I saw a headline just after his death - "Was Kaczynski right all along?". Damning that such a headline could be approved by a mainstream media outlet, even considering today's cultural morass.

I agree, though sadly I think that question’s taken seriously across the spectrum. What’s worse is that Elon Musk, who is otherwise admirable in certain respects, is the one asking it.

Musk is a mixed bag. I trust only what he does, but nothing he says. Sometimes I fantasize that he's just taking a cue from Francisco d'Anconia's playbook of acting the fool to coverup some noble plan he must keep secret.

I think that’s a good way of thinking about him. He’s definitely mixed. On important issues, such as providing serious support and means for expressions of free speech, he’s very good, though.
