Elon Musk and Tesla

A few years ago, I saw Elon Musk as a beacon of innovation and a force for good—a brilliant engineer and entrepreneur who was genuinely pushing boundaries to combat climate change. I admired his boldness, his resilience, and his apparent commitment to a sustainable future. But over time, my admiration turned to disappointment and then disillusionment, as Musk’s focus shifted from visionary solutions to political controversy, conspiracy theories, and public feuds. In this reflection, I explore my journey from respect to regret, as I watch someone I once looked up to leverage his immense power for divisive ends, leaving behind the ideals that first inspired me.
