He used to have a PR team to help him with this shit.
But then at one point he fired them (probably because they'd told him one too many times that he shouldn't do Nazi salutes) and started making his own shitposts on Twitter (it was still Twitter back then), and that's when the world began to see the real Elon.
I wonder if it's because all this happened because he really couldn't contain himself anymore. Like really letting his freak-flag fly?
He's an addict. If it's not ketamine, it's money or power, the same mechanisms work in all addictions, it takes a good deal of self delusion to go as far down the paths addicts go to excuse their behaviour. The more it feeds the delusion, the harder it is to crawl out of the hole it digs you
So there's no cure for this Behavioral Health?
