If we want to give Musk some benefit of doubt the only visionary thing he did was SpaceX. Pretty much every other venture he's invested in has been either someone else's vision or something very stupid (like what the Boring Company is doing). I don't think he deserves to be called a visionary when his contribution isn't the vision but a fat wallet.

But how did his wallet so fat!?! He lifted himself by his bootstraps from a slump in Cape Town ... Oh wait, no. He is part of an elite, literal gemstone miners, group of people that most likely got where they are by by exploiting the non white population.
