Sometimes I truly wonder what the dude is up to... He does this, he named his kid the most random and weirdest name in history. Has being the wealthiest person in the world messed him up?

He's doing this for 1 reason and 1 reason alone... you won't be able to block ads which is as of this moment the websites biggest source of revenue.

But the block is only on the site itself, won't plugins such as Adblock and uBlock Origin have this effect as well and hence making it pointless? If it's for ads as you say...

Honestly no clue, Maybe something will get released that makes ad block plugins useless.

A Lot of drugs and often wonder if he's got other neurological issues - seeing him speak is like someone sundowning

To me he always seems like someone who was woken up from a deep sleep and then asked a question "Well I... what you... know can... errr... and it's... well"

Say what you want, but making fun of a man with Asperger's which impairs his social skills is quite low. He may have a bunch of out there ideas but it's pretty much just who he is.

I think for what he's done for the world is enough to let other things slide. Spurring the stagnant Auto industry to finally innovate at a rapid pace for EV and kicking NASA in the rear are more than enough for me to ignore his outlandish ideas(which I will admit are usually bad).

Why would I know the mental health status of someone I have zero interest in ? I don't read about him, I don't follow him, Aside from very random videos I don't watch him, I don't keep an eye on his personal life.

While I agree with what NBD said, I’m with Dice on this one to be honest.

You have zero interest but know enough to make fun of him? It's a well known issue he has and it came about for exactly the reasons you use to make fun of the guy. You have watched enough to know he has troubling speaking and it's very clear he had some sort of social issue.

To be clear I don't care nor follow him religiously like many do, but I stick to mocking his ideas instead of his speech personally.

For someone who doesn't care you do go on and on and on and on and on and on a lot

I posted two times on the matter. I'd hardly call that dragging out a conversation. Thank you for contributing your insults to this thread.
