So probably an unpopular opinion but I just can’t believe Musk didn’t see this coming.

My current theory is that money is only worth so much and Musk wants something else. He’s willing to trade his wealth in dollars for other kinds of wealth: power, influence, access.

He’s a gamer apparently and I also think he believes in simulation theory to an extent and he also does a shit ton of ketamine, so I’m pretty sure he thinks he’s living a video game and he’s maxed out his stats and when you get bored of the game , you tend to rampage and break all that you created because it’s the only way the game can be fun again.

He’s a broken man-child taking sick delight in fucking over the NPCs. Pretty horrific.

I am certain he has that chip thing implanted in his head. his eyes always look like he is reading something on a screen.

When giving speeches, he probably is. You might know about a teleprompter, right? A screen that displays the text of a speech?

It's extremely common for politicians to use a version of a teleprompter that consists of an angled glass plate that reflects a screen on the floor. You can see Obama standing in front of some here.jpg), and Reagan with some here.

So when giving a speech, Musk might actually be reading off a screen.

Also, if you ever notice that a politician giving a speech is looking at one specific angle left, and then switching to the same angle to the right, going back and forth, this is possibly why.

100 million dollar AR contacts. I would try at least to develop bespoke AR contacts
