What a fucking loser.
Wow, what insightful analysis and commentary.
You call him a loser, someone whose been responsible for the development of the first truly reusable rockets, beating any other system for cost to orbit by a couple orders of magnitude. He's rolling in so much dough he could squander pretty much all of it for the rest of his life, but instead chose to do something with his money and influence.
I mean, yea, I don't personally like the guy, but what a shit take, no observation upon the how's/why's of what he's doing, just an insult.
He clearly has some kind of agenda. To just dismissively name call prevents any opportunity to discover what he's up to. I'll admit I can't figure him out. With Twitter it seems he's all about destroying the platform, which is a good thing in my mind. But SpaceX has done more than anyone else to reduce cost to orbit, material consumption, and develop more environmentally friendly fuels.
Do you really think he's just making emotional decisions? Someone who's been described as being on the autism spectrum by some folks?
What have you done again? Glass houses and all that, ya know?
Hahah, bunch of "loser" downvoters.
Do ya all realize what that says about you?
You're more interested in a comment insulting someone than trying to figure out what's going on. You're so emotionally driven, like children, you can't even think about things.
Please, what I said is accurate, regardless of how you all "feel" about him. SpaceX would not be doing what it is today, if it weren't for him.
We're truly fucked because of people like you. Bunch of jackasses in glass houses.
Personally if there was an opportunity for a freaky Friday situation and I could switch lives with Musk, I would turn that down in a heart beat.
He's rich, and did contribute to some impressive things in the past (he did not accomplish them himself), but that's really all he has going for him.
He's not a good person, most people dislike him, I don't find him to be very intelligent in a lot of areas, his wife left him, all he has is money. I don't think it would be a very good trade.
I’d soon as rather inhabit the body of a turkey with leukaemia than Musk thanks
