      I enrolled in Aerospace Engineering in 2018 because of Musk.

      Part of why I never graduated was the gradual loss of faith in the person who had inspired me. Although he has actually never changed.

      I remember on Reddit one awful “This is Musk. He didn’t like ___, so he invented ___” picture with like 4 examples of things he stole and a stick figure with his head. “Be like Musk” was the bottom text. I agreed with it at first, then I saw it like 6 more times.

      Being annoyed at those constant repost made me leave his fan club pretty quick. Oh how naive I was, thinking the worst thing he could be was annoying.
