Elon Musk’s Texts Shatter the Myth of the Tech Genius

I mean, very little is actually quoted it’s just mostly “Musk appears to say..” and “In another embarrassing message..”
Am I supposed to just take the reporter at their word? And most of it isn’t even damning beyond “wow, this person is sucking up”.
Ok? I mean, I’d anyone surprised people would suck up to a rich person when they want their help or money?
And I guess, what did people expect? Anyone who has worked with high power/rich people realize “hey, they aren’t all that different from a normal person”.
And on top of that Musk is know for publicly tweeting some bizarre shit. Are we surprised his private messages aren’t some E = mc^2 high-brain-power stuff?
There is plenty to criticise Musk for, but instead they choose to write a hit piece based on the level of intelligence they claim to discern from private SMS.
All text messaging looks dumb, all you need do is check your own phone.
