Thanks for the summaries! I always rely on reading these Signpost articles to find out what's going on. Ganesha811 (talk) 18:10, 30 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I like money but how come Elon has links to really important businesses and, not just tweet but believe in garbage like that? -Gouleg🛋️ (Talk • Contribs) 20:48, 31 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Just a guess here - he really doesn't believe in half the stuff he tweets. Rather it may be, to get into his position you have to be very confident in what you are doing, what you think - and sometimes that extends into contempt of others' views or actions. So he might be making fun of others, i.e. trolling. If anybody thinks this guess is against wp:BLP, please remove it. But please also remember - it's just a guess. If it doesn't apply to Musk (and maybe only he knows why he tweets this stuff), it might very well apply to John Rockefeller, Henry Ford, Jobs, and a lot of other very successful DLPs, who if their biographers are to be believed had some very strange habits.

Also a guess.. it used to be having a Wikipedia article was prestigious. Now less so being so prolific. So the way to gain prestige on Wikipedia is with manufactured controversy. I think he is joking but there is some truth to it. -- GreenC 03:54, 4 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
