I find the evidence being asserted unclear. Is the entire thought here based on what hours of the day he’s posting on X? Is it rather the content of his X posts that is the strongest indication? Or is it what Musk has said in his recent televised appearances? I’ve found him reserved and even-spoken in the clips I’ve watched, though I don’t read his X posts, so I am having trouble understanding why you think this in the first place.
Musk has just been on Ted Cruz’s podcast, and gave his take on everything from the purpose of DOGE to where AI and robotics will be ten years from now (AI smarter than the smartest human, humanoid robots everywhere, all goods and services essentially free). He sounded about as sane as a risk-taking tech CEO who managed to become the main character on the eve of singularity, could be.
I’ve just noticed in the main post, the reference to “high-functioning” bipolar individuals. I hadn’t even realized that is an allowed concept, I had assumed that bipolar implies dysfunctional… I feel like these psychological speculations are just a way of expressing alienation with who he has become. It’s bad enough that his takes are so mid and his humor is so cringe, but now he’s literally allied with Trump and boosting similar movements worldwide.
If someone finds that an alien headspace to contemplate, it might be more comforting to believe that he’s going crazy. But I think that in reality, like most members of today’s right wing, he’s totally serious about trying to undo 2010s thinking on race, gender, and nation. That’s part of his vision for the future, along with the high technology. When I think of him like that, everything clicks into place for me.
