There's just something fucking hilarious about laying off employees, mocking them, and being sued for improperly firing them -- and then whining that your competitor hired them and that they have access to Twitter information still.

I believe this fits well under the "fuck around and find out" doctrine.

But isn't it debatable which impact Elon had on his companies? Elon is someone who is reaching for the stars (literally) and that's the one thing he is good at. Believing he can achieve things so incredible unrealistic no one else would try to achieve them. And yes someone with a vision is important but Musk didn't invent any of the tech his companies are producing. His employees do the heavy lifting and he doesn't treat them exactly great for it.

But the thing is all the things I just mentioned don't even really matter because It's completely irrelevant wether a person does good things while being an asshole to everyone around him. If someone is an asshole I will call him an asshole. But I admit that some parts of my comment were hyperbolic
