It’s starting to look like he was always crazy, and most of us didn’t see it until recently.

Yeah it didn’t really become apparent to the public until the Pedo Guy incident in 2018.

This article by his ex-wife from 2010 is pretty insightful, though. Lots of red flags.

Idk... He used to donate towards democrats and market his companies as LGBT friendly. I think things started to turn for him when one of his daughters came out as trans. After that he got radicalized and started abusing ketamine and coke.

I mean, he was always a little crazy... but not like this!

More like he was always crazy and he kept it away from the public until recently. His relationship with his daughter seems to confirm that.
Shame that his name will forever tarnish the amazing achievements of the engineering teams of SpaceX...
