  • I mean, we should be able to hate Elon Musk while still respect the fact that, SpaceX as a company has done incredible things.

    You say NASA could’ve done it for cheaper, but their track record is not great. Apollo program, historical, but was very expensive. Then the Space Shuttle, then the SLS, they are all extremely expensive compared to, not just Falcon 9, but also Russia or China’s offerings.

    I hate Musk but I am also passionate about space… So yeah, I don’t know how to process this. Maybe it’s fine for people to just believe SpaceX did nothing good as long as that gets more people to hate Musk… I really don’t know (help me)



















  • What deals? Trump’s tariff against the US numbers are made up, they are US trade deficits. Are other countries supposed to lower this number somehow? Is he forcing them to stop exporting to the US? Well that’s going to have the same effect as tariffs, right? Or is he going to force them to buy more US products? First of all, that’s straight up Mafia behavior; but also the US just doesn’t manufacture that much to begin with.

    How is this going to make any sense.
