    Has anything good ever come out of SpaceX? Despite all his other stupidities, I’m under the impression, mainly from reading ars (technica), that this endeavor of his maybe isn’t so bad🚀. Actually, if he had just kept his mouth shut I might still think that he wasn’t such a bad guy.

      Although I have no proof, my intuition tells me that he purposefully says controversial things in order to remain in the news cycle. Heck, he may not even be the person that he pretends to be.

        Does it matter if he says those things honestly, or cynically to stay in the news cycle? An “ironic” alt-right creep is still an alt-right creep. The response should also be the same regardless: ignore the dweeb.

        The Twitter fiasco is undeniable proof that he’s just an idiot. That much fuckup, commercial, takeover, company, and policy fuckup can’t be intentional or “to stay in the news”.
