The commenters on Ars hate Elon Musk but love SpaceX. The conflict can be "interesting" at times.

That sounds rather similar to the prevailing attitudes here and it seems fairly understandable.

Understandable yes, but it has reached the point of unnecessary dog piling. Ars also stokes the flames by featuring as many Elon headlines as possible, and they aren't particularly objective.
