I did not see this published outside of India. But not sure why. It’s all based on Xitter.

    He definitely used to be better at acting normal, or at least was smart enough to stay out of the spotlight.

      From the moment I’ve heard his name for the first time, I could clearly see he’s a nascicistic scam artist. Nothing good can come from someone like that. He didn’t hide anything, people were just too dumb to see. There’s a shit load of red flags every time he speaks or does anything. Don’t say he was better at hiding it, people were just too ignorant to see and now they try to find reasons to hide their own incompetence.

        How often do you watch someone being interviewed or speaking in public? Most businesspeople I have no idea what they sound like, because I read my news rather than watch it.

        I’m sure he came off as a nutter in interviews, but most people simply wouldn’t have known.

          Not just in interviews, but also by his actions. Like building a hyperloop or the boring company, or his false claims about his past which became clear very early. His bold claims to control the stock market, several times. His impossible view of the near future, how he tries to oversell it to get investors before they find out he’s a scam. His words didn’t mean much to me in the beginning, he could just be really bad with PR, but his actions show what kind of person he is. And it happens to be the same as how he is in interviews. A fucking psycho who would do anything to get power, money and fame, no matter the cost or other’s agony, suffering and/or death.
