King Musk was very popular here at DU years ago, as were, and still are, the general cause of electric cars, but in defense of DU, understanding of the 2nd law of thermodynamics is not a requirement to engage in political thought.

It's too bad that understanding the laws of thermodynamics is not more generally embraced, however. Ignorance of them is the root cause of the collapse of the planetary atmosphere, King Musk merely a symptom.
