12. So many "inventions" by Musk are completely stupid.

The hyper loop - Let’s take the idea of a subway, but, make it so that only 4 people can ride it at a time. If a car breaks down, it’ll hold all the other cars up until it gets towed to the next point. Anything to not ride the subway, though, because subways are communist and are for minorities and poors. /s

The stupid cave rescue tube he wanted to build, and, was mad that the kids got rescued without him, so, he accused one of the rescuers of being a pedophile.

Space X - “Lets take what NASA does and just do that.” Cool. Except the main purpose is to get people on Mars, because, rich assholes like Musk want a spare planet after they trash this one.

Twitter - Was always bad, but, he somehow made it worse. Impressive. Now full of Nazis and people with internet addictions fighting with each other over the same things every day, 24/7/365.

The Tesla robots and taxis - You too can own what amounts to a slave from a third world country in your home, because, they’re all controlled by humans. It’s “AI!”

Self-driving Teslas - They completely failed and used image recognition instead of better technologies like LIDAR.

Cyber Truck - Looks like a fucking dumpster combined with an N64 Starfox spaceship. Frequently seems to have technical problems, and/or takes the worst elements of sedans and cars trucks and amplifies them.

All my opinion, of course.
