Recall that Elon Musk has been in the news ever since he indicated an interest in buying a major stake in Twitter.
Since then, his comments on the possible changes he would effect as the new owner of Twitter have continued to make the headlines.
Recently, Elon Musk: Superhero or Supervillain was aired on Channel 4, and Tesla’s CEO took it personally.
According to Marca, the documentary illustrates Musk’s public behavior as an online persona.
Musk generated controversy on Twitter questioning the efficacy of vaccines and expanding white supremacy talking points.
The documentary highlighted Musk’s achievements. However, it also showed the multimillionaire lawsuit that Tesla faced over racism allegations.
