It’s always fun to play is he weirdly out of touch because he’s a billionaire or is he weirdly out of touch because he’s autistic. I think this might be a bit of both.
Hand gestures don’t come naturally to everybody. Some people learn them just to fit in and some try and evoke the same emotions from them without understanding the emotions or the motions completely because they’re just not physically capable of connecting those brain synapses. Add to that the fact Elon doesn’t hang out with normal people. He only hangs out with engineers and sycophants. So he doesn’t get to naturally see people in their everyday environment. He only sees people acting in videos and then he tries to imitate that and the sycophants and engineers around him applaud him. The dumb shit he says gets retweets so he thinks everyone agrees. Then he goes out into the real world and continues parroting this end stage meming with gestures he learned from Hitler speaches, not realizing the jerky movement was due to low frame rate and high meth rate, and is stun locked when everybody else is trying to figure out what the fuck is happening. And what the fuck is happening is that we are witnessing a man who is so far up his own ass that even basic hand gestures are oddly shitty.
He claims to be autistic. As far as I know, there has never been a formal diagnosis. But he sure does like to use it to excuse the things he says and does.
People are also speculating drug use, and I personally wouldn’t rule that out considering just how stressful his life currently is. Hell, I feel as though his hairline has receded a bunch (again) too.
I think it’s likely that’s it’s a mixture of all three. Drug use (even some completely above-board prescriptions. I know that my ADHD prescription makes me act strangely when I’m low on sleep or over-caffeinated) would dull his ability to mask his other behavioral idiosyncrasies, which could originate with his placement on the spectrum and the fact that he’s surrounded by sycophants. But who fucking knows.
Isn’t it fun playing armchair doctor for Elon Musk! If you’re wrong, who are you hurting, fuck that guy. And if you’re right, it’s fucking hilarious because fuck that guy.

I think it might be tourette’s, my son has the same jerkey movements but without the verbal symptoms.

I’m not so self-involved as to think my anonymous comments have any material impact on Elon’s well-being, but if they did I’d be pleased.
Fuck the rich, but especially fuck the fascist ones.
