      IQ tests are combo test of how white and how autistic are you. All tests are biased, and what do you bet when he got his super special smart boy IQ label he was in South Africa and the test administrator was another white dude.

    I don’t remember the quote exactly but.

    “It’s just so dumb” “So dumb it’s genius” “No it’s just dumb”

    perfectly encapsulates musk.

    I understand that many people dislike Musk and disagree with his politics but to believe he is “lacking intellectually or is without exceptional achievement” is ridiculous. Precisely how many billion dollar companies have all these critics organized and successfully run? Exactly.
