He’s definitely got some form of autism. When he was in high school he mocked a classmate for having a dad who committed suicide. That was his go to, not empathy, not sorrow, but his self absorbed brain fart that because killing yourself doesn’t make sense it’s worthy of ridicule.

I don’t think that is autism. I think that he’s in the realm of sociopathy and psychopathy.

Narcissists, and sociopaths/psychopaths usually have a very good understanding of the motivations, and emotions of other people and their own. It’s how they are so effective at manipulating people.

People on the autism spectrum on the other hand generally do not. A psychopath knows exactly why they were rude to someone, an autistic person says ‘I was rude?’

Elon Musk is not going around asking whether he was rude. He’s not even asking are people if he offended them or expressing remorse about people dying from his DOGE and USaid cuts.

He bought Twitter and let in the Nazis and white supremacists take over.

A person with autism will at least address the issue (unless they are in a meltdown or complete overwhelm). They might not be able to alter behaviours but they don’t relish the destruction of other people.

Elon Musk is an nuanced master manipulator. He has received billions of American taxpayer’s money and subsidies. He was on a student visa but not studying. He’s know exactly how to manage Trump. The investigations into his companies have ceased.
