I'm starting to wonder if Musk could be losing it.
We've all been worried about Biden and Trump.
The window between brilliance and mania can be quite easy to slip through.
And for those who are going to defend no matter what- I said "wonder" not "diagnosing" or anything even close to that.
I can make up words too.
Without seeing the documentation first, I’d say someone is suffering from Kool-aids.
Oh yeah, well now you got DN-Aids. And it's everywhere

‘Hotheads with guns': Chaos shuts down statehouse as Republican hurls profanities
TOPEKA — An intense confrontation between a Republican and Democrat on the Kansas House floor Thursday during a gun debate forced the chamber into a two-hour recess as leadership worked to deescalate tensions. Democrats accused Rep. Nick Hoheisel, a Wichita Republican, of trying to start a...

I would also assume his regular heavy use of psychedelic drugs and ketamine does not help with his mental health.

Musk has revealed he has a mental illness called Asperger's Syndrome. He seems to have it so bad that he probably embarrasses other people with Asperger's.
He is "self diagnosed".
There seems to be a trend lately when someone famous acts in an antisocial manner, they say they are autistic as a cover. It is an affront to people with the condition, IMO

“Self-diagnosed”?? Musk and his mom have been very public about having Asperger’s for years. His public statements has raised great awareness for autism and show that someone on the spectrum can be successful.
If you have questions about Musk being on the spectrum …watch his time hosting SNL and a TED Talk he gave in 2021. If you know even a little about Asperger’s and the spectrum of autism…I don’t think you will question that Musk is on the spectrum.

Water Issacson, who wrote a biography on Musk, wrote that why he does have some characteristics that overlap with the autism spectrum, he was never formally diagnosed. That is the definition of "self diagnosed".
Let's say you are right, he is indeed autistic. It still doesn't mean that using it as a cover for antisocial behavior is appropriate. Most people on the spectrum would never act that way.
Its telling that people in those communities are not happy about his actions as of late and trying to pass those behaviors on the condition.

Although I agree with you that people use things as a cover and as an excuse, I don’t think it applies here. As I have said previously my wife is a pediatric counselor that specializes in autism. I am NOT a doctor, but my observations of his mannerisms are definitely similar to what I see with her students/clients. I can attest that people on the spectrum absolutely can and do act and behave that way (again, suggest you watch when he hosted SNL —- it is fairly telling).

or he is a sociopath...
Again, even if you are correct that he has autism, it isn't an excuse for antisocial behavior.
This is like a schizophrenic blaming their condition for racism or someone with ADHD saying that it caused them to embezzle funds from a charity.

What antisocial behavior are you referring to? While people with autism are not necessarily antisocial, by your first sentence, I am not sure if you understand autism.
Autism is about a wide spectrum of conditions in which the individual has difficulties and challenges with integration with others, social interaction/communication, trouble identifying and applying social cues, building relationships, showing emotions, exhibiting empathy, etc. Most of those above I assume you would agree could be described antisocial. So yes a person with autism can absolutely exhibit antisocial behaviors.
We are not doctors, but with my experiences with people with autism, specifically high-functioning individuals, Musk absolutely has many of the same traits and behaviors. IMO, there is zero question he is on the spectrum.
We all know people on the spectrum and none of them have given a nazi salute. Not saying he isn't but medical conditions don't excuse inexcusable behavior.
