Who am I to criticize Elon Musk? My assets don't measure up to his in any shape or form. I could never do what he has done to those who worked at Twitter. I would lose all respect for myself and kill myself if I treated the workers at Twitter the way Elon does. But what I do know is that Elon has made some very serious errors in communicating with the public ( and treating workers at Twitter) and he is going to pay for this because he has gone way over the line of human decency and respect. When I look at all of Elon's actions and statements, I see a man who is about to take a major Fall and I chose to pounce on Elon's self-destruction by shorting his stock big time. Everything I have learned from my philosophical and metaphysical studies tells me that I am 100% right in my assessment. As Descartes and the Rationalists would say, I am absolutely certain of what is coming down the pike for Elon. Sophocles and Euripides and all the great Greek Tragedians would agree with me too. Hubris must get punished to make one realize the errors of judgement. I am not sure if Elon, like Trump, can learn anything anymore. They both seem to have it all figured out and are quite hardened. People use to tell me all the time that philosophy is useless and you cannot do anything with it. But my decision to short TSLA's stock was solely based on philosophical considerations.
