I didn’t take it as a dunk on Tesla at all, you’re fine. I’m not a gatekeepong fanboy. I just find the conspiracy theorists that circle around his work irritating.

Highly likely he was autistic, which created a lot of problems for him getting so easily taken advantage of as he didn’t really get the business side of things and focused on his work. He made a lot of wild claims even though his inventions were amazing enough as they were.
