Listen all space related things were ego projects of Nazis to start with, but they're the reason you can shit post right now.
The reason we even tried is a Nazi had a dream and the Americans gave absolute clemency.
Gather 'round while I sing you of Wernher von Braun...
Defending and acknowledging history are two different things. Yes the entirety of space exploration started because we forgave a few Nazis; now we have gps and can shit post from anywhere, also beds are infinitely better.
Therefore yes, Elon is a Nazi, however with reusable rockets and starship's inflight refueling, we get an excuse to invent way crazier shit that has normal use cases as we flail among the planets.
