On the one hand I want to enjoy Musk failing, but at the same time I want to praise the people who are putting all their time and effort into the project, so this comment speaks to me.
Really? Because I'm actually pretty pissed off that a shit load of American tax dollars went to this fuck face's shitty corporation instead of NASA just so he could do everything as cheaply and shittily as possible and it could blow up like the dumpster fire it is as a result. May as well have had that Nazi fuck burn the money on a live Twitter feed while he laughed in our face and flipped us all off.
You do realize that most of the money NASA has given SpaceX has been in the form of contracts to launch missions for them? I'm pretty sure very minimal tax dollars are going to Starship development right now, especially compared to other launch providers (ULA, Blue Origin, ect.) It's because of SpaceX that America is able to launch Astronauts to space without using Russia since the Space Shuttle was retired.
Take a break dude
Yeah, I was venting. I took like a two day break lol. That guy really pisses me off.
