> I blame the Left for being completely intolerant of anyone and any company that doesn't strictly adhere to their ideology.

This is deeply, deeply silly to assert in 2025 as the right attempts to shut hobble the Ivy League, the NIH, prominent public policy law firms, green card holders writing op-eds, etc.

This isn't about ideology. It's about Musk behaving like a toddler. No way I'd make such a significant purchase from a company led by someone that volatile.

> Shame it all got so political.

“The Left” bears sole responsibility for this? I don’t think so. If some of us find this man some kind of a Nazi and genuinely creepy, we have a named syndrome now?

Musk chose to visibly support causes I personally find repugnant. I’m not intolerant; he can do what he wants within the confines of the law. And surely given his much-vaunted genius, he must realize that symbols are important to people whether the actions they take on account of them are rational from a purely economic point of view.

The progress he made on electric vehicles is laudable. The real shame here is his lack of self-control to focus on his business.

> Shame it all got so political. I don't blame Musk for that - he is just a CEO who is open about his politics. I blame the Left for being completely intolerant of anyone and any company that doesn't strictly adhere to their ideology.

You don't blame the man who did a Nazi salute on stage at a political rally?

Your theory is just not correct, particularly given that Biden and Harris are right-wing politicians.
