He hasnt fallen. He's always been an arrogant asshole of average intelligence at best.
Reddit/Twitter were just ignorant of it because "cool electric car space man!" He just kept the crazy mostly under wraps. But the arrogant and stupid was always on display if you bothered to look.
All he had to do after introducing the Tesla 3 was hold onto the ball and run out the clock and most people wouldn't have realized what an odious sack of crap he is. But he's been an odious sack of crap all along
I initially thought he was cool because of Tesla but I think when he called that cave rescue guy a pedo I lost any respect and I soon realised what an awful person he is.
How anyone could defend him these days is totally beyond me.
Jokes aside about Elon being an idiot about this Twitter/Threads thing, that's a parody account, not actually Elon Musk, so it won't likely be used in court unfortunately.
