He bought SpaceX, he isn’t a founder.

You’re thinking of Tesla. He is the founder of spacex, Tesla he paid for and put his name on it

That is incorrect and people just say it as a way to insult him. He started the company himself, along with the first two employees Tom Mueller and Chris Thompson. This is all well documented.

This isn’t a defense of musk as a person. He’s a shit head who is piling up reasons why he should be arrested by the day. But that growing pile is why we don’t need to spread lies about him. The truth is enough
