6. I think he does on some level. Narcissists and bullies usually have an inferiority complex

they're overcompensating for. But that need to overcompensate means they'll double down on attacks on people they secretly envy.

And Musk is rich enough to have bought a social media platform for himself, and he now believes he can attack anyone with impunity and get a Twitter mob behind him.

The world's biggest schoolyard bully, with the world's biggest bullhorn.

He was at 120 million Twitter followers, the last time I checked. From what I've read, a lot of those are just bots, and a lot are also people who are NOT wanting to follow him, who've found themselves added to his list of followers against their will.

But it's still a huge audience, and he's reveling in it.
