As someone who is exploring and learning about Buddhism, I understand why it's important to look at people like Elon Musk and see them as victims of their own fears, anxieties, and wrong views. The Buddha would offer compassion and love to these people and try to help them to transcend their own mental shackles to be truly free.
I am not the Buddha.
