There certainly seems like an unhealthy obsession and irrational anger towards him.

And why is there a new Twitter story every two minutes? It's driving me nuts. I feel like no one has anything better to do.

> irrational anger

I'm curious about your use of the term irrational, what is your worldview here. I guess I would imagine your world view to be that it's business so anything goes, and people shouldn't be emotionally attached, and that emotional attachment to a job or a community like twitter (the job or the product) is irrational?

Or is it that it isn't something you would get angry about and this is your subjective opinion, not that you try to put yourself in someone elses shoes and don't see the reason.

Because I don't see the anger as irrational, I could maybe see discussing wether or not it is _excessive_(which would be pretty subjective) but it seems plenty of people have rational reasons to be angry (if one can attribute 'ration' to emotion, which if not it would render the whole argument moot)

Agree 10,000%, Musk was loved and adored by the tech crowd, he even did a spot on the left leaning Big Bang Theory (a show I really enjoyed though I'm conservative in nature).
