Yes, hate for Musk seems to dominate. Here and elsewhere. Despite his
obvious skills and MANY successes...
My wife is one of those who refuse to consider a Tesla vehicle based
upon his (miss) behavior...
I think this is an example of the logical fallacies that permeate our
society today. Carl Sagan neatly summarized such fallacies in his book
"The Demon Haunted World"
<https://www.reddit.com/r/atheism/comments/fomps/carl_sagans_list_of_logical_fallacies/>
Basically, it's an "Ad hominem" (to the man) argument (attacking the
man, rather than what he has produced). Musk may be a jerk; but he still
deserves credit for accomplished great things.
If we disregarded the accomplishments of every flawed individual, we'd
have ignored the work of Thomas Jefferson (slave owner), Henry Ford
(anti-semite and Nazi sympathizer), Steve Jobs (arrogant bully), etc.
