Henry Maher (USydney), bravely, tries to makes some sense of Elon Musk... and actually he does a pretty good job of explaining quite what Musk seems to be doing (or seeking to do).
as he points out:
'Much of Musk’s online persona is part of a deliberate alt-right populist strategy to stoke controversy, upset “the left” & then claim to be a persecuted victim when criticised'!
But there's more to Musk than just this as Maher makes clear...
