Written standpoint on Elon Musk

“When something is important enough, you do it even if the odds are not in your favor.” “Some people don’t like change but you need to embrace change if the alternative is a disaster.” said the man who has faced a lot of controversy lately.

My personal opinion on this topic is that Elon Musk’s power is a problem but he also has created a lot of great inventions and is an extremely clever man.

The first example that supports my opinion is how lately he has been getting a little too involved in politics. By this I mean how he started a campaign in a swing state offering 1 million US dollars a day to anyone who voted for Trump which has now given him a higher political status. He also made a video on x showing him and a German election party leader together and has now congratulated the winning party in the election who he had recently endorsed.

In the second example I will talk about how Elon Musk owning x can be a problem and his fame on social media. For example ever since he bought x the usage of hate language has skyrocketed and the EU (european union) is not very happy about it.

In my third example I will talk about how he doesn’t use his money properly. I have never heard anything about him donating any money to charity even though he is the richest man on the planet with a networth of over 400 million dollars and insead to humiliates people who work for charity. He actually grew up in poverty and was very poor but now he has a lot of money he doesn’t support people who live in poverty which I don’t find very kind because most other people who grew up in poverty and are now famous now have all donated money to various charities.

Another important question before I end the standpoint is what is he going to do next especially since he is now a government advisor? What conflict is he going to cause now?

In conclusion his power is a problem and there are so many things that make him powerful and all together that gives him too much power, that he uses it in the wrong way, and struggles to know what to do with it and use it in a mature way.
