Billionaires are not billionaires because they're smart. They are rich because they are broken in a way that allows them to completely ignore morality in order to gather more wealth in a doomed attempt to fill the unfillable hole inside them. (David Stack)

Is that what Elon Musk did?

Under him Tesla built an electric car that didn't look like a soapbox on wheels. 10 years ago same people who hate him now, praised him like a deity for that. Under him starlink was built and works world wide.

Musk is the biggest case of falling out of grace after getting into politics

    Look, you can't even say he created Tesla. The man has never created anything worthwhile in his miserable life.

    Nuance is foreign concept for this one. Building a car isn't a one person endeavor

    No, I mean he literally had nothing to do with the creation of the company

    Creation of company has nothing to do with building a good product. Before Musk they made Tesla Roadster - which was a commercial failure.
