You are. I mean the similarities are uncanny. Both are publicity hounds who flip out at any perceived slight. Both are vain, petty, vindictive, and in general, seem to show all the signs of narcissistic personality disorder.

Both have gone through countless wives. Both have a habit of not paying people because they can get away with it - as it’s too expensive to sue them for nonpayment; they can drag it out in court and bankrupt you.

I never got caught up in the Musk hype and the more I learn about him the more wary of him I became. I have seen the amount of damage to society a narcissist can do in the form of the 45th.

Both are also serial liars. The small mercy with Musk vis-a-vis Trump is that his nationality and shifting demographics of the United States (Republican efforts at voter suppression not withstanding) should ensure he doesn't have a shot at becoming president of the United States.

It should worry you if you do business with any Musk-owned company. I'd consider buying a Tesla, for instance, but its resale value could easily drop by five digits based on a single Tweet from Musk.

Not just Gen X, sadly
