Neah, He's too into being loved and adored by (b)millions, why would he go with what could be at max a few hundred people there?

I would contribute to that GoFundMe for sure. Even if it doesn't explode, it will take him out of our hair for years.I think Musk will get on one of his rockets. That is the whole point of SpaceX, to get Musk into space and, eventually, to Mars.

If he is going to call for needing Senators to impeach a judge, he should at least know how many it takes, which is 67. A clear indication he doesn't know our constitution and has no business leading the charge on anything in our goverment, illegal or not.
“It’s really come as quite a shock to me that there is this level of, really, hatred and violence from the left,” Musk told Hannity. “I always thought that the left, you know, Democrats were supposed to be the party of empathy, the party of caring, and yet they’re burning down cars, firebombing dealerships, they’re firing bullets into dealerships, they’re smashing up Teslas. Tesla is a peaceful company. We’ve never done anything harmful.”
It definitely reminds me of the guy who said he thought Elon Musk was smart until he started talking about something the guy knew about.translation: how dare they try to stop our illegal and unconstitutional actions (aka a real coup).

Shhhh...don't tell him.He didn't get where he is by knowing how stuff works ￣\＿(シ)＿/￣
He knows how to con people, take credit for other people's work thru investing in tech companies where the actual geniuses do the work. Which is why him and Trump are so close.He didn't get where he is by knowing how stuff works ￣\＿(シ)＿/￣
Is it the left though? There are a lot of pissed off people on the right now, and they are the ones known for this kind of response. It kind of reminds me of Jan. 6 where the right tried to blame Antifa for their party's attack on the Capitol when it was them all along. Or the George Floyd Riots where a lot of the violance was instigated by right wing extremists.‘They Basically Wanna Kill Me’: Musk Alleges Cloak-and-Dagger Conspiracy Is Trying To Take Him Down

He is kinda right that he is a meme come to life I guess.

I always liked how in the mind of the right the 1/6 attackers went from ANTIFA/FBI plants (when they acknowledged attacking the capitol was wrong) to persecuted patriotic conservatives (when they decided attacking the capitol was ok, actually) with no explanation as to what changed.Is it the left though?

I despise Musk, but he has had major achievements at Tesla and SpaceX, with real products and real things that people like.He knows how to con people, take credit for other people's work thru investing in tech companies where the actual geniuses do the work. Which is why him and Trump are so close.
He's a great hype man mostly. I will give him that. The rest of the mythos around him is mostly just fantasy land.I despise Musk, but he has had major achievements at Tesla and SpaceX, with real products and real things that people like.
There's no denying that Tesla almost singlehandedly made EVs popular and showed that people are willing to give them a shot.
Yes, he has a Mythos around him. He has a cult and his intellect level is overhyped. He also likes to pump his stock and is full of it, selling things that don't exist are not close to existing (e.g. FSD in 2016, or whatever the original vision of Cybertruck was with pricing and abilities).He's a great hype man mostly. I will give him that. The rest of the mythos around him is mostly just fantasy land.
sure, but those truly are business achievements that came from the hard work of thousands. Musk was a very effective manager, aka sociopath CEO, in the sense that he drove Tesla really hard when it could have failed at various points. But as these things tend to go, he's gotten inordinate credit for Tesla's past success. In recent years, he's been a part-time CEO.I despise Musk, but he has had major achievements at Tesla and SpaceX, with real products and real things that people like.

Yeah, the only reason NASA was working with SpaceX was because Shotwell made the vast majority of the calls for the company, NOT Musk. NASA said as much. Musk is the primary obstacle to the actual success of SpaceX operationally. His genius mythos and his actual capabilities as a hype man, did draw the talent to spaceX, but fundamentally, the company is better off when he is insulated from actual operations.SpaceX does some cool stuff. I love seeing US aerospace companies leading the way.

He's not running day-to-day operations at SpaceX either, and again I'd be hesitant to say their achievements are his achievements.

Sure, he was a very effective manager/CEO at both companies. But the entire teams of thousands did the real work. Obviously I don't think the CEO is equivalent to a line worker in a factory. But it's a little reductive to say Elon himself achieved great things at Tesla and SpaceX. And yeah he's been an important part of successes; he's not just a snake oil salesman as some people claim.You now the entire full propulsive recovery of the Falcon-9 1st stage, it was Elmo that kept pushing his engineers to keep working on that problem even when they told him it was not possible.
The SpaceX use of densified propellant, it was Elmo that also pushed his engineers to figure out a way to use it reliably for the extra performance.
