De "Sacré Elon Musk"... au débat sur le climato-scepticisme

Zubrin de Mars society a écrit:believes three qualities could fell Musk: his workaholism, his recklessness or a sort of earned hubris. “Great leaders become incapable of hearing criticism,” he says. “Why did Napoleon fail in Russia? Because every time before, he had succeeded. Plenty of French generals were saying, ‘Why don’t we just take Poland and be good?’ But every time in the past, the people who urged caution had been wrong.”

Slate a écrit:Donald Trump, Ted Cruz et d'autres Républicains ne vont certainement pas croire Dorsey quand il affirme tout faire pour que ses préjugés politiques restent en-dehors des prises de décision de son entreprise, surtout la prochaine fois qu'Alex Jones se fera bouter hors de son service. Rebelote du côté des progressistes qui auront du mal à croire que Dorsey ne flatte pas l'extrême-droite la prochaine fois qu'Alex Jones ne sera pas éjecté de sa plate-forme. Lorsqu'une entreprise qui façonne autant le cours du débat politique prend des décisions aux enjeux aussi élevés –sur qui a le droit de s'exprimer ou non–, difficile d'accepter que ces décisions soient le produit de directives consultatives ou d'un algorithme, et pas d'un calcul politique ou d'intentions secrètes.
Mais qu'on se rappelle aussi que, dans toutes ces polémiques, les réseaux sociaux font effectivement leurs calculs et ils n'ont absolument rien de secret. Ce qu'ils veulent, c'est faire du fric, et quand il faut décider qui peut dire quoi en ligne, l'option la plus lucrative consiste souvent à jouer au con.

Musk praised the popularity of Donald Trump's social media platform Truth Social,[29] and stated that it "exists because Twitter censored free speech". Trump created the alt-tech platform after Twitter banned him for inciting violence following the 2021 United States Capitol attack.[29] On May 10, 2022, Musk called Twitter's decision to ban Trump "morally wrong", and said that he will reverse Trump's ban when he buys Twitter.[30]

Elon Musk has been consistently critical of patents, which according to him "serve merely to stifle progress, entrench the positions of giant corporations and enrich those in the legal profession, rather than the actual inventors."[173] Under Musk's leadership, Tesla, Inc has opened its patents to being used by competitors

Musk has received criticism over his views on and actions related to the COVID-19 pandemic.[130] In early 2020, Musk referred to COVID-19 as a "specific form of the common cold", stated that "the coronavirus panic is dumb",[131][132][133][134] and that the "danger of panic still far exceeds danger of corona imo. If we over-allocate medical resources to corona, it will come at expense of treating other illnesses".[135][136] Musk has additionally been criticized for tweeting contentious claims on the disease, including that "Kids are essentially immune, but elderly with existing conditions are vulnerable", which he accompanied with a graphic showing that no children had died in Italy by March 15[137][138][139] and for saying "Based on current trends, probably close to zero new cases in US too by end of April."[130][140][141][142] In addition, he promoted articles which suggested that healthcare companies were inflating COVID-19 case numbers for financial reasons, promoted a paper on the benefits of chloroquine that was subsequently widely discredited and pulled down by Google, and retweeted a video calling for an immediate end to social distancing measures, adding "[d]ocs make good points".[143][144]

When the Alameda County Sheriff ordered all non-essential businesses to shut down, Musk and Tesla initially refused to comply, arguing that vehicle manufacturing and energy infrastructure are critical sectors, citing the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.[145][146] Musk called the lockdown "fascist" on a Tesla earnings call, stating:

So, the extension of the shelter-in-place, and frankly I would call it forcibly imprisoning people in their homes against all their constitutional rights — my opinion — and erasing people's freedoms in ways that are horrible and wrong, and not why people came to America or built this country.[147]

Musk later sent out numerous tweets opposing mandatory lockdowns such as "FREE AMERICA NOW."[148] On May 11, Musk reopened Tesla's Fremont production line in defiance and violation of Alameda County's orders and tweeted that "Tesla is restarting production today against Alameda County rules. I will be on the line with everyone else. If anyone is arrested, I ask that it only be me."[149] Musk also announced that Tesla would be moving headquarters to Texas or Nevada and that Tesla had filed a lawsuit against Alameda County challenging its "shutdown" of the Fremont factory; the suit was subsequently withdrawn

On the topic of subsidizing companies, Musk has stated that he does not believe the U.S. government should provide subsidies to companies but should instead use a carbon tax to price in the negative externality of climate change and discourage poor behavior. Musk says that the free market would achieve the best solution, and that producing environmentally unfriendly vehicles should come with its own consequences.[183] Musk has acquired large subsidies in the past.
