We DO NOT show sympathies toward someone this authoritarian and isolated from the society he is trying to destroy.
There is NO EXCUSE for his behavior.
I want him to get the help that he needs. Not because I sympathize with him to any degree (I don’t). But because I want him to stop ruining everything.
Well, maybe hold off until he’s killed the failwhale.
For greater good.
Trying to explain one’s behaviour as a psychological issue isn’t automatically sympathy towards the person.
Who is “we”?
“we” is people who know better than to excuse megalomania.
But nobody here is actually excusing Musk’s behaviour. You’re arguing against something that hasn’t been claimed, with weirdly authoritarian rhetoric at that.
People who are financially struggling while exhibiting his behavior may have NPD; people like Musk and Trump who dont have NPD, they have “affluenza”…they think that their wealth makes them literally superior to all societal norms and constraints. They have repeatedly proven throughout their lives that they can do whatever they want without consequence. It is time for it to stop.
