I don't think he's a right wing nut job. I think he's a plain old nut job.
He is obviously brilliant and dumb at the same time.
I realize his free speech angle was to build his brand. All businesses and politicians say whatever they need to to make money. So I'm not saying he is the hero of free speech by any means. I think he does believe it to some degree though and I am still happy he implemented it.
I can be happy with a person's decision and support his position even though I don't trust or like him.
Conversely I can really like someone but not be afraid to criticize them, which seems to be hard for most people these days.
Elon is neutral for me.
