Musk's is like Jobs, he can't really code or engineer but he knows how to manage the people who can and plans ahead with his vision, and he created a coherent product strategy leveraging shit people already made before but never truly had the will or insight to actually put it all together and sell it.
PayPal, SpaceX, Tesla, none of them are really groundbreaking shit, they all took existing tech or concepts but either finally made something that worked or finally took the risk that the lethargic boomers at banks or Detroit or Boeing never really wanted to take.
Same shit with Apple, same Jobs cult, same inane, obnoxious, boring crazy haters.
I'd imagine if Jobs survived cancer and the Overton window pushed his left leaning views into the center right like what happened to Musk, you'd see the same retard rage against him and his company.
