Contrary I do believe Elon cares about ordinary Brazilians, and ordinary people globally; and what a neat mechanism that him creating highly competitive products and services, allows people to vote for him with their dollars, feeding him, his organizations, and arguably his missions.
Also, do you fully consciously notice your own bias when it comes to Musk? Did you notice using the word "caving" and some other options came to mind, or that is exactly and only what came to mind?
I think it’s bunk to think Musk cares about ordinary Brazilians. But it’s a coherent argument.
