He looked like a real world Tony Stark when he was surrounded by teams of smart people doing all the hard parts and PR for him.
What we're seeing now is pure unfiltered Musk. He was probably always like this, but now he's off the leash.
If you look back at his 'making us as multi planet species' era he had a lot of the same traits but since buying Twitter it's gone off the charts.
Probably because so many of his big ideas didn't pan out, when he was talking about Tesla being about the production line not the car I was optimistic but his factories never scaled like they were supposed to, never really got where they needed to be and I think it became clear they weren't going to get there.
I think he's had a lot of ego damage and it's messed with his head
