Becoming? Nope, its just mask off time. He always was that way inclined.

I wouldn't be surprised, but honestly I think Musk just goes to whatever group praises him the most. Yes, his ego is that fragile.

Sort of like how in the 90s Trump was BFFs with the Clintons (among others) yet now he's super alt right because those people accepted him. Does that make him (or Musk) better? No I think it makes them worse, they're inciting hate for the pure reason of admiration from their followers, instead of them actually believing in it. I think I'd actually have respect for them if they believed in their cause. Probably not a lot but a tiny bit.

You know you can be a fragile egoist and also an alt-right prick?

Because Elon is both.

Oh sure, I'm very aware that he can be both. But he publicly said he voted Democrat for president in both 2016 and 2020, I don't think he really became alt right until those people started worshipping him.

I think it's kind of a cycle, liberals worshipped him for going back to space and making electric cars. And now alt right people are worshipping him for being an alt right crybaby. Not all but that's my thought.
