    Elon Musk doesn’t have NPD. And accusing people of being disabled is not an epic burn. It’s only an insult if you think disabled people are worth less than neurotypicals. Sensible people don’t hate the disabled, so calling him a n*rcissist isn’t an insult.

    Calling him neurotypical is a bigger insult. Because it implies that all of his weirdness is a choice.
