Err he's South African, probably shouldn't even be in the US if judged by the same standards as any other immigrant, Cybercab is a shit show and the campaign support was the sort of thing we'd expect from a Russian oligarch.

If you're going to give anyone credit, the thousands of SpaceX staff who keep this thing on the rails are who need some love.

Edit: so by the downvotes I would assume that people are happy to violate immigration laws, try to buy elections and completely pave over the achievements of the staff to be a billionaire simp? Enjoy your future under the boot.

Well, Trump aspires to be America's Putin, so that checks out...

Well exactly. It's not exactly as if there aren't enough well defined archetypes, methodologies and historical outcomes that fit this.
And yet here we are.

Let’s just admit we are a terrible species and wish the cockroaches better luck.

And they wouldn't work there if musk wouldn't fork tons of money and wouldn't aspire to the highest possible standard...

No musk fan here. He is an idiot, but probably a useful one.

There are plenty of engineers that won't work there because of Musk. Being divisive and unpredictable is not a good characteristic and not how you run a business.

Basically there are better ways without making the sacrifices that have been and will be made.
