I think the real problem with Elon is that he lacks class. He is tacky. He got a lot of money but doesn't know how to behave. People can break up quietly, they can be enemies without making a public spectacle. People used to know this. Some old world values are just lost on the nouveau riche.

The claim is that’s his Asperger. People say the meanest shit in that red zone. It was a lovers quarrel.

Theory: Him and Trump aren't that stupid and were advised to make this a public spectacle. The issue with people is they have Gell-Mann amnesia and forget political people lie all the time especially when it comes to goals. We just had 20 years of this with the war in Iraq and Afghanistan. My thought is with Tesla sales dropping in the EU, they needed a public breakup so Musk could gain trust back in that market. Also it seems likely a backdoor deal with China is being worked out, and I imagine a component where some amount of EVs will be open to US markets, dropping Tesla's market share. They really need to boost sales in Europe and this seems like a viable strategy. These guys have economic advisors on payroll so if even I could come up with "pretend you guys fight and make more money later on" I'm sure they did.

The real problem is that he believes class is based on comparative affluence. He respects you if he can't buy you
