Elon is desperate to be liked, the center of attention, a total egomaniac. He’s one of those people who will say or do whatever it takes for people to tell him he’s great and have them pay attention to him. Id argue even negative responses would be a positive to him as it’s still someone talking the time to listen to him.

Putting out messages of peace and love don’t get the same returns as messages of hate, because people expect peace and don’t need to add anything more to it. Not that long ago the scum of the internet wouldn’t bother to respond to a post like that.

But a message of hate will get the fascist voice cheering him on as one of their own and the voices for peace calling him out. On top of that, every time he posts some dumb shit it gets copied all over the socials, just like this, fueling that ego over and over.
