of criticism warrants a personal response.
I don't ever get on twitter so maybe I don't have the same perspective. Could be the piece I am missing. I am not very interested in the social media aspect of these figures though.
EDIT:
I will further add that I really don't think you can just take the bad without looking at the good. It is factual to say that he has helped many people learn to take personal responsibility and improve their lives. I don't think you can take that for granted. I don't necessarily trust everything he says but I'm not sure where the Trump comparison comes from. Whether you are a Trump fan or not, I don't think they are really comparable...
