He can’t have coined it. It’s been floating around xitter and right wing forums a lot longer and musk has never had an original thought. It’s all 8chan (9gag) humor and retweets.
He’s such a pathetic asshole. For all of his money, fame, and power, he’s still sad and pathetic. Can you imagine having unlimited resources, with the entire world at your fingertips, and still deciding to spend half of every day arguing with incels online? What a loser!
That’s not what we call meltdowns, but yes, autistic people should not be in positions of power and fame for their own good. There are speculations that Marcus Aurelius was one, but his notes start with a long list of people who have taught him how to avoid bad things, and despite that list we know that he’s done some unhinged shit before becoming the emperor we know from those notes. My dumb, dumb dad also caught his chance to prove he shouldn’t have anything resembling power over others.
In 2017 when I got my dev job, one of the interview questions were about who’s your idol. One of the most approved answers was “Elon Musk”. It’s actually kind of amazing to see how hard his popularity fell since then.
In Russia they would say “how do you like that, Elon Musk?” as a mockery of something technical made in a really clumsy way. Without the mocking intonation it would mean that the thing should impress Elon Musk. Meaning Elon Musk had something resembling a cult of personality, a bit like Steve Jobs (interesting how these cults never form around people really comparable to bloody Columbus, say, Unix fathers, Bill Joy, Fabrice Bellard).
By 2019 he had already tried to convince everyone that that cave rescue diver was a paedophile for thinking the submarine was a stupid idea
That was the catalyst. He had a full mental meltdown after that and has been burning ever since.
His daughter coming out and him calling it the “woke-mind virus” was peak meltdown for me.
Really shows how much control he wants.
He’s the one who coined that phrase? I thought it was the big brain guys at Faux News.

Must have sucked to be his first wife, who wrote an article about how bad Musk was all the way back in 2010.
It’s pretty normal for women to call out troublesome behavior from horrible people only for it to take a decade or two before anybody listens.
Epstein.
Harvey Weinstein.
Bill Cosby. (Granted Hannibal Buress made it soar)

Seeing him mentioned in 2010-2020 media as an enlightened soul who will bring Humanity to Space is so cringe now.
He’s in an episode of Rick and Morty. Granted, Rick makes jabs at Elon so it ages a bit better than most others.

Apparently the car headbutting thing happened in 2018 too: https://www.businessinsider.nl/elon-musk-reportedly-head-butted-car-at-teslas-factory-2018-8?international=true&r=US
