I think that he should have avoided the interaction with musk, if he planned to convince Musk of something.
If he planned to educate the general public, his approach is totally fine, though.
He did it for a two-fer. He educated the general public ...and handed eloin his ass.
Meh, association taints.
Imo it just makes things worse, esp. considering the platform is twitter. Interacting with musk won't look good, given how manupulative musk is.
Are those two things not the same?
I'm not sure what you mean. The act is the same but the intention of it differs imo. Do you want to elaborate on the topic?
Glad you asked. To be clear: I agree with your original comment.
I had this great, long, message drafted in my mind while in sauna, but I discarded (forgot) that one when I got back to the computer.
Let me elaborate my first reply. We have in the OP image the following actors: Musk and the challenger.
I like to think I managed to represent the Musk-like interaction in my previous reply; responding to your well built message with a snarky comment. Although, I think, I went too far with the dual interpretations.
E: Why is your reply being down-voted? My previous should be the more down-voted one. I also made a little correction to this message.
Thank you for the clarification. These points are indeed very similar to my thoughts (but I wouldn't have been able to describe it so to the point. )
I didn't get that. So this part needed some explaining for me.
Maybe it is because I missed the sarcasm/ humour in your response. It's hard to know if it isn't written down as a response. :)
