    Anecdotally, the few folks I know at these companies all think Elon Musk is a clown and do everything they can to keep their projects away from him.

          Pretty sure his inspiration was from the cars in Total Recall. You know the weird flick where Arnie goes to mars and gets his brain scrambled and re-scrambled?

          Also note he’s in on Neuralink.

    While I know we all love dunking on the dipshit Musk… the data from Open Secrets isn’t exactly compelling that these people deeply materially support Harris over Trump. So they’ve spent a bit more donating to Harris… the amounts are honestly a drop in the bucket compared to the full budgets of these campaigns and I’m like 90% sure that a number of them are donating to SuperPACs instead so they can donate beyond their max individual contribution. So, personal opinion, misleading and not necessarily indicative of anything at all, as much as I would love to guffaw and point to it as more evidence that Musk is out of touch with even his own workforce.
