Yea I know, literally SpaceX has helped NASA out a ton and do a lot of ground breaking work, but because musk is involved, they want all of his shit to fail
It is genuinely concerning the mentality round here, anything with musk must be bad and no one wants to even consider the possibility it's not. That's certainly not the only subject like that either, people are very clearly basing options on what suits their personal beliefs rather than what is baked up by fact.
but you don't pay attention to the actual impacts the companies have. SpaceX gets bashed a lot which is hilarious. There is no argument that SpaceX is bad. Like what, ULA was better? Throwing boosters in the ocean and charging $500 million+ per flight? SpaceX is objectively an amazing achievement that we should all be proud of.
Yep, waiting for all the bashing of AWS since bezo runs Amazon...the level of hate companies get that are tied to musk in anyway is insane. Musk is a mouth piece and a shit one at that but musk isn't making these companies and doing the work, hundreds of thousands of people are.
